So you make it needlessly pointless to do it without giving notice. doing it without notice shows how people will actually react in an emergency. if you announce it 5 hours ahead of time everyone knows. and I never said the teachers and staff shouldn't know. go read any article from witnesses of a mass shooting, they all talk about how it's different than they imagined. --- I could see you, but I couldn't hear you You were holding your hat in the breeze Turning away from me In this moment you were stolen... |

Actually let's look at this another way. a drill? someone(whoever is the first to see the fake shooter) calls the alarm. And then everyone acts as if it was a real active shooter. and then it gets cleared when the cops/admins in charge conclude that the drill is finished. I guess if it's middle school kids we're talking about they should probably be warned ahead of time, but this article was about high school kids and they should be prepared for an active shooter without 3+ hours notice. and once again, it should be at school, not on a field trip, and no one should be using anything that sounds like real gunshots. --- I could see you, but I couldn't hear you You were holding your hat in the breeze Turning away from me In this moment you were stolen... |

Alternatively, several people who usually agree with you are telling you how tone-deaf and stupid your arguments are. yeah but I'm not just going to alter my opinion to agree with them either.

I've worked in nursing homes for 20 years. I've literally been through hundreds of fire/distaster drills, and a few real fires. If everyone knows ahead of time that a drill is happening, it's not taken seriously. people just "plan ahead" and clear the hallways and get everyone ready. this is not helpful, because it's not how a real fire emergency would ever happen. and this is adults. kids take it even less serious. I really feel like I need to say it again: the police absolutely fucked this up. this kind of drill should only be done in school, and they should not be using anything that sounds like real gunshots. --- I could see you, but I couldn't hear you You were holding your hat in the breeze Turning away from me In this moment you were stolen... |

Of piss off with that nonsense. it's not nonsense I've seen how people react to pre-announced fire drills, vs surprise fire drills, vs real fires. People take the surprise drills much more seriously, and do what they're supposed to do, because they don't know it's just a drill. if everyone active shooter drill a kid goes through is something they know about 3 hours ahead of time, what happens when there's a real shooter? they treat it like a drill, not something serious.
