Three parents were arrested, two of whom were tased, during a confrontation outside an Arizona elementary school that had been locked down over a report of someone with a gun Friday, El Mirage police said.

Thompson Ranch Elementary School was locked down after a report around 10:30 a.m. that someone who appeared to have a handgun had tried to open a locked door and ran off, El Mirage police Lt. Jimmy Chavez said.

That person was later taken into custody and was being evaluated by mental health professionals, police in El Mirage, a city northwest of Phoenix, said in a later statement. The statement did not say if any gun was found.

Outside the school in Arizona on Friday, the three parents were arrested as several parents said they were going to go onto the locked-down campus to protect their children, Chavez said.

After what happened in Texas it seems these parents decided they couldn't trust the police.

1. After Uvalde, this is going to become more common -- and may escalate to shooting.

2. One of the parents was a good guy with a gun

"One of those arrested, a man described as the “main instigator,” was armed and a handgun fell to the ground as he was being arrested, Chavez said."

3. "Good" guy with a gun

Just appears to be a “guy with a gun” to first responders and will only waste time and resources as they deal with him.

4. The gun fell out should tell you something about the good guy with a gun

A properly secured gun doesn't "fall out" . The guy is a dumb ass when it comes to the handling of guns and deserved what he got. I have no sympathy for idiots with a gun.
