A Brilliant Idea To keep Mass Killers Out Of Schools
- Thread starter Ponca Dan
- Start date
“For some odd reason, however, there continues to be resistance to the idea of developing serious, meaningful security strategies that directly address the situations that lead to deaths in areas such as schools, nightclubs, and hotels. ”
“
For example, while spending on "security" at schools has increased considerably in recent years, most of that money is spend on cheap quick-fixes like security cameras. Some spending is done on controlling access, but little is spent on competent on-site personnel and other strategies. The conclusion to draw from these fact, though, is not that money spent on security is necessarily wasted. It's just being spent badly.
Even worse is the dismissal of security measures because they conflict with someone's (usually incorrect) notions of what things were like in the good old days. "My grandpa never had security at hisschool" is a common thought. Well, maybe grandpa should have had some security, since data suggests homicide rates in the 1920s and early 30s were considerably higher than they are today.“
“until enhanced security becomes something that is truly demanded by both voters and consumers, we won't see much of it. People, apparently prefer what security experts call the "security roller coaster": panic, forget, repeat. ”
Signs. Lots of signs.
Cheap, too. What could possibly go wrong?

I’m missing your point. Are you thinking an anarchist is opposed to security for himself and others?
He has no point. He never does. That's what an adult with a toddler brain looks like when it has access to the internet.
That’s what anarchism is, PD. Self-governance is a key component of anarchism
“Anarchism is a political philosophy that advocates self-governed societies based on voluntary institutions. These are often described as stateless societies,[1][2][3][4] although several authors have defined them more specifically as institutions based on non-hierarchical or free associations.[5][6][7][8] Anarchism holds the stateto be undesirable, unnecessary and harmful.[9][10]
While opposition to the state is central,[11]anarchism specifically entails opposing authority or hierarchical organisation in the conduct of all human relations.”

Yes, that SA and NRA will have us where schools, movie theaters, parades, malls... all militarized with roving ar's and colts. It'll be awesome.
Still missing your point. A stateless society does not mean a society unable to protect itself. Thanks for the lesson on what anarchism is. I’ve spent about 50 years studying the philosophy. I must have missed the part you supplied. (Sorry for the sarcasm. I couldn’t help myself.)
But in a stateless society, the state provides no measure of safety and security for individuals, who are left to protect themselves. You’re welcome on the actual definition of anarchism
It is funny to copy and paste the first part of the wiki about anarchy to Ponca Dan.
Like me telling NZ Poke there are some twitter accounts he needs to follow.

The article is talking about and pretty much presupposes state provided public safety for state funded and directed public schools, right?
I think that is kind of Toon’s point, but I’m not certain. Sometimes (often) his point is lost in the zeal to be combative and the “board villain”.
Maybe the more accurate idealistic anarcho-capitalist response as to a brilliant suggestion for stopping school shootings would be...no state run schools so private individuals could run their own schools as they see fit.

I stole Clinton's "Carry on" sign off on the Corral because it enhances the illusion that you can take pot shots and seemingly stay above the fray.
I like it.
Carry on.
I like it.
Carry on.
You know, you're being lectured on political philosophy by a mid 30 year old living with his folks.
He's obviously got all his shit and your shit figured out.
