Even if every gun in the US were rounded up and melted, it'd still be a good idea to limit the number of ways to access the school from a safety point of view.
I get you want to focus on getting rid of guns, but that doesn't seem imminent and knowing the US government if something is done, it will be something stupid rather than something that truly addresses the problem. So putting all the eggs in that basket is probably misguided.
Limiting the means of access to a school leads to additional deaths in the case of a fire. Don't be stupid. Safety point of view my ass.
In addition to which, it creates a bottleneck in case of a shooter outside the school.
The problem is guns. The problem is guns. The problem is guns.
