    Forget the school, the individuals in the administration are the ones that need to be sued.

    No, they need individual punishmemt, too.

    They were not saying as well but instead of.

    Personally, I believe they should be barred from any position in education but that is not what I was replying to.

      Barring them isn’t enough. The only acceptable place is prison. Criminal negligence and child endangerment charges at the minimum.

        You have your opinion, I have mine.

        Criminal negligence and child endangerment

        That sounds like something for the person (parent, I assume) that gave the child access to a pistol.
