Minnesota Catholic School Leader Warned Tim Walz Of ‘Critical’ School Safety Threats. He Did Nothing.

Daily Wire: Two years before a shooter opened fire on students attending daily mass in Minneapolis, the leaders of independent and Catholic schools in Minnesota begged Democrat Governor Tim Walz for help securing their schools, according to a 2023 letter reviewed by The Daily Wire. The funding was never authorized.

In a letter dated April 14, 2023 that specifically addressed “school safety in nonpublic schools,” Tim Benz, the president of MINNDEPENDENT and Jason Adkins, the executive director of the Minnesota Catholic Conference, stressed an “urgent and critical need in Minnesota to make sure our schools are secure and safe” in light of “recent, and continuing attacks, on our schools in this country and in our state.”

The letter says there are about 72,000 students in Independent, Catholic, Jewish, Christian and Muslim nonpublic schools within the state of Minnesota. It came just weeks after the shooting at a Christian school in Tennessee, which was also carried about by a transgender-identifying individual in their twenties. more

  1. Reminds me of JAWS. The mayor refused to close the beaches. Now kids are gone and families forever traumatized. Thanks Tim.

    It’s not the guns or even the sick bastards using the guns…. It is directly the fault of the demoncrats who not only cater to the sickos, but encourage their actions to cause terror and chaos.

  2. Frank, good point. At my previous Latin Mass parish our ushers are trained and armed. A mass shooter (pun intended) would not last long before receiving Last Rites.

  3. Almost all private, religious schools require parents to perform several hours of volunteer service, per school year. If you know you’re a target, why aren’t parents guarding their children? Or, raise tuition and hire security. Counting on someone like Tim Walz is patently foolish.
