Israel does have armed guards at schools and security fences around the perimeter. Reportedly some of the teachers are armed too (but not all).
....but they were worried about Palestinians, not a disturbed kid.

Gun ownership laws are actually more strict in Israel than in the US. You need a license to have any gun at all.

Not sure this is true, but my wife said that in Israel all the school teachers are packin’ heat. No school shootings since 1974
Have not checked snopes to see if this is actually true.

Yea I agree. Anything to put a little more pressure on gun control. I'm in Baltimore, and MD has some of the strictest gun control laws in the US. It seems like the only people here who can carry guns are the bad guys. I'm not an expert, but I'm pretty sure gun violence is getting worse here, even with the strict laws. I guess the bad guys don't get the memo that they can't have guns on the streets. On Fri, Oct 9, 2015 at 7:04 PM, Ken Hohhof <[email protected] <mailto:[email protected]>> wrote:

    News reports should not be calling the latest incident in Arizona
    a “campus shooting”.  Yes there was shooting, yes it was on
    campus.  But a confrontation between two groups of students in a
    parking lot at 1:20am is not what most people think of when you
    say “campus shooting”.

    That guy in Oregon made statements right out of Catcher in the Rye.
    I always felt that book was a good screening tool for high school
    boys. If they loved the book, watch out. If they thought Holden
    was a sad character or a loser, then they are probably going to
    turn out OK.
