The long and short of Sandy Hook, and I'm a bad man to say this, is "that school wasn't prepared for this."
1 year after a crazy frenchman walked into a hebrew school in marsailles and shot dead a student.
A dozen years after Columbine.
Still they had NO PLAN for this eventuality. They had time to trigger a pa system from the main office. Most people reported hearing shouting and cursing and 'pops' on the pa speaker from the office. They had time to make a "shooter in the building; lock all doors" message over the pa system. But they didn't, b/c they didn't have a plan.
If 20 kids had died in a fire b/c there was no escape plan, we'd be hearing about how bad that school was prepared.
I'm just speaking my mind... I"m often wrong, but I like to find problems in the existing system not to point fingers, but to find solutions. This was a problem no one has addressed (as far as I know).
