Purdue University Homeland Security Institute: Guns In Schools Save Lives





The research has not yet been published but will be soon.



  1. I wonder what the effect on the response time and casualty count would be if, keeping the 5-10% of staff carrying concealed, but instead of simply "sheltering in place," they take the (also conservative) tactic of periodically checking the hallway outside their classrooms and (possibly) engaging the shooter if they spot him/her.

    Not actively searching the building, but not just sheltering behind a closed-and-locked door, either.

    Ideally, also add in intercom or radio communication between classrooms and the administrators' office, to track the shooter's location and movement and immediately direct EMTs to any casualties.

  2. Yeah, THAT one is gonna be suppressed... Just watch...
