School Safety Takes Center Stage After CT Shooting

From coast to coast, last week’s shooting at Connecticut’s Sandy Hook Elementary School has brought discussions on school safety center stage.

FOX News Radio’s Jennifer Keiper reports:

Audio clip:

A few thousand miles away from Newtown, Connecticut, police and school administrators try to reassure Los Angeles parents and students:

(LAPD Chief Charlie Beck) “Our schools are safe.  We’ll make them safer.”

While L.A. cops will be posted at all elementary and middle schools starting next month, Texas Governor Rick Perry supports arming teachers and administrators in his state.

(Perry) “If you go through the process and you are a concealed handgun licensed carrying individual, you should be able to carry your handgun anywhere in this state.”

But fellow Republican Governor Scott Walker of Wisconsin says there are no perfect solutions to preventing a shooting like the one at Sandy Hook Elementary School.

    There should be cops in every school , not just elementary but middle school, high school and colleges as well, even in the work place. We have seen too many shootings like this happen and there needs to be something done to prevent innocent people from loosing there lives. We need to be reassured that we are safe and our children as well.
