In Tacloban City, Philippines, two students, aged 14 and 15, opened fire at San Jose National High School, resulting in the deaths of three students and injuries to seven others. The suspects, who were reportedly bullied, were arrested after the attack. The incident has prompted President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. to call for a thorough investigation and increased security in schools. The shooting highlights concerns about firearm access and school safety in the Philippines, where such incidents are rare despite the prevalence of unlicensed guns.
QUESTION: How might increased security measures in schools impact students’ sense of safety and freedom?
