Again, take a look at a commercial fire door. Glass is laminated, and many are wire reinforced. If this school was hardened in any way, there would have also been grates or bars on the windows.
I think the problem here isn't the type of door but that the back door was unlocked so could be easily opened.
The people who complain about the militarization of police are idiots. Origins of police forces are from the military. They've always used military equipment and uniforms going back to their origins. Police forces like Toronto that wear red stripes on their pants get it from the army tradition. Red means infantry. The RCMP wears a yellow stripe because yellow designates cavalry. The red serge is the colour it is because the British got along reasonably well with the native population, so they wanted to build on that goodwill by copying their appearance.
The U.S. has a law that the military cannot be called in to deal with domestic disturbances unless the President deems it necessary. I think the 101st Airborne has been called at least twice. Little Rock and Mississippi.
Ole Miss riot of 1962 - Wikipedia
"Sept. 24, 1957 – 327th Airborne Battle Group, 101st Airborne deploys to Little Rock to Restore Order & Justice. Bayonets Fixed – Double Time. President Eisenhower Deploys 101st Airborne “Screaming Eagles” On September 24, 1957, President Dwight D. Eisenhower signed Executive Order 10730."

Not sure if they still do but the military gives surplus equipment to the police but then the lefties complained about the "militarization" of the police. The lefties would prefer to send in a couple of social workers to convince the maniac that killing kids is not nice.
And the righties keep enabling the killers.

You must be proud.

In terms of effectiveness, how much did the number of the mass school shootings in Toronto schools drop?
Hey Kirk, still wondering if you have stats as to how much an armed guard in the school helped cut down on mass shootings in Toronto schools. You said that it had been effective here.

Its been done here in Toronto. And it was pretty effective until the activists starting complaining to the TPSB.

These stats are based on 2020, a year dominated by millions of BLM/Antifa rioters, protesters and looters. Culminating in the largest number of protests (and the most violent) in US history.



Resulting in dozens of deaths of protesters BY protesters; tens of thousands of arrests; 2000 injured police officers - many seriously; one Federal officer assassinated in Oakland CA while protecting a federal building; billions of dollars in property damage; hundreds of arsons; dozens of federal buildings/court offices/police stations vandalized/set on fire/destroyed; the deployment of over 60,000 National Guard; plus Federal agents (FBI, DEA, US Marshals, DHS) to at least ten cities; the implementation of “lawless (CHOP) zones” in numerous cities that enabled violence, sexual assaults and murders.



So the results of this very focused study is hardly surprising lol. It’s a gross understatement to say, the leftwing kept US Law Enforcement very busy in 2020.

Sounds a lot like the Wiemar Republic in the 1930s. Just remember what kind of excuse for a POTUS we had up to 1/20/21:poop:...

Question 1: Did all the calls to defund and demilitarize the police render them unequipped to act effectively in this situation?

Question 2: Who are the people demanding the police be defunded and demilitarized?

For what's got to be the 20th time, do your research.

A military sniper is different than a police sniper, and both are different than a hunter...
And do any of them think using a low power semi-auto is more accurate?

I don't know what kind of hunters you know but the ones I know pride themselves in being able to take down their target with a single shot. Bolt actions are on average more accurate and any hunter deserving of the name doesn't need to unload with a semi-auto to kill their game.


Semi-auto might be my choice against a charging polar bear but even still, I'd want rounds larger than the 5.56.
