Well schools could make a distinction so that students could carry “dumb phones” but it would be a parents responsibility to work with the school in following through with the policy. I do agree that students need phones because of this very American problem and these policies really need to be thought out more. Still, these things have to be the responsibility of everyone be it the school, the parent, the child.
@@BenMonares it doesn’t matter what phone you use they will take it away from you. It has happened in my school and it started to happen around all the schools.
Growing up, my dad had loaded guns in our home but we were taught not to ever touch them unless it was an emergency or if my dad took us target practicing. He also instilled in us respect, fear and consequences. I respected and feared police but I feared and respected God and my dad more!
Most responsible gun owners have a least one or two unlocked, loaded firearms for home defense. Handgun, shotgun or rifle. The rest secured, and ammo separated. In today's world, it is better to have an AR pistol, ballistic armor, and handgun due to multiple intruder threat. More readily accessible.
The thing is, you were raised well and your dad probably knew you weren’t a psychopath. It seems like there are parents out there that know their kids have severe mental health problems and aren’t doing enough to keep their guns out of their hands.
So clear and legitimate- you can't leave guns around the house casually- that's what the gun culture wants to do- charge the parents- the consequence of their action are that 4 people were killed-
Day 2…the aftermath….leave the students alone, let them process this horrendous experience and begin their healing…the media needs to place the students’ best interest above ratings
I want to understand your opinion. Don't these children and parents have a choice as to whether they want to be interviewed? Seems like the overwhelming majority decline media attention, I don't know honestly I could be wrong. Do the one's that do the interviews want to have their stories and voices heard? Are you uncomfortable hearing their stories, or do you disagree with their message or the implications of their statements? It's not just the media interviewing these children, law enforcement is interviewing them as well (I don't think they have a choice in this case), is that less traumatizing? I hate MSM, it's all about ratings, they distort the. truth to get views, they do more opining than reporting, they repeat the same stories over and over again as if they are saying different things hour after hour. But stuff like this seems more like their job> I don't have a problem with investigative reporting and interviews of eyewitnesses and victims in tragedies, natural disasters, sporting, and other major events.
I am devastated that these kids have to go through this kind of a traumatic experience. I hope these kids get the therapeutic help they are going to need.
His mom is a junkie. Between that and physical abuse, he didn’t have a chance. Cops were called after he made a threat a year ago and they did nothing.
if they allowed hi access to a weapon after being investigated they are to blame as well- if he got weapon elsewhere then what could they do?? Plus how does a rifle get into school? Security needs to be addressed
Parents or guardians must be held accountable too. May be it will help the coming generations. If rights of Guns are given to parents/guardians it should be their responsibility too when something wrong is done with the gun.
The parents or the guardians can't do anything to the kids anymore if they do they will be repercussions from the cops The government did that where they took the discipline away from parents for a reason and the reason is the government makes money off of them when they get in trouble in and out of court court fees That's why the government did it they think the American people are stupid

To the young Lady who said there is no safety. Well hats off to you. You are absolutely correct by a long shot. God Bless you and yours, and stay safe.
This is what happens when you put rights and liberties over regulations and duties. It's all 4 all the time. Watch how fast the good people of Georgia put their personal rights and liberties over regulations and duties. Actions always speak louder than words.
hey who authorized you to exercise a bill of right with out an FBI background check and where is your permit to use that weapon of disinformation? why haven't you registered with F.A.R.A. Foreign Agents Registration Act yet?
Interview after interview I always tear up every time. I feel so bad for these students. The community, the state of Georgia and this country. Students and teachers shouldn't have to worry about this. It's so messed up. No 14-year-old or any kid should have possession of a gun. There has to be a change
@@adamschrader328 In Georgia, the permitless carry legislation passed in 2022 allows individuals to carry guns without a permit. This law is seen by some as needing revision, particularly because it does not include safe storage regulations. Additionally, there is a call for parental accountability. If a child is experiencing bullying or other issues, it is crucial for parents to provide support and seek assistance for them. The ability of a child to obtain a gun may indicate a lack of parental responsibility.
These Media keep retraumatizing these children. They need to focus on the real victims. Celebrating the lives of the children who were murdered. And informing public about shooter and that he made threats a year ago & was still allowed in school.
@@ketotamz5815can you imagine how it would’ve never happened if this country actually passed laws and institutions into place to prevent these things from happening instead of just continuing to hope and pray that these shootings stop
@chrisbuiles1252 good luck because the 2nd amendment in our constitution. If you go back years, schools shootings have always happened in an election year. How about the 4 that were killed last weekend in Chicago? Not a peep
During an active shooting situation you should never “just follow orders”. Do whatever you have to do to get outside and run! The school is just trying to protect themselves by keeping a count and the police in Texas showed you how much of a crap they give about you. GET OUT by any means necessary and go to the nearest neighbor, gas station, restaurant or whatever and use someone’s phone. You are more productive alive than huddled in a classroom like a group of sitting ducks.
The day after this happened, an Elementary school student in my city had a gun in school. Another student found it and turned it in to a teacher or another staff member. The gun didn’t have any ammo luckily but the fact that an Elementary school student had access to a gun is awful. Idk much on that situation but I’m glad it’s not another shooting. But it’s awful that school shootings are happening more often in recent years...
I want to add in that the school year after I graduated my city started a rule for public schools. In classrooms students have to put their phones in a pocket chart. My thought is, what if there was a shooting in my city? It would take a while for students to receive their phones to call their families and call 911. Despite already graduating, my sister, my other family members, and their friends are still in school. I graduated May, 2023 btw.
This is what happens when you heard children like cattle in schools run like prisons, this also says alot about the family court system and how it allows broken families which has a severe detrimental effect on kids.
Such a low standard for morality these days, no God, no reason, no logic ,no common sense teaching, today's standard are you identifying as whatever you want, obviously he identified as a murdering machine.
@@dino9071 The point I'm trying to make is that there are dozens of knife murders happening in Europe right now. You can't "ban" evil. The problem isn't guns. It is broken culture. An armed security officer solved this problem, but armed security officers can't be everywhere.
This is really awful, somebody has to do something about these kids getting their hands on guns, how can anyone in America advocate a law that allows people to get their hands on guns so easily, God Bless those children and teachers who died and their families who will never get over this terrible tragedy that has come to their lives.
@marydevlin2829 It’s called common sense. Parents need to lock up their firearms in a safe of some sort when they leave the house and do back pack checks before their kids leave for school. It’s not that hard. Now let’s talk about why Illegally obtained firearms by gangs make up the majority of shootings and gun related deaths in this country.
Clarke County School District, which is the next county over from Barrow and where we live, has NO police presence whatsoever. It’s disappointing to know that the school district has no concern for our children and is treating this lightly.
This was horrible. How much worse would it have been if the armed security officer had not been able to stop the murderer. Only one of the two presidential candidates vowed to disarm security officers in schools.
The tragedy of seeing this girl who appears to have grown older than her mother from this experience is insurmountable. The look in her eyes is what I saw in my father, who served during the Vietnam War...a look of having shell shock. She too had been under fire from weapons of war.
14 years old ... When I was 14 was living in Boston. ( Boston Massacre 1770 )The big thing going at the time 1972 was the MUNICH Olympic massacre in Germany and all the people got killed. It's always been a sad world 🌍
This alpha generation is having a lot more trouble than my generation being born in 1983 as an early millennial. It was a lot more innocent 😇 in the mid nineties and columbine changed all that in April 1999 when I was age 15.
Sick and tired of these scenarios, interviewing witnesses and relatives of victims after the shooting. Why not interview politicians after the shooting? They're the ones responsible for it so why not take their words first?
It's inappropriate to suggest that you know someone is feeling traumatized, it's better for the person you're speaking with to get the opportunity to define their own feelings. There's actually a social science behind this, it's called Motivational Interviewing.
The Today show had them go to the school at dawn to do the interview ? This is a sad situation and I hate the way the media uses people in pain . School shooting are the most horrible of all the crimes in the U.S . my kids are homeschooled because our schools are not safe . Parent's rejected putting armed guards on campus after covid so we did not go back.
this guy was interviewed by police officers a year ago, and then didn’t get him any help , assisting , him they had to be addressed, gotta charge the parents who have guns not locked away
Some really bad things that happen today didn't happen in 70s 80s and most of the 90s and if it did happen it was extremely rare not the norm something is going on today that didn't happen during these previous years with kids today we have big problems in this country with mental health
He broke all the gun control laws already in place to prevent this. Do you really think more laws would have mattered? Do you think he would have stopped and thought "Oh..I'm breaking the LAW!!" No, Clueless...
@@bryan3487 Voluntary arming of teachers, a comprehensive look at mental health, the impact of SSRIs on these sorts of behaviors, broken homes, failure of law enforcement to properly investigate known threats, a national reckoning about our broken culture. We have a people problem in this country and not a gun problem.
Parents should be held accountable for their children’s behaviour, if the FBI had information that a child threaten to shoot a school, that parent should have done something to protect other children from their child. No excuse from the parents…..
People need to quit making it a priority to be their child’s friend and start parenting FIRST. My father always made it very clear I was not to touch his gun cabinet for any reason! This dad failed his 14 yr old son and their community by allowing the gun to be accessed and obviously not being involved enough in his son’s social life either to know what was up, surely he just didn’t not care. 💔
School just started and it's already an school shooting. What's sad is that the teenage girl said to her Mom that she doesn't want to go back to school anymore after what just happened 😢😢😢 and honestly I don't blame her because i wouldn't send my kids back to school either after a school shooting. She brings up a good point you can't be safe anywhere not even at your own school.
I pray Mom will Homeschool Ariel from here on out! We homeschool our 12yr. Old daughter, and 14yr old son. There’s many options out there when it comes to homeschooling, and you don’t have to be super smart to homeschool your child. This is tragic, evil, and heartbreaking 💔 I’m so sorry this has happened, and everyone involved is in my thoughts, and prayers!!🙏🏽🙏🏽
It could have been worse; at the start of the school year all the teachers had been given ID badges with a panic button that alerted the police and put the school in lock-down.

If the FBI visits your child get him/her some help. Notify your school, church, relatives and tell everyone to keep them away from guns. Period
How?? If you know, then please consult the authorities! Otherwise, keep your unsubstantiated thoughts to yourself!
You can't lock people up before they do something. You can't keep an eye on everyone either. You can just reduce their access to firearms.

I took my 8 yr old child out of public school. She is home schooled this year.
So many schools want to disallow phones in school. I'm glad this school district allows them.
Because phones and social media contribute to the mindset that causes kids to shoot
They should disallow smart phones but allow flip phones
What makes it scary is that teachers and schools are no longer disciplining bad behavior. All because of parents.
I am a teacher: we are not allowed to. The schools are afraid of being sued.
Sounds like there may have been a lack of emergency training if students were piling up on top of each other in the corner.
To the young Lady who said there is no safety. Well hats off to you. You are absolutely correct by a long shot. God Bless you and yours, and stay safe.
This is what happens when you put rights and liberties over regulations and duties.
It's all 4 all the time.
Watch how fast the good people of Georgia put their personal rights and liberties over regulations and duties.
Actions always speak louder than words.
Only an adult can purchase an AR-15, who gave the kid the AR-15?
Your funny if you think a kid cant get his hands on a AR-15. A gun store isn’t the only way to get a gun.
@@BleuBelairand so much easier to get his daddy's AR-15, which he did because it was easier.
Aw so gullible.
@@BleuBelair Yes, it can be parents or reckless gun owners who do not use a gun safe for their weapons and have their weapons stolen.
hey who authorized you to exercise a bill of right with out an FBI background check and where is your permit to use that weapon of disinformation? why haven't you registered with F.A.R.A. Foreign Agents Registration Act yet?
Interview after interview I always tear up every time. I feel so bad for these students. The community, the state of Georgia and this country. Students and teachers shouldn't have to worry about this. It's so messed up. No 14-year-old or any kid should have possession of a gun. There has to be a change
What change do you propose?
@@adamschrader328 In Georgia, the permitless carry legislation passed in 2022 allows individuals to carry guns without a permit. This law is seen by some as needing revision, particularly because it does not include safe storage regulations. Additionally, there is a call for parental accountability. If a child is experiencing bullying or other issues, it is crucial for parents to provide support and seek assistance for them. The ability of a child to obtain a gun may indicate a lack of parental responsibility.
@@yunglad.kris1 oh please there is no law that would stop sick minded criminals.
Praying for these families
🙏🙏🙏
These Media keep retraumatizing these children. They need to focus on the real victims. Celebrating the lives of the children who were murdered. And informing public about shooter and that he made threats a year ago & was still allowed in school.
I would Never Go Back.
how can you expect these kids to get back to school and pretend it didnt happen.
The resource officer is the one person who stopped the shooter
Still, 2 people we're killed and multiple wounded.
@thxjsxari could you imagine how many more would have died if no resource offers or drills
@@ketotamz5815 Yes, they did protect a lot of people, but there were still people killed so it’s not enough.
@@ketotamz5815can you imagine how it would’ve never happened if this country actually passed laws and institutions into place to prevent these things from happening instead of just continuing to hope and pray that these shootings stop
@chrisbuiles1252 good luck because the 2nd amendment in our constitution. If you go back years, schools shootings have always happened in an election year. How about the 4 that were killed last weekend in Chicago? Not a peep
Typical day in USA. Just ridiculous. Rights over lives…..complete madness. 🙄
Kid told what he was going to do last year…
During an active shooting situation you should never “just follow orders”. Do whatever you have to do to get outside and run! The school is just trying to protect themselves by keeping a count and the police in Texas showed you how much of a crap they give about you. GET OUT by any means necessary and go to the nearest neighbor, gas station, restaurant or whatever and use someone’s phone. You are more productive alive than huddled in a classroom like a group of sitting ducks.
Yeah why not go out the window .if I was teacher I break the window to get my class out ..
This is getting ridiculous. How is a 14 year old getting access to guns? This has got to stop.😢
The day after this happened, an Elementary school student in my city had a gun in school. Another student found it and turned it in to a teacher or another staff member.
The gun didn’t have any ammo luckily but the fact that an Elementary school student had access to a gun is awful.
Idk much on that situation but I’m glad it’s not another shooting.
But it’s awful that school shootings are happening more often in recent years...
I want to add in that the school year after I graduated my city started a rule for public schools.
In classrooms students have to put their phones in a pocket chart.
My thought is, what if there was a shooting in my city? It would take a while for students to receive their phones to call their families and call 911.
Despite already graduating, my sister, my other family members, and their friends are still in school.
I graduated May, 2023 btw.
HOW DOSE AN ELEMENTARY STUDENT GET A GUN , THEY ARE STILL LEARNING HOW TO DIVIDE????
She’s right. You aren’t safe anywhere. Prayers for these kids.
Right sad but true
HOW DID HE WALK INTO THAT SCHOOL WITH THAT GUN??????????????????????????????
The Sheriff Said He hid it in his Backpack That Morning
This is what happens when you heard children like cattle in schools run like prisons, this also says alot about the family court system and how it allows broken families which has a severe detrimental effect on kids.
Yeah but itll get worse. I know that, because nobody cares to do anything about it.
Such a low standard for morality these days, no God, no reason, no logic ,no common sense teaching, today's standard are you identifying as whatever you want, obviously he identified as a murdering machine.
Check the student bag before enter in gate of school.
Check every student every time every student enters a room with a window that can be opened.
I’m trying to figure out if that school had metal detectors or not???
@@Latenightlisaevery time that is proposed, people vote it down
@@Latenightlisaone student said no.
Can’t control people with guns, why have em?
Thank you for your courage to share your experience student & parent.
HOME SCHOOL !!!
So sad.. 😭
Being an european it is unbelievable that people in America can own these kind of guns or any guns.
I know, right? 😢
How are those knives working out for you?
@@MS-1994are you frightened of a 14 year old kid with a knife ? It really seems that is the point your trying to make .
@@dino9071 The point I'm trying to make is that there are dozens of knife murders happening in Europe right now. You can't "ban" evil. The problem isn't guns. It is broken culture. An armed security officer solved this problem, but armed security officers can't be everywhere.
@@dino9071yes I would be afraid of a 14 year old with a knife, if I wasn't carrying my gun.
4:54 If it is an option for you homeschooling or online alternatives to public schools may be a safer answer.
Maybe stop taking Christmas photos with your toddlers holding up AR-15’s
But what did the students do to the shooter that caused him to snap????????? That's the missing story!
What is happening to our country? Lord God, we need You to heal our land.
This is really awful, somebody has to do something about these kids getting their hands on guns, how can anyone in America advocate a law that allows people to get their hands on guns so easily, God Bless those children and teachers who died and their families who will never get over this terrible tragedy that has come to their lives.
It's not as easy as you imply.
@marydevlin2829 It’s called common sense. Parents need to lock up their firearms in a safe of some sort when they leave the house and do back pack checks before their kids leave for school. It’s not that hard. Now let’s talk about why Illegally obtained firearms by gangs make up the majority of shootings and gun related deaths in this country.
What law are you talking about?
CALM DOWN, in the united states unless you are depressed or involved in criminal activity your chances of being involved in a gun 💀 are extremely low
over half of all gun deaths in the united states are self inflicted and the vast majority of the rest are either drug or gang related
Clarke County School District, which is the next county over from Barrow and where we live, has NO police presence whatsoever. It’s disappointing to know that the school district has no concern for our children and is treating this lightly.
Sadly, this is going to be a repetitive situation.
She's in shock. One day at a time.
Absolutely heartbreaking
The kid was on the FBI radar from last year ! HMMMMM
This was horrible. How much worse would it have been if the armed security officer had not been able to stop the murderer. Only one of the two presidential candidates vowed to disarm security officers in schools.
Safety doesnt work that just makes outside a bigger easier target just dont panic.. or move to a safe school
Congrats, America, land of the free, born unsafe.
The tragedy of seeing this girl who appears to have grown older than her mother from this experience is insurmountable. The look in her eyes is what I saw in my father, who served during the Vietnam War...a look of having shell shock. She too had been under fire from weapons of war.
They couldn’t change the ending of that video to something more somber?
14 years old ...
When I was 14 was living in Boston. ( Boston Massacre 1770 )The big thing going at the time 1972 was the MUNICH Olympic massacre in Germany and all the people got killed.
It's always been a sad world 🌍
Thankfully it’s rare in Germany and other first world countries. Sadly, it’s multiple times a year here in the US.
@@rachelt4792ummm, you had the Erfurt Massacre
@@cc74fl oh I see, 2002. That’s why I said it’s rare. In the US, we had an uptick in the 90s and 2000s with a major increase in the 2010s and 2020s.
I wouldn't feel safe sending my child back to that school either, and I feel sad that this is the world that they have to live in.
When she said the phone went dead I cried. She must have been hysterical.
Children are NOT innocent angels!
This alpha generation is having a lot more trouble than my generation being born in 1983 as an early millennial. It was a lot more innocent 😇 in the mid nineties and columbine changed all that in April 1999 when I was age 15.
Sick and tired of these scenarios, interviewing witnesses and relatives of victims after the shooting.
Why not interview politicians after the shooting? They're the ones responsible for it so why not take their words first?
I am in tears at my kitchen table listening to this. This has to STOP! Where were this killers' parents, how they did not know!
What a dumb question to ask the student after the incident: "How are you feeling?" Journalist of the Year.
Not dumb it helps encourage people to discuss the situation
It's about showing compassion before the interview.
literally 😂 the original post clearly doesn’t understand how empathy works lol
It’s a gesture of care. What else is the interviewer supposed to say?
It's inappropriate to suggest that you know someone is feeling traumatized, it's better for the person you're speaking with to get the opportunity to define their own feelings. There's actually a social science behind this, it's called Motivational Interviewing.
Easy access to guns is the problem
Not surprised at all as these episodes are common in the U.S of A. Sadly.
The Today show had them go to the school at dawn to do the interview ? This is a sad situation and I hate the way the media uses people in pain . School shooting are the most horrible of all the crimes in the U.S . my kids are homeschooled because our schools are not safe . Parent's rejected putting armed guards on campus after covid so we did not go back.
Great point. And they bring them back to the school at night so they can get them on 'tv' then, too. Unreal.
this guy was interviewed by police officers a year ago, and then didn’t get him any help , assisting , him they had to be addressed, gotta charge the parents who have guns not locked away
Some really bad things that happen today didn't happen in 70s 80s and most of the 90s and if it did happen it was extremely rare not the norm something is going on today that didn't happen during these previous years with kids today we have big problems in this country with mental health
First time this happened was in 1999
@@PraveenSrJ01 l just don't get it but I'm old 60 what kind of very weak coward does such a thing so sickening
@@PraveenSrJ01 l can't even imagine being so very weak to ever do such a thing so warped
@@gloriamaletta8667 I definitely agree it is very sick and selfish
They need to change all of the gun laws in usa
He broke all the gun control laws already in place to prevent this. Do you really think more laws would have mattered? Do you think he would have stopped and thought "Oh..I'm breaking the LAW!!" No, Clueless...
Start protecting the schools like Politicians and Banks are protected!
Gun control is not the answer.
They let in millions of illegals, foot the 459 billion a year bill for them, but won't hire officers to protect our schools.
There were four armed SRO's at the school so an armed security presence did not help. Any other suggestions?
Metal detectors
Clear bookbags
Bag checks
Just like they do at the airport and government builds!
@@bryan3487 Voluntary arming of teachers, a comprehensive look at mental health, the impact of SSRIs on these sorts of behaviors, broken homes, failure of law enforcement to properly investigate known threats, a national reckoning about our broken culture. We have a people problem in this country and not a gun problem.
Parents should be held accountable for their children’s behaviour, if the FBI had information that a child threaten to shoot a school, that parent should have done something to protect other children from their child. No excuse from the parents…..
People need to quit making it a priority to be their child’s friend and start parenting FIRST. My father always made it very clear I was not to touch his gun cabinet for any reason! This dad failed his 14 yr old son and their community by allowing the gun to be accessed and obviously not being involved enough in his son’s social life either to know what was up, surely he just didn’t not care. 💔
School just started and it's already an school shooting. What's sad is that the teenage girl said to her Mom that she doesn't want to go back to school anymore after what just happened 😢😢😢 and honestly I don't blame her because i wouldn't send my kids back to school either after a school shooting. She brings up a good point you can't be safe anywhere not even at your own school.
Home school pls ppl.
Not the answer. Sorry.
@@cowetascore8476 what’s your solution?
Home school don't let her go back😮
I pray Mom will Homeschool Ariel from here on out! We homeschool our 12yr. Old daughter, and 14yr old son. There’s many options out there when it comes to homeschooling, and you don’t have to be super smart to homeschool your child.
This is tragic, evil, and heartbreaking 💔 I’m so sorry this has happened, and everyone involved is in my thoughts, and prayers!!🙏🏽🙏🏽
omg 😥😭omg what a beautiful thing to say on her Math teacher, Wow
Prayers go out to you all🙏😇
It could have been worse; at the start of the school year all the teachers had been given ID badges with a panic button that alerted the police and put the school in lock-down.
These kids will never go back to this school it is a scar forever. I feel for them actually. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
😢 even though I live in Cincinnati this breaks my heart ♥ 😢😢
