There are no 'safe school zones.'

The parents at Chardon are saying the typical things. 'This is the last place I thought this would happen." "We moved here because it was safe."

There are areas that are in safer areas as far as crime rates. Some schools have horrible problems with violence in and around their schools.

However, any school in any area can become a victim of gun violence. It doesn't take gangs or other things to create this horrible situation.

All it takes is a someone with some terrifying plan because of some reason that may only make sense to them.

This is the world we are in now. Closer monitoring of kids, paying attention to what goes on between students and checking for guns may help. It will not stop it.

SMH!
