So the mystic script says.
I mean, first there's everything in Ferguson but then there was the fact that schools in Missouri stage "active shooter drills" as preparation for events.

I dunno, maybe it's just me but I'm thinking that a lot of older people in Missouri like authority figures just really loving love to see teenagers getting killed. And since they're not police I guess the headteachers are all like "fuckit let's have a pretend school shooting and call it a drill, I'll get the moulage an' get a real boner going here".

Just seems pretty hosed up yanno, maybe it's where the game Harvester was based in I dunno, seems weird!

hello :)
I thought you were being melodramatic but then I saw the first paragraph and the picture and lolled

quote:

“You’ll know when it pops off,” says Robert Bowen, the school’s campus police officer. “If you get engaged with one of the shooters, you’ll know it.”

“When you get shot, you need to close your fingers and keep ‘em in,” adds Tammy Kozinski, the drama teacher. “When the bad guy and the police come through, they’ll step all over you, and who will be saying they’re sorry?”

“Nobody!” the students cry in unison.

that quote sounds like something out of satire jesus christ

the choice of an striker shotgun as their "active shooter" weapon is weird to me as well

Yes rather than realize our competetive consumer society is alienating kids to the point they go crazy and reaching out as a community to each other and to be a more open and loving society and rooting out the societal causes and starting outreach service to give kids counceling, gently caress THAT LETS PRACTICE MURDER!!!!

This is a great way for future school shooters to learn how best to murder people.

They'll know where the other kids are hiding and how they'll behave and where first responders will come in, they'll learn the layout of the school completely,

Here's the thing- its not GUNMEN it's a kid, a child, shooting other children.

before moving on to real college i went to community college for hella cheap credits and during orientation their advice was if there's a shooter on a campus and you wind up trapped with them coming try and find a firehydrant to beat them to death with which imo is kind of good advice if you've got no other choice

Like right?!



I mean that's not the weirdest part but it really throws me off at the same time, that's the kind of weapon I get at the end level of a game or something.

Also I'm pretty sure I see at least three dudes popping boners for all this kid-simulating murder so my original theory stands proven. Do they like, stand at the sidelines or something and just watch this poo poo or do they get like tagged you're out and have to sit outside cuz GROWNUPS NEVER GOT SHOT IN SCHOOLS NO THAT WOULD RUIN THE IMMERSION

This totally sounds a good idea and having played Phoenix Wright I can tell you it definitely will also stop lawyers from suing you by giving them amnesia.

What do you think I'm gonna do? I'm gonna save the fuckin' day!
I was in high school back during the "Columbine era" and they made us do these. The teachers would cover the windows in the doors with black paper and we'd have to lay on the ground and be completely silent (as if that would trick any potential shooters from thinking anyone was in the classrooms, lol).

i remember after columbine, my high school was celebrating because our rivals had a school shooting before a sports game we played against them.

Tell your friends they don't have to be scared or hungry anymore comrades.
Instead of arming the teenagers/staff, what if we just mount mini-gun turrets all over the schools? With smart turrets, the school can defend itself. Also, a fleet of attack drones assist the turrets by way of search and destroy. These drones should cover any blind spots.
