True.. but in this situation the facts SCREAM that this is actually extremely extremely rare and there was nothing accomplished here except scaring kids for no reason and wasting time. Because the adults there obviously only know media talking points not the facts on reality

You don't have to sit idly, but do something useful instead, like implement legislation like the rest of the developed world, where these shootings don't happen.

These shootings happen in the rest of the developed world too.

Which is why they are intentionally horrifying our children with these drills.

To avoid being horrified, one must avoid all mass-media reports of school shootings, as well as the social media activity of victims, and of their families and friends. It's harder and harder to do. Most children performing these drills are already horrified.
