I read the Sun Sentinel article and it made me sick to my stomach. The incredible cowardice and incompetence demonstrated was beyond disgusting.
I would like to see some technological solutions that could mitigate the damage. Gun shot sensors should be placed around schools and immediately alert someone in administration that a possible shot has been fired. It will identify the location of the shot and allow the administrator to verify via the CCTV system. If it is confirmed that it is indeed an active shooter, a Code Red should be immediately sounded, bypassing fire alarms. It should also alert the police. As a safeguard, the gun shot sensor should notify the police if the administrator does not respond within a certain time frame (maybe a minute?).
Regardless, Sheriff Israel is incompetent and his policies is what lead up to this tragedy.
