In the aftermath of the Texas elementary school massacre, U.S. schools increase security staff and restrict visitors as they deal with copycat threats
Video shows parents begging police officers to charge into the Texas elementary school where a gunman's rampage killed 19 children and two teachers.
Mia Baucom, a 15-year-old student at a Forth Worth, Texas, high school said it was surreal to think the Uvalde killings happened in her home state. It also stirred memories of a lockdown at her school two months ago that was prompted by a shooting. In Jacksonville, Florida, the Duval County Public Schools' chief of school police banned backpacks or large handbags at any school through Friday, the last day of school. Small purses were allowed but could be searched.
