Like a frequent airline passengers, We would know the routine. Students put their identification badges on. Any belt buckles, phones or other metal go into their backpacks for detection......, and students learn how long to pause before walking through the body scanner.
The students and PARENT know, that there is always some anger and fear somewhere in the neighborhoods that could ENTERS into their schools...... and it does ENTER INTO THE SCHOOLS WITHOUT A DOUBT...
Typically, the debate about metal detectors in schools boils down to advocates calling for metal detectors in an effort to, “Do everything we can possibly do to make schools safer.” Opponents of metal detectors in schools frequently oppose them out of their belief that metal detectors will create a “prison-like” environment and thereby adversely implicate the climate of the school. Opponents also point to the costs of the metal detector equipment.
I understand there is no single strategy, or for that matter even a combination of strategies, that can provide 100% guarantee that there will not be another act of violence at a school.
BUT LETS NOT WAIT UNTIL IT DOES
