    Gee I guess we couldn't have trained security like we do everywhere else.

    Makes sense.

    The Florida shooting was a Local police failure. Nothing more, nothing less.

    The good guy with a gun.

    So a trained cop is too scared to fight back but we expect teachers to be able to stop a mass shooter?

    You have one job in a school shooting scenario. Officers are to bypass all the wounded, dying, screaming kids and move as quickly as possible to locate and shoot the bad guy. It's that simple.

    This is what happens when you lower standards. These people need to be weeded out during training but that's not happening. It's not happening because they simply need the bodies. So few of todays younger people can pass a police background check or psych test as well as the polygraph. Most departments are understaffed. Corners are being cut.

    No, no, it’s not. From the Chief:

    All of our police department personnel strive each day to provide excellent customer service to the community and our stakeholders. The twenty sworn personnel have more than 400 years of combined law enforcement and investigative experience that they bring to work with them each day.

    I now suspect the Cowardly Sherriff with the Sand Packed Pussy volunteered for the School detail figuring there was zero chance of any danger.

    I also suspect the Elected County Sherriff, his Boss, as well as the Real deputies on the street doing the Real work, knew he was Cowardly with a Sand Packed Pussy as well.

    Yep. I agree completely.

    This is not my typical reaction to a doogie post.

    We may be making some progress here.

    Yeah.



    I checked myself.

    Everything seems to be in order. Still a little bit freaked out, though.

    I can't say I'm shocked.

    Some people are made for charging at an armed assailant. Most aren't, and that includes school guards, cops, and soldiers. Not everyone is Audie Murphy - but nobody on Earth would have looked at Audie Murphy before the war and thought he'd be the enemy-charging bad motherfucker he was.

    You can't teach that shit. You're born with it.

    Has anyone figured out the cost of training, arming, and deploying these school guards? Will that be taken out of the schools' budgets, or will the worthless fucking politicians offering that solution figure out another way to fund it?

    Having armed security sounds like a decent idea to me, but some are making it sound like the only fix we need. It isn't. If I was plotting against you, you'd better fucking have more than an armed teacher to stop it, or it would not turn out well. These shooter fucking kids go to these schools - they know who's a legit threat and who's just a clown with a gun. They know the schedules, the weaknesses, and the Achilles heels of the plans to stop them. I don't think any "system" to protect kids and schools is up to the task.

    Again, I'll offer no solution - just criticism of stupid plans that haven't been thought through for shit.

    So this begs the question


    are you plotting against me?
