They clearly were not properly trained or prepared. If they are going to have guards, they need to be well trained, cover all entrances and exits, and be prepared at all times. This included metal detectors and security at every entry point, and roaming patrols.

Too much? Perhaps. But ask the parents who lost children at Shady Hook or Columbine if it would have been too much. I don't have kids in school who need to be protected, so I'm really not one to say what is enough or not. Best to ask those who lost loved ones during shootings what they think. They should be the voice of reason during these gun debates, not those who speak on behalf of the gun industry.
