Well obviously the solution is to design a school with gun racks under every desk. All the good guys have guns = no more shootings.
That's good but I think I've found an opportunity for even more guns to solve this problem: put guns inside every pupil, so that if they get shot they can shoot the bullets back out.

They are designing new schools to take into account active shooters,

They have just turned it into an escape room shoot them up game. Killers can hide as well, crowd people in.

What they going to do when this does not work.

Rhetorical.
