POL BLAMES EXIT DOORS

REDESIGNING SCHOOLS could help cut down on school shootings, according to the lieutenant governor of Texas. “There are too many entrances and too many exits to our over 8,000 campuses in Texas,” the state’s second in command, Dan Patrick, said Friday after 10 people were murdered at Sante Fe High School. The politician made no reference to gun control and insisting that limiting access to school buildings is the key to keeping kids safe. Santa Fe High School had recently completed a state safety course and had two officers on campus, Patrick said. “This is not acceptable in the state of Texas or in this country,” Patrick said. “This must end and we must do everything we can. We can’t protect every parking lot, every stadium and every building, but we can sure do better.”
