Can Government Officials Be Trusted With Our Children’s Lives?
We know how to stop mass public violence, but, too often, we chose not to. Government has trouble filling a pothole. Sometimes it needs our help.

"Our active shooter response, in the school district I work in, are strictly designed to minimize casualties, not to prevent or stop a shooting."No, no, and hell no.

We still have multiple access points to the building, yes the doors are locked but they are glass. We have one SRO, who has to cover multiple schools, and faculty isn't allowed to carry.
The choices that were made are a balance between responding to the concerns and keeping the mob happy. The decisions that should be made are the ones that provide the highest probability of keeping the school safe.
We take the drills seriously, but even our SRO admits that we are just trying to buy three minutes for other LEO to respond."Our active shooter response, in the school district I work in, are strictly designed to minimize casualties, not to prevent or stop a shooting."
Exactly. The school system I worked in has random (majority of teachers do not know when they're scheduled) lock-down drills. Every school in the county thankfully has a city or county LEO assigned to the building. There have been off-season/weekends when the buildings are empty, city and county law enforcement, fire, and medical folks are practicing ingress/egress drills in the school buildings. The school lock-down drills are taken seriously by students and staff alike.
"...just trying to buy three minutes for other LEO to respond."We take the drills seriously, but even our SRO admits that we are just trying to buy three minutes for other LEO to respond.
Sadly people will probably be shot and die in those three minutes.
That is the problem with many things today...we simply put our efforts into managing/minimizing many things not working toward solutions to endNo, no, and hell no.
