St. Louis School Shooting

[noway2]

Police: 3 killed in shooting at St. Louis high school

Typical (poor) journalism, but the salient point is that a man, believed to be 20 years old, armed with a long gun, somehow got into the school and killed three and wounded six more before he was shot and killed by the responding cops. One girl said she was confronted by him, but his gun jammed enabling her to get away.

Speaking at a news conference, Police Commissioner Michael Sack said the shooter was about 20 years old but did not provide a name for him or his victims. He declined to say if the woman killed was a teacher.

St. Louis Schools Superintendent Kelvin Adams said seven security guards were in the school at the time, each at an entry point of the locked building. One of the guards noticed the man was trying to get in at a locked door, but couldn't. The guard notified school officials and ensured that police were contacted, Sack said.

“It was that timely response by that security officer, the fact that the door did cause pause for the suspect, that bought us some time,” Sack said.

Sack declined to say how the man eventually got inside, armed with what he described as a long gun.

Well, of course there was…elections is right on us now.

So you have seven armed guards monitoring every locked entrance, who note that a guy is trying to get into the building, yet instead of confronting him, goes to "tell school officials", he still manages to get in, and then police officers, not the seven armed guards, are the ones that exchange fire with the shooter?

There isn't one aspect of this story that remotely passes the sniff test.

Report said that the SRO's were unarmed. WTF???

Makes as much sense as sending social workers to domestics and mental subjects.

These people will never see the error of their ways.

Yep, you're right. This line says it all:

A reporter asked if the shooter got through the locked school door because security guards were not armed. The chief did not directly answer that question.

Those aren't security guards, any more than a kid wearing a hall monitor sash is a security guard. My bet is that one of the guards let him in the school after being threatened at gun point with no means to defend themselves.

Most place that have private security, have it for show.

Here's the deal, it takes a special person to run to the guns. The type of person who runs to the fight normally is not a $13.00-$19.00 security officer. They are window dressing at best.

I was approached one time in 2013 to help be part of a security team for a hedge fund dude in Raliegh. This guy "lost" all the money in 2008-2010 timeframe and was in hiding from the investors. The guy who approached me to help with this cats security showed me a note. and I quote: "I found you Rick, I am on my way. I will kill you, your family and ///-rape your dog"

At that time, I realized no amount of money is worth standing between that guy and Rick.

I assume a lot of these "Security Officers" think the same way when they see a gunman bearing down on them.

And insurance purposes.

While I understand not getting between that guy and Rick, it takes a special piece of **** to let a gunman into a school full of kids, which is what I surmise happened here.

How little faith you have in the narrative.... it's not about the shooter this time and all about the guns:

100% correct.

So he was a poor kid that needed a bigger go bag?

 

[Jayne]

Now it fits better:

 

[AR10ShooterinNC]

If he was a poor kid, where did he get an AR and 600 round of ammo. That is a lot of money today.

They're easier to find than a book, and practically giving them away (or so I'm told by the MSM).

 

[DrScaryGuy]

old quote i can't locate right now
something along the lines of "never call an unarmed man security..." and then went on to explain why you shouldn't do it.

 

[Slacker]

No handguards on the rifle!
I bet the barrel and gas tube got warm.

 

[Get Off My Lawn]

Thankfully they put the POS oxygen waster down.

 

[AR10ShooterinNC]

So, is this another FBI false flag...

 

[Supermatch]

Still haven't seen that "Unarmed Security Breaches Policy, Allows Armed Gunman Into School" headline yet.

Ironically enough, this incident may actually prove that having NO security is actually more effective at preventing violent crime than requiring UNARMED security.

 

[Stogies]

Missing handguards, WTH?

 

[Button Pusher]

The rifle looks evil vs the standard assault AR.

He was denied at the FFL so he purchased it privately.
