Wtf Oh, Florida. That makes sense. Carry on

Seems nobody knows how to prevent school shootings. We as a country can't agree on anything. First we need to protect kids. Dont like this idea? Great! Come up with an immediate better solution to protect children.

It’s about dang time! Now, make this nationwide. People are so quick to blame “mental illness” even though there are cases where it’s a copout or an insanity plea. I’m glad this is starting, hopefully the ball will start rolling with this.

We like it. Better than hockey pucks and rocks.

Merica......2019...The idiots reign....

Don’t want to like this because here we are militarizing our schools. What’s next? Walls?

NRA 1, America 0. Very sad. Welcome to 3rd world tactics......

The US is nuts.

Wasn't this the school shooting where the school resource officer was in the school ran out and didn't go back in to help?

I rather homeschool my child at this point

I know where a school shooting isn’t going to happen now.

I wish the GOP. cared about our childeren. If they did they would help pass strong gun laws.

This is a turning point in U.S. history. We should be ashamed of ourselves as Americans when our schools become prisons.

I would expect to see that on the borders of Israel. But never at an American public school. That’s when you know we have a real gun crisis in this country. Those who can bring action are owned by the NRA lobbyists. So tragic they let kids die only to offer “thoughts & prayers”

The children have lost their innocence. Shame.

As a responsible gun owner this makes me sick to my stomach. No child should have to go to school in an armed camp because sicko NRA supporters can't handle some simple common sense controls on gun ownership.

Looks like some third world military State !

Psst, America, seriously, you're not well.

If guns are good enough to protect our politicians, guns are good enough to protect our children

WoW, what a mess in Mercia .

Who, exactly, are these “guardians”? How are they qualified? What are their rules of engagement? If they aren’t trained & expernced LEOs, they should be.

Equivalency: There's too many people dying from Lung cancer. The solution? Cigarette machines in all schools! 🤦🏻‍♂️

Who are these long gun toting people? Will they respond correctly when confronted? Are they highly trained? I doubt it. Most likely most of them are wannabe heroes that will run and hide if anything actually happens.

Reliving the trauma everyday

The good guys are not the ones that have made this happen.

maurmadden Yet, the good guy Parkland with his 9mm, Scot Peterson, trained to engage shooters, especially ones 1/3 his age and UNTRAINED, was shaking in his boots and afraid to enter as students and faculty were being robbed of their lives... 😳🙄🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 NotTheAnswer

It's about damn time. We protect our banks with armed guards and our airports. As far as Banks go I think children are probably more important than some cash in a drawer....

And rather than control gun sales, this is what we now have. Lawmakers have greatly failed our children. This is the new face of America, and it’s ugly.

I would rather pull my kid from school than let them see this spectacle everyday

Pure stupidity. A determined student will see armed guards as just another challenge. Parkland

What will you bet their will be no school shootings there?

Do they have the ability to shoot the right person

Good!! After parkland I always take my AR in my pickup truck as I go past a middle school on my way to the bar.

Do both.

Gee...”welcome to ‘NRA School,’ kids!”

Holy crap! Not the way to go. Companies that are creating weapons are obviously lobbying for particular political influence. This would have been easy for Trump to oversee...but he has got to make a dollar...or more. Smh

Ignorance at the highest Level. You can argue all you want. It’s ignorance.

How sad is that

This is fine until it isn’t- and then what? What happens when it goes wrong- more thoughts and prayers armed with even more guns?

Someone needs to protect our kids!

Kids are going to get shot with that gun. Just watch.

Imagine your child/grandchild, holed up under a desk under threat of a school shooter, calling to tell you, 'I love you.' No phone call, Xfit class, business meeting, traffic jam, or other daily event would avert the horror... or assuage their terror...or keep that child safe...

This is not the answer and we all know it

Nice

Do you want them to carry taco bell?
