Michigan school renovation gives children places to hide from gunmen
- Thread starter fluffydelusions
- Start date
That's an extremely welcoming environment that surely is bound to make kids at ease and ready to learn!
Are they aware that a significant number of shooters ARE students?
Also can you imagine taxpayers putting up with asbestos driving suits because we just keep making cars that burst into flames?
Or letting elementary schools be built next to explosive chemical plants and not requiring sprinklers? (No offense Texas)
Like we're putting bulletproof glass in kindergartens but we're not mandating background checks and we're literally allowing known terrorists and psychotic boyfriends to retain their second amendment rights.

"We are designing them to look like they are organically part of the design"
And every other country looks on, baffled. Astonished that this is seen to be the solution.
Just say it out loud; "Schools in America have to design places for the kids to hide from gunmen" and if that doesn't make you go what the actual fuck your perspective of what constitutes a normal environment for your fucking children is hopelessly, probably irrepairably, broken.

I think the endgame here (and the GOP's wet dream) is for public schools to be completely online at home, dramatically cutting costs and eliminating the need for teachers. "Can't get shot if you're homeschooled!" -they'll say
This country is so bad about dealing with its problems.
Climate change is a problem so we bash the people, scientist, and kids that want to help.
Gun control is a problem so we bash the kids that want to help, make schools look like war zones and we consider training our teachers to potentially murder their students.
Racism has never been addressed in this country so we ignore it and bash anyone that tries to open a dialog about it.
We are a terrible problem solvers. But coming from a country that was founded by white people trying to run from their problems what should I expect?

What a failure of a country. Fuck you if you have a problem with what I say too. It's sad they have to do this for kids in this country. I'm glad the school is looking out for the kids, but this joke of a fucking country I can't stand.
Fuck all the people who have the chance to make the changes, but they won't because they're a piece of shit.

Another stupid ass solution on the board!
So lets get this straight, spending 48 million dollars to build a place where all the students will be rounded up together during an incident.
what could go wrong!

I concur on this. I'm not going to blame the school district for doing what they can to protect children, as ineffective as it might be.
Additionally, I suspect this renovation was already in the works and these are just the specific design elements that were included in the process of designing the new renovations.
Isn't anybody blaming the district specifically? We're horrified by the whole damn country.
America is a fucking nightmare.
The school district doing this is actually the best possible thing they could do to help push toward gun law reform. It highlights the absurdity of the situation and gets on the national news.
Exactly, the shooters are generally people intimately aware of the school's layout.
Not outright, but some of the posts could be read that way. The ones implying this was a solution to avoid trying to tackle guns.
The American zeitgeist is so phenomenally stupid it's hard to imagine a country that has so much potential could squander such potential so completely each and every day.
America has so much potential to be the shining beacon in the darkness for the world, but it's fucking wasted.

Anything, but actually dealing with the problem head on. Anytime anyone speaks up about this countrys problem we are immediately shut down and dismissed.
Nothing like building buildings around guns instead of simply just removing guns from the equation altogether.
I'm confused. How would the school district take 48 million dollars meant for school renovations and other school related issues and give it to Congress to solve gun control exactly?
Tragic. It takes a really sick mind to find this preferable to doing something about the gun problem in America.
Shows students hiding places.
Student that shoots up school now knows all the hiding places.
Genius

I could see this.....school knows shit isn't going to get done or changed so its doing whatever power it can to help mitigate something!
