Something I don't hear anyone talking about with the Parkland school shooting

[Ohioboy]

There was a good guy with a gun on site.

Broward County Sheriff Scott Israel confirmed that accused mass murderer Nikolas Cruz managed to shoot up the Parkland high school without ever encountering the school resource deputy.

“He was on campus and he was armed,” Israel said. “At this point, the only thing I can tell you definitively is he never encountered Cruz.”

1. I wish someone would be informed enough to mention this to Red Don

2. Right...which is why I asked on another thread if those

put in charge of the guns (this fellow or armed teachers) would be held liable for possibly failing in their 'duties' running from a hailstorm of bullets?.
Will armed teachers be liable?

6. I doubt that

But how about stray bullets from teachers killing kids? That is where schools might be liable. Teachers just aren't highly qualified and trained for that.

9. Or cops not knowing which gun-wielding person is the active shooter and which ones are

the "good guys with guns."

maybe they'll just have to kill all the people with guns and "let God sort them out."

3. The NRA and the Moron know one guy is not enough

and that is why they want to arm 20% of the teachers. That is their ass backwards, twisted, illogical reasoning.

4. They're argument is that this is why teachers should be armed

It's cheaper than hiring more guards.

5. See, there just weren't ENOUGH guns and cops on campus

An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind...

but teachers are supposed to do better than a police officer

8. So it WAS the case that he consciously fled.

Not sure why I suspected this, but it was a feeling.
