[QUOTE="PrairieGhost, post: 208433, member: 704"] I took an eight hour training symposium on the subject of church and school security just two weeks ago. Timely I guess. They estimate that half the cost of building a school is to meet fire code even though no child has died in a school fire for 50 years. Your right this is not a gun problem it is a behavior problem. These mass killers are desensitized to death and creatures of opportunity. This demands a two pronged solution. First and immediately eliminate our schools as soft targets. Laminated glass in doors, metal detectors, and trained armed people inside the school. Today when we talk about lobbyists the tobacco companies have declined and the multi billion dollar video game industry has replaced them providing our Washington representation with their own biased psychology studies claiming violence in movies and video games has no affect on children. The first mass shooting occurred in 1975 and is increasing around the world even in countries where gun ownership is a crime. As I work security today I find some down time to read. I am reading "Assasination Generation" by Lt. Col. Dave Grossman. For the military he was also a psychologist. Interestingly through training we have increased the willingness of our soldiers to use their weapons, but in the right situations. Today's video games are nearly identical, but give points for kills with little restraint. Anyway if your interested this is the book: [ATTACH=CONFIG]21735._xfImport[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
