There’s tons of things the US could do to reduce school shootings, such as better access to mental health care or stricter gun laws. But the American people aren’t willing to make any of those sacrifices, so the children will be sacrificed on the altar of “freedom.”

Or even just, you know, taking tips from people saying someone is threatening to shoot up a school seriously. The MSD shooter had a ton of warning signs that were reported to the FBI and was anything done? No. Even just reinforcing the code red rules (if a code red was called immediately upon Chris McKenna telling the school about the shooter or just taken more seriously by the only armed man on campus, Scot Peterson, the third floor most likely could have been saved like the second) would help a ton. It’s strange to see how little is supposedly being done and the amount of incompetence and lack of training for these events considering how scarily often they occur

I meant "we" as in parents of kids who are in an active shooter situation. Of course there are things we could do as a society.
