I loving called the "armed crossing guards and lunch ladies" thing in previous Trump thread (I think - it might have been this one).

I said they should have grenade launchers though.

serious posting, not that long ago states ran huge mental health hospitals that housed honestly thousands of patients. they were huge and had huge dorm-style buildings to house people who needed help. and heck, they got it. it wasn't the best, but it was certainly better than what happened which was defunding and privatization.

even now at least in NJ if you are having a psychotic episode you can show up to a hospital, get held for a good period of time, but then transferred to a long-term care facility. the problem is that those facilities are full and often times these people have families or other people they need to support, so they purposely avoid treating a psychotic break / depression and just keep working until they off themselves or others. there's just not enough resources to treat people chronically, they just throw them some antipsychotics and hope for the best

mental institutions were monstrous abusive piles of poo poo that needed to be shut down and the current situation is leaps and bounds better because even if the facilities are poorly funded, they're not all locked in a padded gym in their own poo poo and fed out of a trough, or strapped down to a bed for their entire life

also the school had two armed guards, but when they heard gunshots they feared for their lives and ran

there were also cops but but they too feared for their lives, so they stood around the parking lot for 40 minutes while somebody tried to convince a swat team that yes it really is in their contract that they have to go in even when it's not a sleeping family they can flashbang but an actual armed shooter with a real gun
