Chasten Buttplug snarked that the GOP’s only proposal for limiting gun violence was “locking the doors.”

It’s the guns.
OK, we’ll ban the drag queens.
No, it’s the guns.
OK, we’ll make sure to lock the doors. https://t.co/euSy5RC5Jb– Chasten Buttigieg (@Chasten) March 27, 2023

How about having police on the school grounds?
 
Oh no, you can’t do that — that upsets the key Democrat constituency of criminals who want to commit crimes without being hassled by police about their lifestyle choices.
 
Townhall’s Mia Cathell has a long and detailed report on what happened to school districts which removed police from the premises, to appease the riot, arson, and looting supporters of BLM.

Two years after a high school in Denver, Colorado, removed all law enforcement officers from school grounds based on the belief that arresting “Black and Brown students for minor school infractions” perpetuates the “school-to-prison pipeline,” a black gunman, who was an expelled student, shot two school administrators Wednesday. Sadly, it’s a disturbing yet predictable trend we’re seeing in schools across America that have rid themselves of on-campus police to appease Black Lives Matter activists.

Note that this article is from last week.

Denver Public Schools–ColoradoAs Julio covered, during the height of the violent BLM-Antifa riots, the Denver Public Schools Board of Education passed a resolution in June 2020 that eliminated the presence of all school resource officers (SRO), a unanimous 7 – 0 vote that ended its contract with the Denver Police Department and nixed all SRO positions within a year, over concerns that the “outsourcing of school discipline to police disproportionately impacts Black and Brown students.” According to the SRO Transition Project’s report, the resolution was driven by the district’s “commitment to dismantle racism and become an anti-racist organization.”
 
The board’s vice president Auon’tai M. Anderson, who introduced the resolution, celebrated its passage. “WE DID IT!” Anderson tweeted. “#BlackLivesMatter.” In a recent Medium article, titled “Removing SROs from Schools: A Step Towards Justice and Safety for Students of Color,” Anderson asserted on Feb. 16: “While there have been concerns about the safety and well-being of students, it’s important to acknowledge the negative impacts that SROs can have on students, particularly students of color.”
 
Now, two armed officers will be stationed at Denver East High School for the remainder of the academic year in the wake of Wednesday’s double shooting that injured two deans. DPS Superintendent Alex Marrero sent a letter addressed to the school board, informing its members that at least one armed cop will also be posted at each of the district’s comprehensive high schools.
 
The city’s Democrat mayor agreed and “strongly” backed Marrero’s move. In a statement posted to social media, Denver Mayor Michael Hancock admitted the decision to do away with SROs was “a mistake” and that “we must move swiftly to correct it.”
 
Shortly after, the board issued a response, saying it supports the police’s return for the rest of this school year.
 
17-year-old Austin Lyle was identified as the shooter who wounded the pair of faculty members, leaving one in “serious condition” following surgery. Lyle was under “a safety plan” that was specifically designed for him to be patted down each day before entering the school, but during the daily search Wednesday, the student pulled out a weapon, shot the two deans, and fled. As Matt pointed out, the now-deceased black suspect’s race is actively being omitted from the mainstream media’s coverage.
 
…This week marked the second shooting at Denver East High School, which is reportedly shaken by frequent lockdowns and violence, in the span of weeks. Last month, a 16-year-old classmate was shot dead in his car outside of the school on Feb. 13. Two teens–both DPS students–have been arrested, per KDVR. The slain student’s brother is speaking out on Wednesday’s shooting, asserting that the removal of police begets gun violence. “It could have been avoided if there was a cop there to prevent anything like this from happening or at least just scare the people that are committing crimes like these,” the victim’s sibling said.

Cathell next looks at the Woke removal of police from the Alexandria City Public Schools in Virginia.

In the summer of 2021, the Alexandria City Council voted to end the decades-old SRO program at Alexandria City Public Schools and reallocate police funding towards “mental health resources.” By the fall of that year, the city council reversed course, approving the temporary reinstatement of police in school hallways. “Our students are sending us warning shots, literal warning shots,” Alexandria City High School’s principal Peter Balas said at the council meeting. “My staff, the students–we’re not okay.”Before the reversal, the 2021 academic year was marred by a wave of violent incidents, including the triggering of an ACHS lockdown when a student was found in possession of a handgun, an all-out brawl inside the ACHS cafeteria, which was captured on cellphone camera, just two days after school started, and a fight inside George Washington Middle School. The recording of the GWMS melee was posted by a since-deleted Instagram account, “gwmsfights2022,” dedicated to posting student fights.

She continues examining the shootings at Woke School Districts after they removed the police and trusted the Gods of BLM to protect them.
 
I’m sure Chasten Buttplug will be leading the movement to re-install school resource officers back in schools. After all, he cares so much about the children that he wants to do anything to protect them.
 
By the way: the left has essentially stopped the police from charging its protected classes with crimes, claiming this leads to the “school to prison pipeline.”
 
But not charging criminals with crimes has another result: Those criminals are legally allowed to purchase guns.
 
The left has installed a Crime to Gun Ownership pipeline.
 
But they don’t want to talk about that. They don’t want to talk about charging criminals appropriately so that their felony records prevent them from buying guns legally.
 
No, they just want to take guns away from lawful, responsible gun owners.
 
Because those are Republicans.
 
So let the Democrats — the criminals — buy all the guns they want.
 
Just take them away from the law-abiding Republicans.

Our Schools needs to be taken back from the NEA and the Leftists Brainwashers

Democrats have a long history of taking problems and making them far worse. In the case of gun ownership, they enact policies that all but guarantee an increase in gun violence which they exploit to make MORE laws that punish the law abiding rather than the criminal and, thus, doing nothing to address the actual problem Never in history has a gun, no matter how scary looking, walked on its own into any area and killed anyone.

Leftist culture has made society more dangerous and society has to react accordingly. On a personal level, I go almost no where unarmed. On an institutional level, any facility needs to contained armed responders, be they professional officers or merely legally armed workers. Sadly, this is the situation and we can thank the left for it. It is noteworthy that in that atmosphere, they want to disarm the lawful citizen and render them helpless in the dangerous environment they themselves created, even as they use the money of others to provide armed protection for themselves.
