This is very important if you’re ever in a situation similar this pretend that you’re dead don’t scream and @#!*%

my dad told us this if someone shoots up our school

SUPER IMPORTANT

BEST TIP

PLEASE REMEMBER THIS

not even a joke we learned this in Police Explorers and put it on your clothing as well but go quickly because you don’t know where the person is.

This is what school children in America are taught.
That is so wrong on so many fucking levels and there are still people who believe gun control in any form is a bad thing.

let me reiterate
SCHOOL CHILDREN IN A SUPPOSEDLY FIRST WORLD COUNTRY ARE TAUGHT THE SAME THINGS AS PEOPLE IN ACTIVE WAR ZONES BECAUSE THE THREAT OF BEING KILLED IN A SHOOTING IS SO HIGH.

the bit in caps here is making me rethink my stance on gun control 

shit

I’m reblogging this because as my follower count goes up, the odds of this saving a life do too.

My elementary school had drills telling us what to do in such an emergency. This is exactly what they told us. AND NOW FOR A FACT: IN CALIFORNIA YOU DO NOT HAVE TO REGISTER A SHOTGUN!

I live in America, and I was only taught to hide and be quiet. I had to learn this on Tumblr. If one more person says that technology is ruining children, they best shut the hell up because this could be saving lives

We had more lockdown drills at school than we did fire drills…

Being afraid of a thing is different than the thing actually being dangerous. 

School shootings are rare. Want to know what the most common cause of death is for teenagers? Car accidents. (Fix public transit enough that you can make more stringent requirements for drivers’ licenses and/or increase driver liability for accidents, please.)

“Look! All these people are freaking out and giving out advice for dealing with a problem!” does not mean that the problem is actually a big deal. If I start handing out flyers on how to handle superintelligent bioengineered rats, do they become a threat?

The First Rule of Outfreaking: the degree to which people get upset about something reflects the degree to which a single instance of it is spectacular, not the actual risk. Nuclear accidents, airplane crashes and school shootings are rare but get a fuckload of media attention so everyone spends ridiculous amounts of time and effort on them, while particulate pollution, car crashes and everyday bullying are far bigger problems but nobody gives a proportionate shit because they don’t make headlines. I’d be angry but I don’t have any right to expect better from mere humans.
