I believe the best way to prevent these things is better security for schools it is the one thing that will help prevent future attacks.
Interesting.
You've made a number of posts strongly defending and justifying officers shooting certain unarmed kids or kids with toy guns when those kids weren't shooting anybody...you know, 'like anybody would'.
NOW you're claiming that an armed officer would be justified in hesitating to shoot this teen, a big kid who was actively slaughtering people at the time....because you know, 'it just goes against most peoples grains'.
I think you're way off base with your assertion that it goes against most people's grains. I'd definitely shoot the teen without hesitation if I had the chance to save a bunch of lives, including my own, in that situation. And, I'm not even trained to do so like officers are.
