My high school had a fatal shooting the year after I graduated, long before Columbine. My younger brother was within 200 feet of the two armed students when one opened fire, wounding a teacher and an assistant principal and killing another assistant principal. You bet your ass I worry about school shootings.

The recent incidents of adults invading schools is very disturbing because of the copycat factor. Our school system has really stepped up their lockdown drills and we've had at least two lockdowns of multiple schools in the past week because of crimes near schools.
