Disneyland gets it right (weapons, deaths, border, solutions)

There were signs where that little boy got killed. The parents were too stupid to know that "no swimming" also means stay out of the water.

But the comparison is flawed. Disneyland averages 44,000 per day. K - 12 schools average 50 million per day.

Spreading the cost of security scanners over 50,000,000 is much cheaper than 44,000.

Are you saying all K - 12 schools need the same number of security scanners as Disneyland?

Single point of entry

Armed Resource Officer (s) inside and/ or outside the school
ID card entry
Metal detectors
Wands
Surveillance Cameras
Face Recognition Cameras
Resistent glass
Bomb- sniffing dogs
Safety- shields
Random locker searches
Active shooter drills

All it takes is a state/ district willingness to fund it via taxation.

And metal detectors have become dirt cheap ($3000). Courthouses all over the country have been installing them for many years. I guess politicians think it's worth spending money on metal detectors for courthouses but not for schools.

We harden and protect everything valuable in this country EXCEPT our children and some people want it kept that way.

Especially in a big bureaucracy like LAUSD . Have you seen some of those salaries ?

Annual per pupil spending in California in 2017: $10,291 (CA ranks 41st in the nation in this area.)
$135 X 270 school days (there are probably more days than that): $36,450.

(And Disneyland just raised their prices.)

I've played a lot of golf courses where alligators live and don't ever remember a sign saying "don't feed the alligators".

There is 1 Disneyland with 1 main gate. There are 90,000 schools with multiple entrances each.

How many kids are actually killed in school shooting as a percentage of total students?
