#1 Learning experience?

"So children, besides being scared out of your frickin' minds by your seriously deranged teachers, what have we learned today?"

#3 Concealed carry for 10 year olds would nip this crap in the bud.

#4 This simulation might have been useful if perpetrated on the teachers, not 10-11 year olds. Many these cheese brains would begin to understand the merits of being armed and prepared. One teacher who can shoot straight and remain cool under the tension can eliminate a lot of pain and suffering for the kids. Normally just takes one or two well placed shots.

#5 The teacher was prepping the kids to be future anti-gun lobbyists and Democrats. What a Asshat!

Will the school be covering the cost of the psychiatric help these kids will probably need for the next 5 years?

It sounds like the parents were not likely told in advanced. I'm sure they would have put a stop to this.

I smell lawsuit.

#6 I like the idea of the teachers having more in depth drills.
While I agree with most here that it was wrong to have a drill that the kids thought was real, I think it would be a good idea for the kids to have mock drills, but ones that they know are mock. We have fire drills, it would be good to have these drills for the kids to keep ever vigilant. To know how to best respond as far as what a lock down means for a school etc.
