| My heart just breaks for those poor kids... and even more for the parents who have to learn that their son or daughter was one of the fatalities. I cannot even begin to imagine. There are no words... Many prayers for the families. |

So the shooter was 19 years old.. he pulled the fire alarm in the hallway and begin shooting students as they were filing out of the rooms.. horrific murder! He had been expelled from that school for misconduct apparently. |

          Location: Dearing, GA | This school is one of the many I work with here in Broward County. I was scheduled to be there on Tuesday of next week. I am simply heartbroken for these families... Driving home past the scene tonight was gut wrenching. Please pray for the community of Parkland and Coral Springs, FL.
There are a total of 17 deceased at this time. Someone (maybe the shooter) pulled the fire alarm so students were rushing into the hallways as the shooter began to fire inside the school.
ETA: It is confirmed, the shooter pulled the fire alarm to bring students into the hall.

Have they said how he was even allowed in the school? He'd been expelled for past behavior issues. |

I'm guessing he just showed up. He knew if he pulled the fire alarm they'd all come out. I'm not sure how long he'd been suspended for but I do know he wasn't allowed on campus with a backpack. Somehow he slipped through. I also heard, which may or may not be valid that he was a member of Antifa. Be interesting to see what details come about over the next several days. |

    Location: North Dakota | I read that this is a school with 3000 students... hard to manage who goes in and out in that type of size. I went to a highschool with 1500 kids and I know we all walked in and out of school as we pleased. There weren't people at the doors checking you in or out. |

| I teach in a High School of 3700 students and its like prison here.... but its Awesome! Our school was actually built and designed based on blue prints of a prison. lol We are " L" shaped 2 buildings. Only one way in and one way out. All of the teachers on the outside classrooms can see the whole outside of the school, all of us across the hall on the inside can see the whole inner campus. We have auto locking doors, and we don't use desks, we have solid wood 3 person tables that can easily be tipped over and form quite a solid barrier. I do wish every student was searched every day, but that might not be feasable with our size. |

| Itβs a sad world we live in that we have to have desks to stop bullets and that we have to think about things like that. Many prayers to the victims and loved ones. |
