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 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.

It is entirely possible that the timelines for their introductions were different.

Also it is only more worrying that the problem is left unadressed since 25 years. Again nothing should be normal about school children having to learn how to hide from someone with a gun trying to kill as many of them as possible.

The US truly seems like a failed state from the outside.
