I've thought for a while that the generation that has spent their entire childhood doing "Rampaging gunman/gunwoman is killing your classmates" drill will have far different views on guns than previous generations.

I think you're going to be proven correct on this.

Not joking about your wife but I guess it’s more useful than the dumb fallout or tornado ones we had.

do they really need to go to that detail ??

I doubt it. Maybe he will, but this just seems like one of those things that is going to stay a hyper partisan issue for a long time. I'm pretty sure the rednecks aren't changing their views on guns because of these drills.

It's not the rednecks that are we speculate are going to have their views changed, but the children of the rednecks.

My wife is currently doing this at the high school she works at.

"Yes it's super crazy and weird. I didn't know how lifelike it would be.
There were people screaming "help" and "please no" and crying and lots of shooting.
And I haven't heard anything in a bit but still locked in office. It is way creepier than I expected."

my 5 year old nephew has an issue with claustrophobia. He's also very loud. His school told his parents that on active shooter drill day he should stay home because he's scaring all the other kids. Apparently, when they all went and hid in a closet he started screaming over and over again "we're all gonna die!".

I am pretty sure many other changes in America have happened with the stereotype of a redneck not leading the charge. However, you are likely correct that a portion of the under 20 year old generation will still have the feelings of their parents.

We had one earlier this year during my prep period (about this time) and I sat locked in my room with the appropriate cards in window and under door. I was evacuated outside and helped other teachers supervise their children till all schools were evacuated. Noticed which teachers had not made it out and was put in charge of monitoring who might be missing since I had no students of my own. No live fire or anything else this time...we did do this last year and had live fire on an institute day when it was only teachers. I just see it as another part of my job that is a result of the society we are in today...I also agree with Brick in that students who go through these will have different views than my generation has with regards to firearms.

Right, it sounds like you now agree with me, nothing is going to change on this debate.

Do you think redneck children had the same thoughts as their parents on gay marriage? That was a pretty huge cultural shift in our generation. Now, maybe the redneck kids still don't agree with it but that goes to show that they aren't very powerful.

I think they probably are pretty close to their parents with their thoughts on gay marriage.

If they aren't very powerful then why don't we just ban guns now? Why wait?

people were shooting blanks? that must have been wild
