How does that even work? I’m glad lives were saved but the system must have something I’m missing.

If there is a button on the back of the badge with your picture on it, you can’t use someone else’s badge. It also means there are electronics in the badge, and therefore a battery.

Over time batteries will die and the badge system will become useless unless everyone gets new badges once a semester.

Or we could you know, reduce the number of guns. Wonder who the investors are in these school "safety" companies.
