        Wind destroys a school. Teachers work 2 or 3 jobs. Children don't have supplies. But a superfluous border wall is receiving billions in funding. Corporations and the top one percent are paying less taxes. We need a change as fast. #America #BlueWave2018

        Balloon framed roof span, attached to walls below the top, along the sides. Roof span was sucked upwards and lifted at midspan of windward side. Weight of span stronger than isolated connections. Continuous Dampening Reinforcing would have held this roof span to walls.pic.twitter.com/7u3MbwV4OC

        A roof of a public school in tornado alley that couldn't take a 60 MPH gust? Glad to see Kansas building codes are as top notch as the rest of their governance. Did they sell the roof to a private company and lease it back, or just cut all maintenance and repair funds entirely?

        Right?! This wasn’t even an F0 and it took off a roof... imagine what that place would have looked like if# an actual tornado hit it

        They cut corners no doubt. Contractor might as well put a "gone fishing" sign up. We have special regs because of 🌀. Tornado alley needs to adopt. Spent a few extra $$ for my roof. Inspector was impressed. Hmmm, was it inspected???

        I know how good FL building codes are. My dad is in Lakeland and the eye went within 3 miles of his home... only lost a few shingles
