Shooting in Middle School in Jeff Co

[coop68]

i am waiting on more info on this cause from my understanding most schools now 9th grade and under are in lock down 24/7 all doors going in are locked besides when kids are dropped off and picked up, the schools i know of you have to press a button and they look at you from a camra and you have to state why you are there than they buzz you in. alot of the main glass doors are bullet proof too, but than again im up north in boulder county. this is what i had to do when i was a student aid.

Even though we had the Emily Keyes situation we can still go to the school and walk right in during school hours.

Interesting, I've never once heard of a school doing that, and I wouldn't want to send my kid to a school that did.

Both helicopters just came back over. One was 850 KOA. Probably going up I-25 to report the traffic.

my senior year my old k-5th grade school did this every day i had to press the button. Even the schools here in NE have something in the same lines, out here there is a bullet proof class between you and the person and a speaker like you would find at a bank even a trofft or way to transfer papers with out contact pretty crazy!

Mtn Man is right im up north by boulder so there are plenty of people that will fork over the money up here.

what blows my mind is that boulder high school is right next to Gun sport the only gun store in boulder 100 yards not even from the school off 14th and arapohe?

Update: per the bus driver that watched the shooting and helped subdue the suspect informed the media that the rifle was a 30/30. The shooting took place outside the school at dismissal. Sounds like several staff members did thier part in getting this man down. Described as 20 something male.

Definately Hi Powered,, next thing it will be an "assault" 30/30.

First time there has been a shooter alive afterward? Well, didn't some middle school kids try to snipe some kids at an elementary school some where in the midwest a little after Columbine? I don't remember.

Unfortunate... And once again: "Gun free" zones are "safe zones" for criminals.

To the two guys who tackled him: Should've "accidently" twisted the neck on the way down.

Praying for the families....
