Schools Are Spending Billions on High-Tech Defense for Mass Shootings

Reminds me of a time in middle school, before all this school shooter nonsense; a friends father was moving his kids to private school and when I asked why, I was told he wanted them in a safer (richer) school. I was confused and replied that our school was safe, "we have full time cops at the school" - his reply was, "exactly, the point is that there shouldn't be". It was profound for me at the time, and thinking about it - it was normal to look out the class window and see cop cars and k-9s and hear stories about drugs and weapons being found. Classrooms were packed and teachers still didn't get much support from the district.
For some reason there is always money for this nonsense but not things like free lunch or even like projector bulb replacements.
At best it can help guide the police, but that's a tall order in the moments that matter.
This isn't reddit, nobody thinks you all are clever.
If "dancing on the graves of dead children" actually meant something, posting snarky one-liners from the safety of your privileged lives to jerk each other off for invisible points that nobody else can even see, would probably count.
We need legislation to fix these issues but all we get are these business contracts that do nothing but line the pockets of politicians and their friends
There are far more family and friends of victims in Uvalde, much more likely to find your heinous comment, trying to make light of a tragedy, absolutely needlessly.
You are not commenting on a CFR document, furthering public discourse.
You can dress it up all you want, these comments are disgusting, do nothing to add value to any sane discourse in any way, and are a direct attempt to make a small dopamine hit for yourself, all from a tragedy that I am sure you believe you personally would had superman'd into.
no good faith thoughts, just shit keyboard drivel. disgusting, you and all the thoughtless NPC's that further endow snarky dim-witted remarks from a national tragedy should be ashamed -- had you had an ounce of agency, an iota of empathy, a semblance of self-reflection...
"should be ashamed"...yea, let us hear what you know of shame
There are far more cops than there are even acquaintances of mass shooting victims (let alone family/friends, let alone the victims themselves). Statistically speaking, your statement is in all likelihood the opposite of correct.
> all from a tragedy that I am sure you believe you personally would had superman'd into.
Unlike a cop, I don't put on a badge and uniform and go around insisting that I should be given special legal privileges and immunities on the basis of protecting innocent lives from crime.
Your anger is misplaced. Instead of directing it at those who allow tragedies like that of Robb Elementary School to happen under their noses, you instead choose to shoot the messenger. Criticisms of the Thin Blue Line hitting a bit close to home there, bud?
4chan qanon mask off I see! Very interesting, everyone knows the type of person that uses these phrases
Are you red pilled or black pilled bro?
It's amazing how a small phrase used in that way is so revealing.
Your comments ring hollow because you haven't provided any evidence or counterargument that the police fulfilled their duty properly and that the deaths were at least unavoidable the moment the shooting started.
For what? Calling out the abject failure of the State's goons in fulfilling their "Protect And Serve" marketing slogan? Voicing a lack of trust in said goons of the State to actually do the right thing?
If "dancing on the graves of dead children" actually meant something, using fear of mass shootings to sell boondoggles on the basis of "think of the children" would absolutely count.
you made a shitty remark with no purpose other to gloat in the tragedy.
some heal through humor, but making the same "cops bad upvote please" remarks is not that, that is a sick quip by an attention-seeking individual.
Coward cops and tools enabling cops to be cowards sure go hand in hand, yes.
> you made a shitty remark with no purpose other to gloat in the tragedy.
Correction: I made a shitty remark with no purpose other than to call out LEOs for the cowards they are. That you're so offended by me ribbing the poor widdle police officers for their utter incompetence speaks volumes.
Those cops definitely shot kids
The fact our courts have decided that the police are unaccountable for both active harm they cause, and harm through negligence is a huge problem for a lot of the citizenry.

Boston Dynamics’ Spot would actually be pretty great, again with no autonomous capability.
A script kiddie and a shooter maybe.
I mean, the other interpretation is that school shooters use these robots to shoot the school up.
The shooter has multiple convictions for violence, is treated for paranoid schizophrenia, had known relations to a radicalized Islamist community, and was interviewed by the security service in May. He had about every red flag you can think of. Yet, he was able to get access to a an automatic weapon of some sort, despite the regulations having become stricter after the terror attack in 2011
It would behoove your analysis to consider American gun legislation through this lens. It might even prompt an original thought.
