Police officers who didn't immediately go in and apprehend or stop the shooter?? Thats not what I'm asking. Two full time security guards. You know, ones that are actually in the building. Ones that will actually lock the front entrance.

Texas Department of Public Safety Director Steven McCraw said at the press conference that the shooter approached a back door of the school and was confronted by a school resource officer who "engaged him at that time" but "the subject was able to make it into the school." It's unclear whether the school officer and the gunman exchanged gunfire.

We do not know what happened entirely unless someone finds more information. We do know that apparently the two came face to face and security failed. You gotta read an article, this isn't just another school shooting where stuff went down at the school first. The cops were already on red alert when he was heading for the school. The police failed entirely.
 
A School Resource Officer is security in its current form, they are there to do any and everything a real police officer does. Do I think this job was probably pawned off onto paul blart though? Probably.

Remember that part where the police didn't go inside then attempted to tase and arrest the parents who did? Good times, Warren vs. DC really shining today

...if the police wouldnt go in why do you think security guards who are probably paid even less would want to risk their lives

yeah thats a valid point but heck lots of schools already have metal detectors (mainly alternative schools and the such for "at risk" or drop-out teens, troublemakers, etc) but also some larger schools as well. when i was in school it pretty much already felt like jail to me so i don't really see why it matters much to have them for an extra layer of security, or like crook is saying just start with a fence and designated / supervised entrances and exits. on the contrary however - this did happen at an elementary school and having metal detectors and fencing in a setting like that seems a bit too much - thats where young kids are learning and playing it shouldn't have to be all fenced up and stuff all because 1 piece of stuff decided to do soPhysician Prescribed Desoxyning awful

metal detectors do nothing for honor students who walk onto campus kitted out ready to go, like this last one. the problem was they were able to get onto the campus relatively easily before anyone could sound the alarm. a locked door/closed fenced off area would do better at literally holding them back long enough for someone to get the alarm out.

Hmmmmm....

Never knew you could get thousands of dollars in financing to buy a gun lol. I do understand that removing this ability doesn't fix anything but just interesting.

Lol loving imagine buying a 2k DD on finance, imagine having poor taste and being poor that you think DD is worth the hassle of financing it.

my question to you all is why does this only happen in the usa?

It doesn't. It happens in Europe as well. As for Flash Mobs, it happens literally everywhere, and can prove to be even deadlier than one carried out via firearm.

no

Imagine if just TWO full time security guards were present. Do you think the outcome would be different?

no

so you like...work at the college you attend...to pay for the college you attend? props for working for an education and all but wouldn't it be more mindful to go for an apprenticeship or soPhysician Prescribed Desoxyning? they actually pay you to learn

its not a work study, i get actual paychecks that i often use on various things unrelated to college. i also have a good amount of scholarships and other financial aid so im not paying that much semester to semester. also a matter of convenience because i dont have to drive to separate locations / its easier to work around my classes
