    Yes. My school safety plan already provides more law enforcement and school safety officers and metal detectors. Also addresses mental health challenges of students. The Legislature is now considering longer term funding & solutions. #txlegehttps://twitter.com/corina81305468/status/1005460226554949634 …

    Hopefully it includes more law enforcement or guards. If not, then at least metals detectors. Not pretty, but a small price to pay for our kids safety. It’s the world we now live in unfortunately.

        Why are you so against #BanAssaultWeapons ? What is your rationale for being against banning of a military grade weapon that has no business being in the hands of civilians? Also, why are you working so hard for @NRA? Shouldn’t you be working that hard to help our teachers🤨

        It doesn’t address a significant root cause: easy access to guns, especially to military style rifles with only one purpose: kill people quickly. Why’s that not in your plan?

        Yes, because of course the industrial prison scholastic model is the preferred learning environment for youth. Why not put fences around the buildings with barbed wire crowns to compete the look?

        How about some real common sense gun laws that prevent kids from getting the guns in the first place, and stopping the NRA from promoting silencers to be purchased for the guns like they are today. Stop the terrorists by stopping their supplies. you could do so much more!

        I was glad to see your plan proposing a wide range of measures. Also let's not forget that "mental health" includes things like anger management which are a long way from saying somebody is "crazy," but could be very helpful.
