It's genius! Another idea of equal brilliance would be to just put bleach in the drinking water so nothing ever gets dirty!

wat

One chokepoint. Multiple shooters. One holds down the chokepoint. Abject tragedy and chaos ensues.
---

we call this the "28 Weeks Later" Solution
---

well at least then we could predict where the shooter would be
---

And if that door is the only way out and is blocked in a fire then we just send more thoughts and prayers!
---

Ban all doors.

I half understand his dumbass misguided idea of thinking if there's only one entrance/exit that everyone could ideally be properly searched through a metal detector or whatever before going in without anyone ever being able to sneak on another way, again I don't think this, this is just what I think he thinks.

But in reality all that would do is trap everyone inside with an active shooter or someone could even coordinate something and have someone outside with a gun and some other psycho get in legitimately, pull a fire alarm or something, then get everyone coming out and open fire.
Ntm if they did manage to get in or even wait outside on their own with no accomplice, it's a choke point that they could lock down and even if you went with the NRA or Republican idea of arming teachers or having armed guards, a "good guy with a gun" couldn't even try to go around and flank them because there's no other way out..........

Also completely ignoring how major of a fire hazard that is... Instead of a mass shooting the next news story would be all the kids who died in a school fire when the only way out got blocked off with fire...
---

Then send all Republican politicians to school for the rest of their lives. The man is a genius.
---

In other news the Fire Chief tweeted that this dumbass doesn't understand the fire codes in texas.
---

That's a fire hazard.
---

I would like to see a thousind students trying to escape trough one door in case of a fire. That would for sure course more deaths than any shootings ever.

A GOP politician. No surprise.

Can we just diagnose anyone who identifies as a GOP member mentally disabled?

And this is why Texas will very likely turn blue.

If only. Doddering old fools who shouldn't have any modicum of power in this day and age.

There was a bar in Rhode Island that had one entrance/exit...it didnt end well.
---

One entrance, multiple exits. Security to walk around every hour making sure no exit doors are jammed open.

Also give every student a gun
---

I think American politics are just a case of the stupider you are, the more self-confidence you have, and then you just shove your way to the top while stepping on all the people with dignity and self-awareness.
---

This is not smart.
---

Texas leaders are wise.
---

The context of the answer was a question about why there were unguarded entrances to the high school.

The good parts already are. But you're underestimating the sheer amount of people in bumfuck nowhere who are dumb as shit here. And I've lived all over the state so I have a pretty good grasp of the people here.

It's going to be really hard to fix the straight ticket Republican ballot voting so many people here are indoctrinated into.

I'm sure it'll turn eventually but I don't see it happening this decade, possibly even the next honestly.

The real way to protect our students is to "thoughts and prayers" the shit out of them.
