Senator Graham Unveils Plan To Help Employ Veterans To Stop School Shootings – By Daily Wire News (Daily Wire) / June 4, 2022
Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) revealed Friday that he is working on a plan to help employ veterans of the U.S. Military to stop shootings from happening at schools across the country.
The statement from Graham comes after 21 people, including 19 children, lost their lives in a shooting last week at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas, after an 18-year-old Hispanic male opened fire inside the school. The Daily Wire is not naming the shooter due to company policy about not giving notoriety to mass shooters.
“We have hundreds of thousands of well-trained former military members who could bring a lot to the table in terms of school security,” Graham wrote on Twitter. “ROTC instructors with firearms training should be allowed to possess weapons to enhance school security.”
“I will be working to create a certification process that allows former military members to go through school security training and become available to school districts throughout the country,” Graham continued. “It is time to mobilize our retired and former service members who are willing to help secure our schools. Our schools are soft targets. They contain our most valuable possession – our children, the future of our country – and must be protected. ”
