(818 posts)1. You know what else would thwart active shooters in schools?
Getting rid of the fucking guns.

It's absurd to have to reverse engineer doors that are designed to facilitate exiting.
The 16-year old in Santa Clarita got his gun somewhere. That person was negligent, and I don't care if it was his parents. Prosecute them.

I suppose every single door in every single school could be changed, and door sleeves stashed near the new doors. And no one will ever steal or hide one of those door sleeves, right?
Actually, it would be easier and probably cheaper to confiscate all the guns out there.
