[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some of ya’ll really live in a bubble.  Were there some choices made at Magruder that maybe weren’t the best and lessons learned? Yes.  But it’s clear that many of y’all have not reviewed any actual shooting data, what happens during mass shootings, why some of the practices that exist have been developed, or understand why decisions made in the moment happen.

You know what’s traumatizing:  Being in lockdown while hearing bullets nearby. Stepping out into utter chaos outside. Walking through the blood and bodies of your classmates and staff.  Seeing the face of the mother who is realizing she won’t get her kid back.  And if you can imagine how devastating  any of the above would feel, note that you would still be nine degrees away from the true trauma. [/quote]

This wasn't a mass shooting.  It was community violence. Something that doesn't start or stop at school doors. It's a completely different situation, with kids threatening and harming each other on school grounds and off.

And yes, it was traumatizing for those of us involved. [/quote]
