😂 I’m in band and I can guarantee that the band room is the most safest place. Honestly we have so much thing to barricade the door and we have so many places to hide In. We have REALLY BIG drums we can literally hide in. We have VERY BIG CASES that we can also hide in. And we have 100 cabinets. We also have SO MANY SHELVES. Tbh...we’re finna be safe in band
were just taught to turn off the lights hide in the corner and pray to the flying spaghetti monster that the shooter doesnt shoot of the doorknob and walk in
It’s the truth. Bullying turns good kids into monsters. Years of psychological and emotional torture from your peers can affect anyone to the point they could feel they have no way out and would feel the need to do something horrific for revenge. What we really need to stop school shootings is more support and caring for potential victims of bullying and those having difficulties in their home lives so we can prevent them from having a desire to commit these acts in the first place.
@@Cyb3rSynaps3 yeah,actually I'm an example for that since I got bullied everyday,the only thing I learned from bullying is stealing,using anger to numb and empower you to crush the bones and punching of your bullies. My mentality also got damage with multiple disorders that I suffered and my mind became obsessed in learning on survival of the fittest,poison making,weaponry etc. Bullying can effect others specially those that have disturbing mindset that bullies might as well create someone who would become a murderer or a dangerous individual pyschopath if they messed up a wrong person.
Everytime a lock down drill happens theirs that one kid that starts screaming like it’s fake, I literally have to tell them to be quite so we don’t get caught
@@MrSimplified so what happens when that low chance starts increasing? The shooters start getting bolder and now everytime there's a shooting within a 15 mile radius it triggers 5 more? Maybe my luck is bad, but there's smth wrong if I deal with news 2 shootings in a day (both less than 15 miles away from me)
This idea is hardly better than hiding. Walking out single file? That's absolutely idiotic, it'd be a turkey shoot. Run for cover and be as chaotic as possible. Jump out the windows. Of course a shooter would wait at the fire exit, you can't just stroll there like a fire drill.
@@mistymystic1380 Well, if that wont work then imma just run home, with my class and just run around to start chaos with the others to make the shooter confused to where to shoot first. Better plan, eh? But yeah, my school has so many ways to leave so maybe we can take another way?
We did a lockdown training, this time the principal announced that there is a school lockdown, I thought it was real, I cried a little in the bathroom cubicle silently, but I manned up, the cubicle I go every time I go to the bathroom always has a metal pipe, but there was none :( our school is big, and all the halls were very dark, I slowly walked as I heard footsteps, I climbed in a locker and closed it silently, I watched 2 people walking with a airsoft gun I quickly went to the nearest exit door but all of them were locked obviously, I did not know what to do I observed every hall silently, luckily there were no more than 2 fake school shooters, one went into a class which did not have desks barricaded the other one went the opposite direction, the one in the class taught the students about how to counter shooter attacks, I thought that class was done for so I followed the other fake shooter, I tackled him so he was screaming, this bought attention to everyone and the lights went on as I just sat on the shooter covering his face with my jacket, And then I was like “is this a fake shooting” but I already realized, the principal thanked me because I countered the fake attacker, unfortunately I did not get anything because of my bravery ;(
We used to have training all the time, “The Sitting Duck,” approach was used all the time when I was younger. My elementary school was in a bad neighborhood and I remember more about hiding in closets than I do about any math lesson. On my first day of sixth grade, last year, there was a shooter in the district and we were all rushing to remember our ALICE training that’s been newly introduced to us. On the Walk Out day last year, we were forced to have a silent protest in the commons, me holding up my friend who was on crutches at the time for an accident in track. It was so quiet. I’ve never seen kids my age so solemn. It felt somber. This year, I was in Spanish class doing a worksheet. An active shooter drill was supposed to be that day (none of us knew, of course) and the principal came onto the intercom telling us to lock our doors and be silent immediately. She sounded suspiciously afraid and panicked, and even my teacher didn’t know there was a drill. It was terrifying. There were even kids screaming in another class, and we all knew that if it wasn’t a drill, and there really was a shooter, those kids would be heard right away. It wasn’t even real and I was scared to death. I don’t feel safe in school, really. I live in Wyoming- I grew up with guns. Guns don’t bother me. You can kill a person with almost anything. No, it’s those who decide to come into a place of education and massacre children that makes me afraid to be at school.
And thats why im a silent kid who always makes sure to stay on everyones good or neutral side, incase of a situation like this, i am still bullied though and i don't think its right to take other kids lives even though the mess you cause there in secure and will likely take there own lives in the future
there was a school shooting at my school when i was in 2nd grade. My class was in a corner, but the only thing i was really worried about is the fact that my best friend kate wasnt anywhere near my class. She had gone to the restroom when the shooter started the school shooting. I was terrified. The shooter banged on my class room door, and my stupid teacher wasnt prepared and didnt even lock the door. The door opened and everyone started screaming, besides me. He shot 3 of my classmates, killing 2 of them. The cops came in time to seize him. (The total injured/killed kids at my school were 38. 22 killed, 13 injured terribly, and 3 requiring surgery.) The cops escorted our class out of the classroom, I was still looking for my bestfriend. We walked past the girl's restroom, and i saw kate. Dead on the floor. My body froze, and i burst into tears. My teacher was right infront of me and ran to support me. When my mom came to school, she hugged me so tight. She asked if i was okay, and i didnt respond. I didnt talk for 12 days because of that traumatizing, terrifying day. RIP Kate, i love you. school shootings are real, it could happen at any time, any day, anywhere.
God im sorry for you, i live in italy where it does not happen, but i know it must have been terrible to see your best friend dead, i dont even know if i would cry or laugh in pure madness and broken mind if i saw my best friend dead
In a school (or office) shooting: If everyone in the class tackles him at the same time, and the teacher snatches his gun, while several other students hit him with metal bats, stomp on him, chances of survival are pretty high. Strength in numbers. Might get messy, and some could get hurt, but it’s definitely better than other alternatives. Of course this means everyone has to be in-position before he gunman enters the door. For extra safety, have a large padlocked storage at the back of class, so the teacher can immediately throw the gun in and lock the box, while the students continue to attack. It’s good to have a few students pinning down all his limbs so he can’t draw other weapons. New Life Baptist Academy in New Mexico uses their PE lessons to have all their students trained for this! This defence strategy/counter-attack is so random and unpredictable that the gunman won’t be able to prepare for it in advance. There’s a video on RUclips.
I agree, but even if you are many and you could take him down even if he has a gun, irl Im sure many would panic and wouldnt think to even attack the gunman because of fear
This breaks my heart that schools have had to train & practice what to do in an "active shooter" situation. I cannot fathom what it is like for these kids to have "active shooter" drills multiple times throughout the school year. When I was in elementary school in the 80's the Cold War was still going on & we had to do "Air-Raid" drills, "Duck and Cover" drills, "Nuclear Strike" drills, whatever you want to call them, we had to get under our desks with our hands over our heads, but we weren't hearing about other schools having nuclear bombs dropped on them the way kids now know when school shootings are happening all around them. It has become their normal & that should upset any & all of us that this is where we are as a country. My older daughter is 23 years old (today actually) & they had "Active Shooter" drills, but not as often or as intense as what my 11 year old daughter has to do during those drills.
in a lockdown drill, my school had to turn off the lights, hide in the farthest corner from doors and windows, and hide waiting. if the threat came in, we would run away through the window or another door (two doors in each classroom). if the doors or windows didnt work, there is a hammer in a red backpack in each classroom, and we could use it to break the windows and doors. if we couldn't run or hide, we were allowed to use anything to fight. edit; also, the the teachers would lock the doors, and cover the windows. the staff would come around the school, and shake each door knob to check that they were locked.
I'm so grateful my school allows us three options We can hide, attack, or flee Meaning we are allowed to leave the school and just run away as soon as we hear something This makes me happy because just sitting still in a corner is basically just waiting to die I wish more schools allowed and/or encouraged it
Shooting with pistols is difficult, ive used pistols and obscuring their view makes it even harder for them to aim an already difficult to use gun. By pistols i meant handguns in general, not just pistols
In college one of my professors gave bonus points on the first week of class for bringing in a can of food. The idea was that in the event of a shooting we'd all have plenty of solid projectiles to throw. He kept them on a shelf at the back of the class and then donated them to a food pantry at the end of each term.
I remember our school had a surprise active shooter drill while everyone was on the middle of the hallway.... Emphasis on surprise. When I tell you I booked it into the classroom, blocked the door, and started assigning weapons to the other people in the room I did. I’m not sure whether they respected or feared me in that moment.
i rember when it was a fire drill and my teacher wouldnt let us leave the buliding untill we got in a singel file and stopped wineing and making noises, the thing though....it wasnt a drill,the cafetera was on fire, no one was hurt though all the cafetreia ladies were out taking lunch count and i guess they left the oven or something on. anyway the teacher was ut on probation becaue she risked our lives and she was told that she should have taken us outside even if we were doing the hokey pokey. i got this information from her daughter she was my bff at the time.
Last time there was a school shooting in my school a kid was in the restroom and came back to class and the shooter pointed the gun to him so my teacher grab the gun and threw away from the shooter and told me to hold the gun
Flipping Honesty And did you hold it? If you did, you should’ve got the gun away from the shooter so that she/he won’t get it. Cover it, or just throw it away. Don’t hold it, or else the police would get confused and would shoot and arrest you instead of the shooter. At least they didn’t arrest or shoot you.
What I learn from other videos like these... *Barricade the door. Move quickly and quietly* *sees students make noise as if they were waking up the building next door*
A shooter will get caught off guard if you do something/say something unexpected. Say something they would totally not expect in worst case scenario. This might be a silly idea but what if you say “I love you so much” to the shooter if u end up with a gun pointed at you? Or what if you start singing?
Most schools just teach to turn off the lights and hide in a corner, but if the shooter is a student they’ll know where everyone hides. Which is why I think there should be certain areas not known to students where the staff can hide them if there’s a shooting.
I hate how my elementary school doesn't have any school shooting drills. When I was at book club at my school, we went into lock down because a student when threatened by 3 men with guns. It was very scary. But barely any students knew what to do because we never had school shooting drills/training. And to this day, we still don't.
*ALICE* A - alert (realize there is a threat) L - Lockdown (barricade yourself as best you can) I - Inform (tell others of the threat and provide as much info as you can) C - counter (fighting them directly is not the best way to do this. try and get the shooter off their aim, like throwing stuff at them. the shooter is not always expecting you to attack back, so this is important. if possible, getting a lot of people to go dead weight on them is a good option, but try to disorient them first) E - evacuate (when it is safe, try and leave the area) also note, if you do manage to take down the shooter, *throw the gun in the trash can.* when the authorities arrive, it let's them know the danger has been stopped.
I live in Germany and well we were never thought anything. There was one time, when I was in first class, when our teacher said "You flip around the table and hide behind it. Everything else will be said by your teacher." I don't know, but to me it's just really said that we have to explain the kids, how to handle a shooting in a school, despite that a school should be one of the safest places ever. That is just terrible and horrifiding.
It is sad to see that mass shootings are treated like earthquakes or hurricanes, instead of going to the root of the problem and trying to solve it. Best wishes from Italy
I remember if like 4th grade some kids would try to act tough in front of the girl by saying they would be the hero and take out the shooter single handedly but now as 8th graders everyone knows that that would never happen and the best chance of survival is to all stack him at once and work as a team. If someone tries to do it by them selfs they are dead, especially if it’s a tiny 4th grader.
What I'm taught is if they are around the area just be quite and if they are in the building we baracad the door. I heard this thing that was " if your classroom is hard to get into then they are most likely to go to the next because they are trying to get in kill people and get out"
I remember participating in our school's first lockdown drill in 1999. It was the fall term after Columbine because we had all sorts of new rules that year from no duffle bags to no black jackets of any kind. Our droll instructions was to duck and hide under our desk as the teacher locked the doors, covered the windows, and turned out the lights. It was originally hide in the closet, which is where we stayed the rest of the day accidentally.
i wish my school taught this cause this is very helpful imma ask my teachers if the can find one of these videos and then after my school can try it out for practice cause this can happen anytime and i suggest a lot of you to bring belts to school Becaus you cabn lock th door bettter ike that
They teach the teachers on how to combat the symptom, but never being taught on how to combat the cause of it. Theres a survey that mention that the reasons why the shooting occur is due to the shooter wanting to get revenge to those who hurt them whether its physical or mentally. This reason alone account for 89% of shooting that occur.
My school re-did our high school this year and now we have big windows everywhere. It looks nice but all I can think about is how I'm even more scared about having a school shooting now. All of my classmates have thought the same thing and that just makes me feel so much worse because that means it's a real fear and I can't brush it off. Idk what to do. If nothing else I don't want to go to school scared every day.
My plans would be grab something sharp get a bunch of desks and tables and stuff like that and block the door grab a large object if your upstairs/Downstairs then brake the window and jump out and run!
This video is very useful because I think middle school or highs school are most likely to have to happen and since I am in middle school I should learn these things in case this happens
My school has all the doors locked but have magnetic strips so it technically doesn't latch. In an event of a shooting or lockdown kids can remove the strips and lock the door quickly without having to physically lock the door in the hall with a key.
I don’t understand who thinks that huddling in a corner, pretending that your not there is going to save me. The shorter is most likely a student and knows the tactics. Give me something that will save my life please..... sincerely, an American student scared for her life
In highschool we were taught to barricade, hide and prepare. Barricade the door, hide so he thinks the rooms empty... And if he gets in, prepare to fight. In a live drill, we were told to practice this, and we happened to be in orchestra at the time. Three guys hid on the staircase that went up to the storage room, and proceeded to drop an entire rack of metal music stands ontop of the "shooter"
Suggestion: Every classroom should have a heavy bookshelf next to the door and when someone dangerous tries to come through the door just push the shelf in front of the door
Even though it is good trying to teach them to fight back, my drill Sargent said to only us our group literally never do this. It takes less than a second to pull the trigger. He said he saw this when he was ambushed in Vietnam his buddies tried this and was killed because no matter what. Pulling the trigger is faster than attacking and don't start saying they didn't ambush the enemy in secret they did and still was shot and killed. They ran out of ammo on the m16 and 1911
Anyone else upset that instead of teaching children information and life skills that they need later in life we have this to teach what to do in case of a school shooting. Schools should be a place where kids go learn not die and be afraid. It is important that this is learned but what I am saying is that school shooting like any other shooting shouldn’t happen.
At my school they tell us to hide under a desk but if a shooter comes in the class I’m either gonna be a hero or die trying or I could just break a window a dip
If you saw the quite kid with a gun and is about to shoot Say these magic words while others are screaming: "YOU DONT NEED TO HAVE A FRIEND TO BE HAPPY" "EVERY BODY HAS BEAUTY IN THEIR OWN WAY"
there are other reasons why shootings happen kids get infatuated with shooters, like the toxic part of the TTC community they _want_ to be the shooter, they _want_ to fulfill their fantasy or they're getting abused at home and they finally have their release through a genocide they have PTSD and mistake the place for a war zone there's so many factors other than bullying
Can't even imagine such a thing when I was in high school back in the 60s. Really sad. The biggest issues back then were smoking in the bathroom or skipping a class. Now they have to teach kids how to survive a mass shooting. Our society has really disintegrated.
My school started going alive drills and they aren’t any different, we hind under tables and put one table in-front of the door, and sometimes we walk out side super slow and I always think if there was a real shooter that’s not what we would be doing
We’re just told to turn off the lights and sit in the back. At least I made a plan to try to barricade the door. And if that fails, I throw a textbook, or hide in the cupboard (I’m small enough to do so).
I'm here bc/ I had this dream. Where this guy could see shootings in his dream before it happened. He lived in every one of the shootings. There was three. The first one I was in the shooting running away. I just wanted the dream to stop. The second one was in a school in Africa or something, and he was a teacher I guess. The last one I can't quite Remember, but I do remember at the end of his dream I was in his eyes, like I could see his prospective of view. He was in his casket. Alive. And then, the dream ends! I was shook when I woke up!!
What I'm taught right now is to barricade the door and if I'm in the band room, that shooter is most likely getting a sousaphone to the face
😂 I’m in band and I can guarantee that the band room is the most safest place. Honestly we have so much thing to barricade the door and we have so many places to hide In. We have REALLY BIG drums we can literally hide in. We have VERY BIG CASES that we can also hide in. And we have 100 cabinets. We also have SO MANY SHELVES. Tbh...we’re finna be safe in band

PitfallStreams so truuuue
Yea guys let’s run around the room to “distract” the shooter like the active shooter isn’t gonna shoot anyone that moves
Right?? Like here’s a good idea: get out from cover and run around like target practice
In my school, we’re told to attack the shooter with thrown projectiles and blunt objects. We’re also encouraged to, if necessary, kill the shooter.

I cannot fathom what it is like for these kids to have "active shooter" drills multiple times throughout the school year.
When I was in elementary school in the 80's the Cold War was still going on & we had to do "Air-Raid" drills, "Duck and Cover" drills, "Nuclear Strike" drills, whatever you want to call them, we had to get under our desks with our hands over our heads, but we weren't hearing about other schools having nuclear bombs dropped on them the way kids now know when school shootings are happening all around them. It has become their normal & that should upset any & all of us that this is where we are as a country.
My older daughter is 23 years old (today actually) & they had "Active Shooter" drills, but not as often or as intense as what my 11 year old daughter has to do during those drills.
Only Americans schools.
Yeah, it shouldn't even be necessary. but unfortunately it is :/
It’s honestly sad me watching this as a 11 year old.
I'm so sorry honey.
in a lockdown drill, my school had to turn off the lights, hide in the farthest corner from doors and windows, and hide waiting. if the threat came in, we would run away through the window or another door (two doors in each classroom). if the doors or windows didnt work, there is a hammer in a red backpack in each classroom, and we could use it to break the windows and doors. if we couldn't run or hide, we were allowed to use anything to fight.
edit; also, the the teachers would lock the doors, and cover the windows. the staff would come around the school, and shake each door knob to check that they were locked.
Nice tweek pfp
This is way better than sitting in the corner of a classroom!
Throwing things at the shooter looks fun!
not if its life or death. if you or classmate use the wrong weapon, it's over. that's really scary.
ah yes book vs gun
@@trexoil7774 I would point my scissors and be like "if u come at me I would scream to hurt ur ears"
@@trexoil7774 We can also shank, bludgeon, tackle and throw stuff at them.
@@trexoil7774 throwing a chair desk or even a heavy book at someone can know them out if you do it correctly
They never taught this to us,you know why?

Lol, they didn’t even teach me about this, and I live in America.
Same thailand
@@starlightblossom666 same
We were told to sit in the middle of the classroom in the dark starring at each other and ignore the shooter lmao
we were told to stay in our flipping seats
I'm so grateful my school allows us three options
We can hide, attack, or flee
Meaning we are allowed to leave the school and just run away as soon as we hear something
This makes me happy because just sitting still in a corner is basically just waiting to die
I wish more schools allowed and/or encouraged it
I guess if they did let kids flee then the shooter might chase them and get out in the community. Basically the school is a honeypot for shooters.
"Show love to the ones you think deserve it the least because they need it the most" - Aaron Stark
"Just move around and throw stuff at the shooter" yeah guess you do that if u are suicidal
Eric or Dylan shot some kid that MAY have tried to jump them with a desk. :-(
Shooting with pistols is difficult, ive used pistols and obscuring their view makes it even harder for them to aim an already difficult to use gun. By pistols i meant handguns in general, not just pistols
i wish we were taught to fight back. we are just told to hide, like the shooter doesn’t know we are doing that. 🙄
In college one of my professors gave bonus points on the first week of class for bringing in a can of food. The idea was that in the event of a shooting we'd all have plenty of solid projectiles to throw. He kept them on a shelf at the back of the class and then donated them to a food pantry at the end of each term.
I remember our school had a surprise active shooter drill while everyone was on the middle of the hallway....
Emphasis on surprise.
When I tell you I booked it into the classroom, blocked the door, and started assigning weapons to the other people in the room I did.
I’m not sure whether they respected or feared me in that moment.
i rember when it was a fire drill and my teacher wouldnt let us leave the buliding untill we got in a singel file and stopped wineing and making noises, the thing though....it wasnt a drill,the cafetera was on fire, no one was hurt though all the cafetreia ladies were out taking lunch count and i guess they left the oven or something on. anyway the teacher was ut on probation becaue she risked our lives and she was told that she should have taken us outside even if we were doing the hokey pokey. i got this information from her daughter she was my bff at the time.
When u hide in a corner ur basically a sitting duck
I would trick the shooter by attacking the shooter with a stapler and scissors
I’m going to staple his cloths, however I’m going to that XP
Not a joke dude my school got 3 threats already
Yes that is perfect brother
that’s one badass stapler
"Who's shooting who now huh?!"
Everyone: *throws balls and bags*
Me: *literally picks up a table and yeets it to the shooter*
stolen.
i would have never imagined a 15-year-old would have to watch this in case it actually happens. what has our world become
not our would your world
Just America, actually.
Last time there was a school shooting in my school a kid was in the restroom and came back to class and the shooter pointed the gun to him so my teacher grab the gun and threw away from the shooter and told me to hold the gun
Flipping Honesty
And did you hold it? If you did, you should’ve got the gun away from the shooter so that she/he won’t get it. Cover it, or just throw it away. Don’t hold it, or else the police would get confused and would shoot and arrest you instead of the shooter. At least they didn’t arrest or shoot you.
/r/thathappened
Flipping Honesty bs
AND THEN THE WHOLE SCHOOL STARTED CLAPPING
*does a grin then you open fire on everyone and continues the shooting*
What I learn from other videos like these...
*Barricade the door. Move quickly and quietly*
*sees students make noise as if they were waking up the building next door*
STUDENTS THAT ARE IN THE FIRST OR THE SECOND STOREY SHOULD JUMP OUT OF THE WINDOWS.
Better than dead
The fact we have to get taught this is insane
Everyone should be taught self defense. Stop living in lala land.
You know what's hilarious? My school doesn't even practice this stuff. "It won't happen" some says
A shooter will get caught off guard if you do something/say something unexpected. Say something they would totally not expect in worst case scenario. This might be a silly idea but what if you say “I love you so much” to the shooter if u end up with a gun pointed at you? Or what if you start singing?
Apparently if you give personal info they’d be less likely to shoot
Most schools just teach to turn off the lights and hide in a corner, but if the shooter is a student they’ll know where everyone hides. Which is why I think there should be certain areas not known to students where the staff can hide them if there’s a shooting.
I hate how my elementary school doesn't have any school shooting drills. When I was at book club at my school, we went into lock down because a student when threatened by 3 men with guns. It was very scary. But barely any students knew what to do because we never had school shooting drills/training. And to this day, we still don't.
*ALICE*
A - alert (realize there is a threat)
L - Lockdown (barricade yourself as best you can)
I - Inform (tell others of the threat and provide as much info as you can)
C - counter (fighting them directly is not the best way to do this. try and get the shooter off their aim, like throwing stuff at them. the shooter is not always expecting you to attack back, so this is important. if possible, getting a lot of people to go dead weight on them is a good option, but try to disorient them first)
E - evacuate (when it is safe, try and leave the area)
also note, if you do manage to take down the shooter, *throw the gun in the trash can.* when the authorities arrive, it let's them know the danger has been stopped.
Shooter: Holds a gun
The quiet Kid: Holds a bigger gun
The shooter: I was not expecting that.

Jeffy The puppet Jeffy
I live in Germany and well we were never thought anything. There was one time, when I was in first class, when our teacher said "You flip around the table and hide behind it. Everything else will be said by your teacher." I don't know, but to me it's just really said that we have to explain the kids, how to handle a shooting in a school, despite that a school should be one of the safest places ever. That is just terrible and horrifiding.
It is sad to see that mass shootings are treated like earthquakes or hurricanes, instead of going to the root of the problem and trying to solve it.
Best wishes from Italy
This is why i'm so scared walking out of the classroom when there's a fire drill unplanned. I'm literally looking everywhere not facing forward.
I remember if like 4th grade some kids would try to act tough in front of the girl by saying they would be the hero and take out the shooter single handedly but now as 8th graders everyone knows that that would never happen and the best chance of survival is to all stack him at once and work as a team. If someone tries to do it by them selfs they are dead, especially if it’s a tiny 4th grader.
What I'm taught is if they are around the area just be quite and if they are in the building we baracad the door. I heard this thing that was " if your classroom is hard to get into then they are most likely to go to the next because they are trying to get in kill people and get out"

I remember participating in our school's first lockdown drill in 1999. It was the fall term after Columbine because we had all sorts of new rules that year from no duffle bags to no black jackets of any kind. Our droll instructions was to duck and hide under our desk as the teacher locked the doors, covered the windows, and turned out the lights. It was originally hide in the closet, which is where we stayed the rest of the day accidentally.
Oml my friends history teacher told us “We have all of these Artsy Fartsy stuff to throw at them so we good.” 😂
i wish my school taught this cause this is very helpful imma ask my teachers if the can find one of these videos and then after my school can try it out for practice cause this can happen anytime and i suggest a lot of you to bring belts to school Becaus you cabn lock th door bettter ike that
They teach the teachers on how to combat the symptom, but never being taught on how to combat the cause of it. Theres a survey that mention that the reasons why the shooting occur is due to the shooter wanting to get revenge to those who hurt them whether its physical or mentally. This reason alone account for 89% of shooting that occur.
My school re-did our high school this year and now we have big windows everywhere. It looks nice but all I can think about is how I'm even more scared about having a school shooting now. All of my classmates have thought the same thing and that just makes me feel so much worse because that means it's a real fear and I can't brush it off. Idk what to do. If nothing else I don't want to go to school scared every day.
My plans would be grab something sharp get a bunch of desks and tables and stuff like that and block the door grab a large object if your upstairs/Downstairs then brake the window and jump out and run!
Thinking like a shooter: I like challenges. Youve just doomed yourselves lol
This video is very useful because I think middle school or highs school are most likely to have to happen and since I am in middle school I should learn these things in case this happens
My school has all the doors locked but have magnetic strips so it technically doesn't latch. In an event of a shooting or lockdown kids can remove the strips and lock the door quickly without having to physically lock the door in the hall with a key.
During drills nobody cares and people are nice and organized
During the real things everything is chaos and everyone is on full-survival mode
I don’t understand who thinks that huddling in a corner, pretending that your not there is going to save me. The shorter is most likely a student and knows the tactics. Give me something that will save my life please..... sincerely, an American student scared for her life
In highschool we were taught to barricade, hide and prepare. Barricade the door, hide so he thinks the rooms empty... And if he gets in, prepare to fight. In a live drill, we were told to practice this, and we happened to be in orchestra at the time. Three guys hid on the staircase that went up to the storage room, and proceeded to drop an entire rack of metal music stands ontop of the "shooter"
I'm curious how often do school shootings happen in the states coz this info is rarely broadcast on the international lvl

"Kids are taught to throw things at the shooter"
Meanwhile the wall getting hit more then the person
Military Training in High school
Today I felt sick well I just want to stay home and there was a school shooting threat
if your panicking your adrenaline goes up so run up a fence and knock on nearest house door and ask them to drive u away if they don't look suspicious
Suggestion: Every classroom should have a heavy bookshelf next to the door and when someone dangerous tries to come through the door just push the shelf in front of the door
Y'all should just not go to school in the first place.
K redditor.
My friend told me about this thing if the person Infront of you gets shots pull them back onto you so it looks like it went through them and hit you
Depending on the caliber of the gun, you won’t have to pretend to be shot.
Now I know how kids are trained I'm glad school started now I just have to wait tell we go in person
In Our School Were Taught Band Class To Point The Instruments In Toward The Door And When The Shooter Comes In Blast Your Instruments😂

Thx..Helped alot tmr this kid from webb middle school is going to kill my whole school..So when i saw this video i was like BET imma do this shiz
Wait what?!?
Are you okay???
What happened!!!
or just d o n ' t g o
bro its obvious that the shooter would loose he finna get swung at
Even though it is good trying to teach them to fight back, my drill Sargent said to only us our group literally never do this. It takes less than a second to pull the trigger. He said he saw this when he was ambushed in Vietnam his buddies tried this and was killed because no matter what. Pulling the trigger is faster than attacking and don't start saying they didn't ambush the enemy in secret they did and still was shot and killed. They ran out of ammo on the m16 and 1911
Anyone else upset that instead of teaching children information and life skills that they need later in life we have this to teach what to do in case of a school shooting. Schools should be a place where kids go learn not die and be afraid. It is important that this is learned but what I am saying is that school shooting like any other shooting shouldn’t happen.
big cringe comment i made 2 years ago
that’s not funny.... school shootings are unfortunately common and the fact that you’re making fun of it sucks.
@@whenworldscollide1595 Oh god this cringey comment i made and yes after 2 years i can relise school shootings are terrifying
@@minh1b i don’t even remember it , but im glad you realized
I think they didn’t make it😂
0:58 their class was so lucky that they are right next to a door
At my school they tell us to hide under a desk but if a shooter comes in the class I’m either gonna be a hero or die trying or I could just break a window a dip
At my school we don’t take cover. We all stand and arm ourselves with whatever we have.
If you saw the quite kid with a gun and is about to shoot
Say these magic words while others are screaming:
"YOU DONT NEED TO HAVE A FRIEND TO BE HAPPY"
"EVERY BODY HAS BEAUTY IN THEIR OWN WAY"
"run around and make noise to distract the shooter"
English translation: Make a target out of yourself
I would use the desks as a sort of shield to block people from getting shot easily
That actor really was in character
My sister did the same as well I learned well thanks to this video it can help all of our lives
Guys this is all because of bullying we should stop it because it is actually not helping ur environment
Get off of RUclips kid. You're making people want to kill themselves.
there are other reasons why shootings happen
kids get infatuated with shooters, like the toxic part of the TTC community
they _want_ to be the shooter, they _want_ to fulfill their fantasy
or they're getting abused at home and they finally have their release through a genocide
they have PTSD and mistake the place for a war zone
there's so many factors other than bullying
this has nothing to do with enviroment but ok
we were taught to hide under desks and hope they don’t open the door-
School shooter: breaks in*
Me: throws math factuations*
If I’m on the second floor of the school, and if a shooter comes in the classroom u best believe I’m jumping out that window
Bullying lowers your self esteem a lot
Can't even imagine such a thing when I was in high school back in the 60s. Really sad. The biggest issues back then were smoking in the bathroom or skipping a class. Now they have to teach kids how to survive a mass shooting. Our society has really disintegrated.
Bullcrap. You were taught to take shelter for fear of nuclear bombs. Don't act like the 60s was a peaceful Era.
My school started going alive drills and they aren’t any different, we hind under tables and put one table in-front of the door, and sometimes we walk out side super slow and I always think if there was a real shooter that’s not what we would be doing
In real events: hides and not fight back
We’re just told to turn off the lights and sit in the back. At least I made a plan to try to barricade the door. And if that fails, I throw a textbook, or hide in the cupboard (I’m small enough to do so).
I'm here bc/ I had this dream. Where this guy could see shootings in his dream before it happened. He lived in every one of the shootings. There was three. The first one I was in the shooting running away. I just wanted the dream to stop. The second one was in a school in Africa or something, and he was a teacher I guess. The last one I can't quite Remember, but I do remember at the end of his dream I was in his eyes, like I could see his prospective of view. He was in his casket. Alive. And then, the dream ends! I was shook when I woke up!!
