You rang?
But I don't see this as a republican or democrat thing.
I see it more in terms of it being a "Deep State" thang.
And the "Deep State" is a figment of the American right's fevered imagination.
Then it may be the "Deep Dark State".
But seriously, having a power group, independent of governments, is a logical imperative.
People simply need to understand pseudoscience psychology in depth.
The Deep State was the invention Trump and his cult, giving a sinister name to government bureaucrats who did their job by opposing his illegal and nonsensical machinations.

But you do understand that a non-government aligned power group is a logical imperative, right?
False conspiracy theories flourish after Texas shooting in familiar pattern

I'm sorry you feel it necessary to characterise this very basic rule as unfortunate.

To the surprise of no-one, the usual ghouls shuffle into daylight with the predictable commentary:
Not surprisingly, Cruz has made it his life’s work—when he’s not jetting off to Cancún amid state-wide emergencies—to make it easier for Americans to obtain guns, and during his bid for the presidency in 2016, outright bragged about blocking President Barack Obama’s attempt to advance gun control legislation in the wake of the Sandy Hook massacre that left 20 children and six adults dead. “There’s a reason when Barack Obama and Chuck Schumer came after our right to keep and bear arms, that I led the opposition,” Cruz said during a debate. “Along with millions of Americans, we defeated that gun control legislation. I would note that the other individuals on this stage were nowhere to be found in that fight.” For his part, Trump briefly pretended to be interested in doing something about guns following the Parkland shooting, before caving to the NRA and proposing that, instead, we arm teachers who could “solve the problem instantly” if “a savage sicko came to a school with bad intentions.”

Basically the formula followed by all these deplorable republicans was designed by the architect of the MAGA movement and advisor to Trump, far right editor of Breitbart Steve Bannon
https://edition.cnn.com/2021/11/16/medi ... index.html
That's the Bannon business model: Flood the zone. Stink up the joint. As Jonathan Rauch once said, citing Bannon's infamous quote, "This is not about persuasion: This is about disorientation."

One door for the entire school?
What a genius...

Where I live it's customary that all entrance doors to all schools are locked 24/7.
Admin and custodial staff have keys.
The doors are propped open for about 10 minutes in the morning, for teachers.
Teachers who are late buzz in on a camera and admin will open the door for them (by remote).
At entry time, teachers have duty supervision which includes going to the doors to hold them open.
Classes queue by teacher and are escorted in by a few teachers who are outside on supervision duties.
Then the doors lock again.
They are thick steel fire doors and they don't open again until recess or lunch, when the same process happens.
Classroom doors can be ajar, but teachers use their key to keep doorknobs in the "locked" position.
If a door is shut suddenly (e.g., during lockdown), it will automatically be locked.
Parents and community do not enter the school except for arranged meetings with teachers.
Meetings happen when students have left the building for the day.
For meetings, the teacher will meet them at the doors to escort them inside.
Many of the inner-city schools have metal detectors.
I don't know of any school shootings here, ever, except for the École in 1989.

Big stores have a single entrance/exit door. But they also have emergency exit only doors.
