While I understand the fear of a mass shooting, I don't think that the = solution is for an officer to carry a weapon around our schools. Looking at= the states where shootings have occurred, they've occurred in states with = lax gun laws (not a descriptor for NJ, to say the least). Therefore, I don'= t think that the solution in NJ, especially in this town, is to introduce g= uns into the schools, making an object that was once largely inaccessible n= ow available, walking down the halls with its owner every day. If we had bi= ometric triggers, that'd be one thing, but we don't yet. For safety, I would much prefer that guns be kept in a gun safe(s) where on= ly the officer knows the codes/has access to the safe, or the officer stays= in the front office and have the unarmed security officers who are already= in the schools do the patrolling. The last thing we need is a tussle betwe= en student and officer and the student gets the gun or the officer fears fo= r his life and now we have a dead kid, kids, or dead officer. My husband an= d I both graduated WWPHS South in the mid-2000s - we had security officers = at that time who patrolled and that system was working just fine. The situa= tions the officer is most likely to encounter day to day won't require a gu= n to solve, so why have the gun transported at all times throughout the sch= ool? Finally, if you're going through with this, I suggest limiting employment t= o State Police only. They have much more extensive training than local cops= and will be less biased than a cop who's lived here a long time and knows = all the families. All in all, I am against this plan for many, many reasons beyond the gun is= sue and honestly this is something that will make me reconsider staying in = this town and sending my kids through this system. ~Julia Ryan Please be advised that the Township of West Windsor is subject to the New J= ersey Open Public Records Act.
