        meanwhile these fucking worms have the audacity to play the “save the children!” card, often in the very next breath

    Genuine question 🙋‍♂️, did any of yall Non-Americans ever have to do School Shooting/Intruder drills? I always sorta assumed it was normal, is it weird? Also to play devil’s advocate, I think it’s a good idea to have a plan for if it happens but how often were your drills? Ours were like 2-3 times in a schoolyear

      Not even in PR, a satellite of the empire which by all practical accounts consumes the same ideological brainrot the US produces, does this shit happen.

      *Edit: To echo some other replies, we had fire and earthquake drills, and also for tsunamis.

      French too. Fire drills were the only thing we got. I learned about US shooting drills in my adult life and always found the concepts highly disturbing

      Russian here. We didn’t even get terrorism drills, despite Beslan happening before our eyes. Then again, we didn’t get school shootings until 2010’s, at least not that I’ve heard.

      We had fire drills from time to time, which were always announced in advance and consisted of basically just going outside when the alarm rings, and standing there awkwardly for a few minutes

      Good lord, no. That is not only awfully weird but terrible as well, and even more having to do that three times per schoolyear.

      What we had instead was fire drills, and we had one per schoolyear, but I think you Americans are familiar with those too.
