      Tell me again how the Texas Lottery is helping school funding?

      Didn't they just give us the freedom to legalize sports gambling? Can we not add to that amount with that measure?

      Those millions and funding should be ZERO issue !

          It will just be a legal justification to prosecute a parent if the child takes guns out of the closet and goes on a shooting spree.

              Thats what they will claim at first. But you know as well as I do that as days come and go and yrs past the " Intent and purpose" of the law will change and have new meaning.

                    Don't laugh. Never under-estimate the power of stupid people in large groups.

If metal detectors cost $4,000 each, then the total price tag for equipping the state school buildings would run about $36.4 million.”



                      These are some interesting figures (for about half of a HS football stadium, we can get metal detectors). I can also see how it could create bottle necks that would make it easier for a shooter to just attack from the outside. A stop and frisk could be a lot cheaper than detectors and probably just as big of a deterrent.


                      Schools in this state **** away 4 times that much on iPads, landscaping, and organic options in the cafeteria… I don't want to hear about the price.

                                With all due respect, your math is off. Since tax dollars would be used for procurement, the price tag for each MD would be closer to $10K each. You always need to budget for abuse, fraud & corruption with our tax dollars.
