I would rather  have something than nothing @GingerPeach...It is at least a chance

[cherry]

They may well have them @151949..if not people should pony up and buy them...

[GingerPeach]

Not the way he has it set up, @cherry

One bucket means several people are going for that bucket and will just be an easier target.

I applaud him for thinking of something, though.

We don't know how its set up for sure . We only know he has rocks..other people might suggest things, or perhaps they already have..maybe he doesn't want people to know

Well David killed Goliath with a few stones. They may also have slings. I have seen them used  before. They are deadly..they are a long range weapon and they hit with tremendous force

I applaud this man. He is thinking out of the box ,and doing the best he has ,with nothing at all..no help from our govt nor anyone else

To all the sneerers  you   don't seem to have any solutions at all, do you?

I for one am absolutely not sneering....  but the answer to this can only be with an equitable defense.  

[cherry]

Well seeing as no one is offering that , what  else can he do...?  I'm sure he doesn't have funds to hire a  sniper..He is just one person

[SahmIam]

Um...ok.

I don’t applaud him at all. It’s a dumb idea (as a box of rocks). As someone mentioned, you don’t take a knife to a gunfight; what makes a rock a better weapon?

I have a solution but unfortunately Congress is unwilling to listen to my solution at this time.

Yes it is important ,and this administrator ,knows that the kids safety, is entrusted to him. He is doing the best with what little he has, to protect those children. He cares enough not just to leave it to chance

You don't need to lecture me about what goes on in schools, my daughter is ta policewoman at a big 10 school .I know only too well. Her first day on the job  she was called out, on  what turned out to be a double homicide

There are so many options that are available, asking school children to protect themselves with rocks against an armed Intruder is not reasonable, caring, gutsy or inventive...its insane & if I had a child in that school I'd want the administrator fired immediately. I admire your daughter being a police officer...Thankfully they don't have a rock in their holster to protect the public & themselves.

I do he is trying to protect thos kids with nothing, no funds, nor help from any quarter at all

He cares and that is more than you can say for the vast number of people in a postion to stop this, or to pump funds into proper school security
