As somebody who did armed security is LICENSED to own and carry let me say a couple things
1. 30 intruders??? That’s a football team who are you beefing with?
2. You’re STATICALLY more likely to be killed during a home invasion trying to play hero. So he’s right the BEST option is to GET YOU AND YOUR KIDS OUT THE HOUSE. Her response of “oh I stand my ground” is heartbreaking. Y’all are not fucking John Wick y’all are gonna get y’all children and yourselves killed.
3. If it means protecting these kids from school shootings and putting an end to mass shootings as a whole I WILL GLADLY turn in my guns. I’m all for stricter gun laws and I feel like the ONLY ppl who aren’t are the ppl who have guns they don’t need and would probably be denied access to those guns if the laws changed.
I have reinstalled Twitter to respond to this story and make sure my voice is fully heard. I am Casey.
My real name is Alex but my mom decided it would be best to hide it for anonymity. But this is my story, not hers. This is not the free press’s story.
Three days ago, a 15-yr old boy had an anxiety attack in the school bathroom to hide from his bullies and struggling grades.
His “guidance” counselor pulled him into a room alone and told him to power thru and stop saying he was suicidal for attention even tho he was crying so hard the capillaries in his face were broken. Fun fact: the boy has never been in trouble nor has said this before.
The boy is now in the hospital an hour away from his family due to a real attempt to leave this world.
Because the school would not listen all year nor accommodate his mother’s requests for help and a 504 plan, he felt he had no hope and could not face another day.
The boy is my son. And I’m so angry at the GC in his school I’m frozen. They’re now complying to help with classes and gave him a new counselor.
These new accommodations are not enough. Our story isn’t rare. Schools need to wake up and make some real changes.
