Ivy Schamis, then a teacher at Parkland's Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School, was leading students through a discussion about the 1936 Olympics in Nazi Germany when star swimmer Nick Dworet correctly responded that Adolf Dassler founded the Adidas shoe company. He then added that Dassler's brother founded the rival Puma brand.
She said the students scrambled to find safety behind furniture, but didn't panic and acted with bravery and maturity as they waited to be rescued. Three students were wounded in her class and two were killed: Dworet and Helena Ramsay, both 17.“That’s my girl, Helena Ramsay,” she said. “Nicholas Dworet, handsome boy.”
Nine other gunmen who killed at least 17 people died during or immediately after their shootings, either by suicide or police gunfire. The suspect in the 2019 slaying of 23 people at a Walmart in El Paso, Texas, is awaiting trial.

Teachers sacrificed their lives to save their students while hundreds of heavily armed police officers cowardly sat outside an unlocked door and did nothing while children were murdered. Remember that the next time your country/province/state/city budget comes up for debate.
