Still, gun control advocates say bleeding-control kit efforts allow lawmakers to avoid dealing with the cause of school shootings.
Legislators have ignored numerous proposals aimed at reducing gun violence, including Brady’s “End Family Fire,” she said. According to a Wall Street Journal analysis, 75 percent of school shootingsin their homes. End Family Fire encourages the safe storage of weapons to make it more difficult for children to access unsecured guns.
“If, God forbid, something happens, you really want to know there is someone right there beside you who can do something,” said Jacobs. “If you can keep the blood inside the body until you reach the hospital, you have a phenomenal chance for survival.”
This is so horrible and the people put in power do nothing but sit back and make poor decisions putting kids in more danger
We got our bleed control kits two years ago and the training was crazy to think about. I stuffed pretend deep wounds with gauze and tied it with a tourniquet. We have kits, bags, boxes everywhere in our school.
We could make a system is schools that make gun not work in schools period some kind of pulse energy that locks firing pins in weapons or make manufacturers of assault rifles create a system where the guns are not able to fire on school property there is options!
All exterior doors would lock also so no shooters from hall to hall you want to isolate that shooter or shooters and trap them in place if you barricade the shooter or shooters you have a huge tactical advantage off the bat!
Once a code red or active shooter situation is identified 911, or school officials can imitate an automatic door lock sequence all doors would lock simultaneously yes some people might be left in the hall ways but least you have most kids safe we must implement technology.
The only way to combat this problem is to think of it as a war what do I do to protect myself from the enemy but yet be able to still have a setting that supports learning, you want the protection but you want it to be hidden mostly that’s how we keep kids alive!
It’s time to build school classrooms like fortresses, walls should be made of bullet proof materials all windows bullet proof, doors with automatic electronic locking systems, with biometric finger scanners for teachers locking gun boxes built into walls around campus with codes
Change the police academies curriculum at little and have grades 1 thru 12 at police acadamies . Safety and education. Or , hire private armed contractors for protecting Students and Teachers , other staff members as well from gun fire .
Hired security guard at the entrance door, where has common sense gone?
If my kid was to get shot or fall and hit an artery and needed that kit I would rather the schools have them!
My heart breaks for the children in America. The land of opportunity has become an open air asylum run by a lunatic and his mob of angry self serving NRA paid sycophants. 😢
God, I can't believe that we have come to living in a society, where it would be a good idea to have a kit to stop the bleeding after our kids have been shot in school...
Thanks MoscowMitch and the GOP
I retired from the education system a couple of years ago. Glad I did so I don't have to be in danger of being shot!
All Russian Trump NRA bullshit
Since the Republicans chose gun manufacturers and the NRA over implementing proactive solutions to the problem, bulletproof backpacks and other tools to survive are needed.
This is Bullshit!!! Our politicians don't care!
😢💔
Would hate to impede Bubba from fully realizing his gun fetish with anything 'well regulated.'
WHEN are the people of this Country going to get their PRIORITIES STRAIGHT?! What is more important?! Lives or guns?!
Backpacks with level 3 protections . . . MAGA
Just to go to school in America. smh
That's the sad reality.
