How should states address school safety and hate crimes, and what are your thoughts on introducing stricter laws?

Saftey of students is really important and we have to figure out how to stop the slaughtering of students and the violence words and actions aginst them. Everyone has the right to live to be happy and to be themselves.

think school safety should be at the top of our list of concerns

Address school safety by allowing – or requiring – teachers to be armed. Address alleged "hate crimes" by telling kids to suck it up and become stronger.

our school system needs to become safer for all walks of life.

I believe that discrimination in schools is on the rise and there must be more protections for students, both socially, mentally, and also from gun violence.

I think the police department should lock in.

be more strict on what you can bring to schools

A kid was murdered and the murderers got a short suspension and that's it.

School safety should be a priority

They should address them strictly. Schools should be places that are always safe, and hate crimes should never be looked past. I feel like if you are found guilty of committing a hate crime or violating school safety protocols you should be punished. Stricter laws could be good if handled well.

I feel like nothing is being done and everything is getting worse every day. It needs to be paid attention to and fixed.

I think violence rates need to go down all across the country.

everyone talks about some topic for some reason and thats important

I agree it should be focused on more often with all the shootings happening

I think there should be stricter rules and consequences.

They should focus more on the things people want to hear about.

My opinion is I truly believe states should address school safety and hate crimes because it just raises fear and concern in society and that is not okay when it has to come to "living in fear".

How should schools handle student safety and security

I think they should be telling people about the schools and stuff because people or kids need to know about it
