Vance's plan would not only supposedly make it harder for a school shooter to get into the school - they wouldn't have stopped Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold because they were enrolled in the school they shot up - but will definitely make it much harder for people who don't want to be killed to flee.

This doesn't sound like the greatest idea anyone ever had.
