should children start active shooter training drills in the USA ?

How many times a year and what would that program look like? If you are against active shooter drills but for tornado or fire drills why one and not the other?

Eleventh grade, maybe. I don't know how necessary it is to put guns into children's hands.

@Lostpoet not asking to put guns in kids hands. more like emergency response drills to an active shooter. some of the posters on here talk about barricading and some ideas revolve around the escape, hide fight model.

but it is a good point you bring up. A number of politicians want to turn gun free zones into the O.K. Corral by making it a gun battle between teachers and the active shooter with kids in the middle. Not sure if I like that idea but it is on the table in our legistlative branch.
