City College Holds "Active Shooter Drill"

City College Holds "Active Shooter Drill"
For real. I was just on the phone with this guy at a city college in Chicago. He had to go because they were holding an active shooter drill. Like a fire drill but it's for what to do when there's a gunman on campus. The students go in a room and turn off the lights and lock the door so the gunman can't get to them. They wait until the police come and give them the all clear.

Okay, first you get your BS - bull shit
Then you get your MS - more shit
Then you get your PhD - piled high and deep

When I was in college all we had to deal with was papers and books and teacher's dirty looks.
The god who allows children to be raped out of respect for the free will choice of the rapist, but punishes gay men for engaging in mutually consensual sex couldn't possibly be responsible for an intelligently designed universe.

Serpentine drills, or...what? "Hide in a room from the gunman" doesn't seem like something you'd need to practice.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

This was my only active shooter drill in college.

I agree. The far right on this issue has been conned into accepting firearm violence as a social norm. The sane are their hostages.

In related news Alice Cooper has a brand new hit, "School's Out for Bullets". Number 1 on the NRA charts.

You're right. Those students hiding in rooms will be hostages. And universe help them if the gunman has a semi automatic and just blows the locks off the doors.

This is part of 45s campaign against education.

It's sad, but it makes sense in this day and age.

No it does not. It is what we are forced to do right now, but do not have to accept long term if we don't want to live like this.

Break the industry and bust it's lobby we can be as worry free from firearm violence as Australia and Scotland. It is a matter of our will to bust the greed of one industry.

Of course change is required.

Attitudes and laws desperately need to be changed.

But, until that happens, it's better to be prepared in case a shooter does appear than sit in class and hope it doesn't happen.

FUCK THEM, THEY ARE ANTI GUN NAZIS..... Just forget they are are allies and have not banned all firearm sales. 


Typical liberal, point out anything remotely sane and you destroy the fun of the Dirty Harry, John Wayne Dreamers. DON'T YOU KNOW TRUMP SUPPORTS DACA? "Dipshit's Ability to Cause Asinine behavior? Right winngers are dreamers too, they dream of a day when the rest of us are second class.

That is the bait the right is using. 

"I have no choice now" is not the same as accepting it forever.

When the Parkland shooting happened , the GOP didn't do what Scotland and Australia did. Saying there is always gap from the start of a movement to the  time to the point of implementation is one thing. Waiting for that to happen while one party throws crumbs at you is stupid.
