The school shooter stopped by an armed school guard that nobody wants to talk about.

1st and 4th articles : "Police can't be trusted with guns"
2nd and 3rd articles : "Only police should have guns"

Also a pox on your house for making me click Guardian links

Kind of sad that a regular high school needs a police officer to guard it full-time. Also kind of sad that the country then calls this a "school resource officer". I mean he's a policeman. Just call him a policeman.

...

And news just breaking:

Santa Fe, Texas, School Shooting Leaves Multiple People Dead; Suspect Is in Custody

[Note: the Santa Fe that immediately comes to my mind is in New Mexico (not Texas). My informant just told me that there are many Santa Fes in the US.]

We should close the borders and keep school students out. Some of them are very dangerous: https://www.theage.com.au/world/north-a ... 4zg8i.html

I suppose it's much easier to blame the guns than to tackle the far more interesting (ie harder) problem of why kids are choosing to shoot each other in the playground to begin with.

Agree.

This kid apparently had a .38 revolver and a shotgun. No paramilitary gear, so it's hard to blame this one on lax gun laws.
