        Sec Devos, w/all due (lack-of) respect, if u TRULY valued education & the chidlren the public school system serves, u'd have gracefully passed on the position, & urged @DonaldTrump to better select a PROFESSIONAL, w/SOME SHRED of EXPERIENCE & EDUCATION as the best fit.

        If ur not aware: The Betsy/Bear pic touches on her use of the threat of grizzly bears to justify having weapons in schools. If ONLY u were graded on a "PASS / FAIL" grading, & not instead, a Trump appointee being graded on a scale of Donald. #MAGA =#MakeAmericaGoofyAgain @TheViewpic.twitter.com/sQbEorIhkC

        No, #CruellaDeVos, it is not lawful for ICE to remove undocumented students from our classrooms. See Supreme Court. But you nevertheless still managed to terrorize millions of children with your ignorant statement. Keeping our children safe means ALL our children. See #10A

        Why not save money and just do what has been already shown to work in all the other 1st world countries where kids aren't gunned down at school?

        I know installing metal detectors at the entrances of schools, limiting access once kids are on campus and having an armed security guard just won't work. Instead of blaming the guns, lets figure out what is causing our children to behave in such a way.

        Or, instead of turning schools into prisons, we could do what has already been shown to work in all the other 1st world countries where kids aren't gunned down at school.

        When I went to school there were no fences, no badges worn around the neck or security guards. Kids had pocket knives and never stabbed anyone. We didn't want to cause trouble or we would be in trouble both at school and home. It's how kids are being raised.

        Methinks some good ol' (enforced!) gun safety legislation might do just the trick. Just to be clear: this means NOT locking down emergency exits and NOT giving teachers guns in hand.

        Please ensure that one of those solutions IS NOT TO ALLOW TEACHERS TO HAVE GUNS AT SCHOOLS.!!! We ARE NOT part of a well-run militia!!!!! And we are NOT a culture of violence! I refuse to allow a few bad apples to define us!

        There's only one "practical" solution to murders on campus. Get rid of the murder weapons. Oddly, that's the one "practical" solution you and your bogus commission will not consider. #Resistance #BlueWave2018
