Because I did. Not that tornados ever hit North Carolina. It was incredibly likely in the wake or near-misses of larger hurricanes, as they screw up local weather fronts and create "posssible dangers".

Fire drills, air raid drills, flash flood drills, tornado, blizzards?? Anyone here grow up with nuclear fallout drills or whatever they're called? I want to know if "duck and cover" was still around and if I could mention in to the <40 crowd.

ASLO!!! What about post-9/11 drills? BioChem drills, or something approximately within reason of being a new-age danger school kids should be made aware of.

Sub-topic: Sex Ed.

the only other interesting ones i can remember is in elementary school, having "armed intruder drills" where we all hide near the closet of the classroom or something, staying away from the doors where some gunman might see us and shoot us. I'm not sure what influenced those, was that some big deal back in 1994?

Wouldn't it have been easier to just arm (and train) the teacher's to carry firearms? Non-lethal rubber bullets or tazers. Fuck, you'd be damn sure they get better/higher pay.

Also! The Second Amendment rocks. Not all schools are large inner-city places that can afford metal detectors and a full compliment of security guards. Fuck that. Pay $200 at wal-mart and arm a grade school teacher. I can't see any possible way this plan backfires. What if a kid is shot? Fuck them. They probably deserved it, mouthing off to an adult with a loaded firearm.

Teach them that guns = power. More gun-owners down the line. Shit, why isn't this already in place, Texas??
