An academic commentator examines responses to the Feb. 2026 Tumbler Ridge, B.C. school shooting, arguing that single tragedies often prompt rapid increases in visible security, police presence, and AI-driven threat assessment tools. The author cites studies from 2010–2025 showing mixed effectiveness and disproportionate harms to marginalized students, and urges investment in relational prevention, mental-health supports, and multidisciplinary intervention rather than expanded surveillance.
