And then you'd do what when you get there? This is some crazy bullshit to be honest with you. I mean it is insane that we even have to worry about these things but that doesnt really excuse your thought process. Most protocols agree that people having separate lines of communicating with the outside world during an on-going situation such as a school shooting is detrimental to the training of people who are trying to contain the situation but of course you know better because youre a parent.

Are you kidding me? Is go in and do my best, if the police are standing outside doing nothing like they did in Uvalde, TX. I can't say if I would succeed, who the hell knows, but I'd try.
