In May of this year, two large -scale shooting incidents in the United States were shocked. Awesome, officials of Madison said that they and the local police placed a semi-automatic rifle codenamed AR-15 among the six schools in the county to protect the safety of school personnel.

Sheriff Hald said that each gun will be stored in a safe.

It is reported that the AR-15 is a very popular half-automatic weapon that can launch a large-capacity magazine. In recent years, this weapon has frequently appeared in large American shootings.

It is worth noting that in the two large-scale shooting incidents in the United States, the gunmen used AR-15.

A more serious shooting occurred six years ago. At the Pulse nightclub in Orlando, Florida, the gunman used AR-15 to murder, causing 49 people to die.

Dorothy Esperach is a professor at the School of Education of the North Carolina University Church Mountains. For decades, she has been committed to studying and investigating school safety and student health. She did not agree with this proposal to equip the school with AR-15 rifle.

Esperach said: "I have a hunch that these guns can cause accidents. The existence of the police in the school only leads to an increase in the incidence of fire violence in school guns, and more children are arrested. Therefore, why they have to have to be necessary. To be equipped with these AR-15? This doesn't make any sense. "

Halwood responded to this: "In the case of emergencies, we can break the door in time without having to run out of the car to get weapons. Of course, I hope we will never use these weapons, but I hope that the team members can always do it at all times Good preparation. "

According to the website of the Madison County School, the school plans to reopen on August 22.

There are also comments that this behavior is "violent violence", and the cure is not cured. The root cause of the violence of campus guns is the flood of firearms caused by the collusion between the United States and business.

So far this year, there have been 27 campus shootings in the United States. Among them, the Dazhou Primary School shooting is the most deadly campus shooting in the past ten years, causing a tragedy of 19 children and 2 teachers.

The total number of deaths in May also exceeded the number of Parkland high school shootings in Florida in 2018. The attack killed 17 people.
