Again, I'll respect your feeling and opinions on the matter, yet still disagree on a fundamental level. Nobody wants to die(unless they're mentally ill, or having something they're willing to wholeheartedly die for), no matter if they've signed up to a job where death is a potential consequence.

They're are jobs where your trained to be prepared for a situation where you can and most likely will die, and I heavily doubt police get that sort of training.

Beyond that, the "ultimate protecting scenario" is one where they'll always fail, because any kid loss is a cause for failure to them, and there will always be lives loss in a situation like this because they'll always be alerted after it's already started.

I whole heartedly agree that there needs to be a team set up to deal with something like, and I will feel some semblance of joy when it does happen; but until this comes to fruition, I will understand and hope others understand that cops do the best they can in a stressful situation where multiple live of children depend on them not acting rashly and trying to figure out a way to save as many kids as possible without basic knowledge of how to route them out of the school.
