I believe most of my readers are probably aware of what happened in Connecticut today. A 20 year old man entered a elementary school and killed 20 kids and 6 adults. While many people are calling for more laws against guns, that is unlikely to happen in a significant manner. People will correctly point out that on this same day, 20 children were injured at a school in China by a man wielding a knife. You do not need a gun to kill people.
So, how will we protect schools and our children? Lets go back to an earlier post that I made. XBox with kinnect can now identify everyone in a room. As many of you may or may not know, many schools are now requiring students to have a Facebook account so that they can receive their homework assignments. I find it amusing that "Face"book has some of the best biometric facial recognition in the world and over 1 billion users. The schools will be equipped with facial scanners at the entrances and classrooms will be equipped with cameras that identify all the students, there will not be a requirement to have an RFID chip in your school ID, it simply is not necessary.
My heart and prayers go out to the families and friends of all those who have been impacted by these horrendous events in China and Connecticut. I cannot possibly understand what they must be going through and searching for a way to prevent this from ever happening again is natural. The purpose of this post is merely to outline what I believe will occur in response to what has already happened.
