1. How about zero doors?

And if that is a problem, then how about zero guns?

2. We have several "open plan" schools here

Every classroom opens to the outside. It was a design THING in the 60's/70's

3. How many schools have "portakabins"?

i.e. temporary classrooms that have ended up in permanent use? You know... the ones that bake in summer and are freezing in winter?

If people want to have schools designed with a single entrance/exit then there's gotta have to be a lot of money thrown at schools to rebuild.

8. I had one of those portabakes for 2 years

There are two doors near my room. People can go out, but not come in. However, glass can be broken and we are on an outshoot. I have talked extensively with my students about what to do and what not to do.

Thank GOD our school year was over Wed.

4. In case of fire

everyone run for the one exit. What a stupid idea. Anything to deflect from the real issue.

5. This:

The Cocoanut Grove Fire was a nightclub fire in the United States. The Cocoanut Grove was a premier nightclub during the post-Prohibition 1930s and 1940s in Boston, Massachusetts. On November 28, 1942, it was the scene of the deadliest nightclub fire in history, killing 492 people (which was 32 more than the building's authorized capacity) and injuring hundreds more. The scale of the tragedy shocked the nation and briefly replaced the events of World War II in newspaper headlines.

Now double or triple the crowd and add gunfire...

12. +1000

Anyone who thought that idea over for more than a minute would realize how stupid and dangerous it is.

15. Remember who we're dealing with here.....

7. or maybe he would have just stood there and shot them when they ran out....

dumbfuck

9. Of course, that's the difference between US schools and schools in the rest of the world ...

... we have more doors in our schools. How could we have missed that?

10. Maybe - Or...

Maybe he would have gotten in and nobody else could get out

11. WTF. Is this the new NRA talking point.

13. There was a shooting at the New Castle County Courthouse

It had two entrances near the front. The shooter shot himself, but could have run out the other entrance; so they closed the second entrance at the advice of some security firm. Like if he had not killed himself, it would be better for him to stay in the building than run out of it.

14. Umm, fire,

Abbott is an idiot.
