Schools across New York began the academic year with a new tool intended to prevent student suicides and violence: the ability to ask a court to remove a troubled person's access to firearms.

Schools across New York began the academic year with a new tool intended to prevent student suicides and violence: the ability to ask a court to remove a troubled person's access to firearms.

With the law so new, though, New York schools are still crafting procedures or waiting on guidance to help them figure out when and how to take action if the need arises. Several school systems contacted by The Associated Press said they're not yet sure what the law will look like in action. "Sometimes kids say things for attention," he said, noting that the law will require schools to present the courts with evidence.

Use of red flag procedures also varies widely in states that allow such petitions, as they are used rarely in some states and hundreds of times each year in others.

How are they tracking illegal guns? And is there a cross reference for every kid on psych meds, cause all the school shooters were on psych meds 🤷‍♀️.

they need to find a way to teach the kids who test poorly,

You guys would be surprised with what a man can do with some sheet metal, springs and a hacksaw...

Teen suicide is higher then school shootings Opioid overdose is higher then gun violence Car accidents are higher then guns violence Try stopping suicide

Its things like this that keep people from asking for help. If you ask for help, you get judged, penalized, and regulated. Makes the person feel more seperated, and worsens the scenario. It then follows them for the rest of thier life. So why ask for help if it makes it worse?

Start charging parents I bet school shootings slow down are stop !! Put parents in cuffs too for their kids acting when they commit crimes such as school shootings Everyone and anyone involved should be charged as well.

Keep up the Good Work. That is Really using the Old Noggin.

'I would encourage schools to refine young intellects, but neglect to discipline emotions — just let those run wild, until before you knew it, you’d have to have drug sniffing dogs and metal detectors at every schoolhouse door.'

Gun control by any means necessary

How about bullet proof vests? Neither side has offered that idea. If I'm wrong please provide a link or realize both political parties are full of shit.

But that's just how socialism works.

Something has to be done, honestly

blacks will scream 'RACISM' so this will only apply to whites
