The school's five foot fence was inadequate, despite a policy of locked doors, there was a regrettable culture of noncompliance.

(1,836 posts)1. Security failures need to be addressed
Its all important. Cops criminal ineptitude needs to be addressed.
But damn, its frankly infuriating how everyones chasing all the issues secondary to what caused this.
AN ASSAULT RIFLE.

(7,290 posts)4. Pointing out failures
is not the same as blaming.
Failures in policies/procedures should be pointed out so that they can be corrected.

(51,200 posts)6. You'd be correct IF they also discussed how lax gun laws contributed.
They didn't. So all their discussions about safety failures are truly distractions. Look anywhere but at the guns.

(30,540 posts)7. Guns are not a simple issue, safety issues like fences and doors that lock can be done now
while working toward gun issues too. Doing nothing about anything is getting us nowhere. Don't let them have the excuse or distraction of lacking safety ... fix those things that can be done NOW.
