federal and state governments have a hard enough time currently funding schools.

They do? Schools seem pretty well funded generally. They may still suck, but I don't know that there's a funding problem generally.

No that was Florida. I know it’s hard to keep track.

Recommendations to harden schools from mental ill people with AR-15s? Remember, federal and state governments have a hard enough time currently funding schools.

You can find the funding. Priority.

Would you rather save American children's lives or send billions to a plethora of foreign countries. You could find plenty of wasted cash at the grotesquely bloated Dept of Education.

Any and ALL measures to make unauthorized entry into our schools as difficult as possible. You can't shoot up the inside of a building if you can't get in. Not rocket science.

How about passing a stand alone national school security infrastructure bill?

Then went through an unlocked door.
