My kids' school recently had an active shooter drill like we used to do fire drills when I was a kid. They said they all had hiding spots to go to and they thought it was pretty scary. They're in elementary school. It's definitely not normal that instead of doing something about the guns we have to teach kids to hide from gunmen because that's just a legit possibility now.
I had those a decade+ ago when I was in school
I had these in middle school... Which would have been the late 1990's...
It's definitely normal... I'm not sure what the person you responded to is going on about.
I was in high school in the early 90s, we never had active ahooter drills, we just had the occasional lockdown due to gang wars...
Do gangs operate without guns where you live?
Lockdown is different from a drill. It's as of I said we never had fire drills, but the school burned down a couple times.
Ah fair enough.
