I would be willing to give up all my fire arms if it truly meant we would never have another school shooting. We all have kids and can’t imagine losing one. I think this administration missed an opportunity to draw attention via holding up the spending limit. It gets extended once some sort of national action happens. Without that sort of thing these conversations in our little forum are meaningless.

It sounds like some faculty members from the school my face charges as well.

I agree with our resident Canadian.

So now its my fault? What can I do to fix the gun problems in our country? To quote Charlie Daniels: Now they're trying to take my guns away And that would be just fine If you take them away from the criminals first I'll gladly give you mine

Not that it matters but this actually was a Sheriff at the door.

Awful.... Yes he should be charged. I have multiple fire arms, my kids have never seen them because they stay locked in a safe. If we can't change the law to stop this kind of dumb shit then please charge with the full extent of the law. Does Michigan have the death penalty?

Started watching Yellowstone streaming on Peacock. Fantastic show, Costner is top shelf.

That didn’t take long

No idea. But somone walks into building alarm goes off and SRO searches student, finds gun. How does this not work? Also if said student knows there is a metal detector they don't try to bring gun? I know these are out in leftfield ideas sorry to waste anyones time. Please, refer back to your study.

Only way to fix gun problems is with legistlation right? So lets do it! In the mean time if tighter security could prevent the next school shooting right? I am perplexed that this gets so much static.

So to recap: Security and Detectors Bad. Arggggh republicans arghhh (Are dems not in control of both houses?) Hugs and kisses not thoughts and prayers are good.

So you live in Chicago right? They don't have SRO's and metal detectors at most schools? Is it the best answer no. But unless you can get policy/ laws changed before the next shooting that is sure to come do we just throw our hands up and say oh well?

I guess its a better approach than thoughts and prayers? If I am not mistaken 90-95% of school shootings happen inside the building. Make it harder to bring a weapon in?

Agreed, in fact a few years back I sold a handgun via private sale. I obtained a copy of his Drivers License and filled out a bill of sale and we both signed. A year or so later I was contacted by the State Police and was told the gun was used in a crime ( I bought new and registered). They came to my house and made copies of the documents. I found out later the person I sold the gun to had it stolen and never reported it.

Do most High Schools in Michigan have SRO personal on site? My little town in Indiana have 2-3 at each of the 7-8 high schools in town. I only know this from my time on a PK-8 school board and we were improving our security presence so we were gauging schools in the area.

Not the answer but every school should have a metal detector and a resource officer/ cop.

Not comparing, they are apples and oranges. Still pretty pathetic that the ol boy club never changes.

New report this is a 7 year deal.

Big media will pay ZERO attention to this. Do as I say not as I do.......

That's awful to hear.... Prayers that she will get encouraging information from the doctor.
