        .@ArtAcevedo Why not take initiative and, as police chief, develop an innovative partnership w/ schools rather than wait solely for legislation? I appreciate the sentiment but kinda passing the buck when you have power to change the game. #SantaFe #SchoolShootings #EnoughIsEnough

        Who ssys he won't? This is Texas. We have no common sense gun laws. NONE. It won't change overnight but it is great to see a person of authority saying there needs to be change in Texas.

        I'm not saying he won't at all. Before going to HTX, he was chief in Austin where i live so i am pretty familiar with his work & career.

        I hope that since he is so respected that he will convince many others to work for change.

        We're on the same side. I know he can't change laws but maybe he can leverage his position & resources in his sphere of influence to make local schools safer.

        Me too. My husband said he can't do much in his present position to make any real changes but he can sure be a voice for change. I am from Lubbock but live in North Texas now. We love Austin! Bradley went to UT. Nice to "meet" you fellow Blue Texan!

        He is right on. People need to show their dislike at the polls. Nothing is being done by the present officials.

        It’s time to take school safety out of the gun control debate and enact real school security. Security fences, metal detectors and armed security.

        Keep in mind these aren't random people doing this stuff. These are students shooting up their own schools. See the common denominator yet? Let's look closer at what is and is not happening in our schools that's where its stemming from

        People with mental health issues. But how do you stop them as 1 in 8 humans will have mental health issues during their life.

        Again what's happening in our schools that is driving our kids to do this. If its mental health schools have staff trained to recognize these things yet they ignore it. Personally I believe school staff ignore many things that could prevent these tragedies

        Also parents don’t like to admit or even recognise their kid may be mentally unwell.
