Putting armed cops and metal detectors in schools does _not_ make for a safe learning environment, and non-police alternatives work a lot better. @EdTalkProject has the receipts: https://nyti.ms/2CxDFpU via @nytopinion #overpolicing
My sense is only a minority of parents want their kids' schools to armor up like this, but it's a large-ish minority, depending on the district. And preventing this from becoming "normal" is, for the reasons you state, v important!

Actually large majorities of parents support armed guards and metal detectors in schools. And a large minority supports armed staff/teachers.pic.twitter.com/wrgwCY1qOh
