In far too many cases, a single incident sparks a series of gun control measures. That played out in pro-gun Florida in the wake of Parkland, and as a Georgian, it’s been my hope that it wouldn’t play out after the Apalachee High School shooting in Winder, Georgia.
Of course, there are always going to be some lawmakers who want just that, but there will also be those that oppose it.
Apalachee High was a terrible tragedy, but the loss of life wasn’t the same as Parkland. It didn’t rattle people quite the same way. Had it not happened in an election year, it’s unlikely it would have gotten nearly as much press, if we’re being honest.
Just the same, some want gun control in Georgia, and the Republican speaker of the House is proposing some new legislation in response.
Georgia’s House Speaker Jon Burns outlined new proposals aimed at improving school safety and addressing mental health concerns following the tragic school shooting at Apalachee High School on September 4, 2024. The shooting, which left four people dead—including two teachers and two students—has prompted renewed debate over gun control and school security across the state.
In a statement released Thursday, Burns proposed a series of reforms that focus on mental health support, firearm detection in schools, and gun storage safety. These measures are seen as the Republican leadership’s first legislative response to the shooting, which has sparked a wave of discussions on how to prevent future incidents.
Burns, who represents Newington and holds a key position in Georgia’s Republican-led House, emphasized the importance of addressing mental health issues, suggesting improved communication between schools, law enforcement, and mental health workers. His proposal aims to prevent the kinds of communication breakdowns that may have contributed to the Apalachee High School shooting. The suspect, 14-year-old [name redacted], had previously been questioned by authorities in 2023 over threats to another school, but no charges were filed.
“We are aware that a breakdown in communication between school systems and law enforcement officials allowed the shooter’s prior history to slip through the cracks,” Burns said.
Burns also called for expanding mental health services in schools through Georgia’s Apex program, which helps students access counseling and mental health care. Although the Apex program currently covers 31% of students in the state, Burns aims to broaden its reach to prevent future tragedies.
One of Burns’ most notable proposals involves the use of new technologies, such as artificial intelligence and advanced camera systems, to detect firearms before they enter school grounds. While some schools already use metal detectors, the speaker believes these new technologies could be more effective in preventing guns from reaching classrooms. […]

Controlling Protein Is One of the Globalists’ Primary Goals
Between the globalists, corporate interests, and our own government, the food supply is being targeted from multiple angles. It isn’t just silly regulations and misguided subsidies driving natural foods away. Bird flu, sabotaged food processing plants, mysterious deaths of entire cattle herds, arson attacks, and an incessant push to make climate change the primary consideration for all things are combining for a perfect storm to exacerbate the ongoing food crisis.
The primary target is protein. Specifically, they’re going after beef as the environmental boogeyman. They want us eating vegetable-based proteins, lab-grown meat, or even bugs instead of anything that walked the pastures of America. This is why we launched a long-term storage prepper beef company that provides high-quality food that’s shelf-stable for up to 25-years.
At Prepper All-Naturals, we believe Americans should be eating real food today and into the future regardless of what the powers-that-be demand of us. We will never use lab-grown beef. We will never allow our cattle to be injected with mRNA vaccines. We will never bow to the draconian diktats of the climate change cult.
