Teachers at an elementary school in Indiana say the pellet guns sheriffs used during the drill led to welts and bruises, but the sheriff says the staff knew beforehand that air guns would be used and that the drill was voluntary.

Wonder if school shooting victims would have prefer pellet guns? Just saying. It was stupid idea, but stop complaining!

Horrible

That's why I don't believe in public schooling, no matter how 'safe' you try to be, it ain't gonna happen. Not with that many people. Plus kids are evil these days anyway. It's better just to keep them separate. homeschooling RIP bullying victims

We had this training at our school. It was beneficial. Yes, staff could choose to not participate. Honestly, with type of training, I felt like I really knew what it’s like to be under pressure and how hard it can be to barricade a room or try to get out.

I live in the UK so honestly, i don't get it... I understand the drill, horrid though it is to us here, becuse we do 3 fire drills a year, job done... but why practise being shot, is it thinking you won't be so terrified in the real thing? Because it bet it would be worse. .

And the sheriff is lying

Boss Hogg and Roscoe P. Coltrane live on.

And the traumatized kids?

I worry about teachers that thought any of this was a good idea.

Says something about your country's culture and society when you have gun drills exercises in a school

Sheriff deputies using pellet guns in an emergency drill in a school is ludicrous. Injuries from the pellet guns was justified because there was advance notice and participation was 'voluntary' is a lawsuit in the making.

And then they went and shot some dogs. It was a good day.

It was a stupid idea to use something that hurts bad enough to be used for crowd control before deadly force.

We live in a society

Teachers Shot 'Execution Style' With Pellets During Active Shooter Training Union leaders say teachers & some cafeteria staff were brought to a room, asked to crouch down, then shot execution style with plastic pellets from a gun resulted in welts & blood

I know....let’s take northeast Pennsylvania’s lead and train our teachers with a Bucket of Rocks.

How many sheriff's got shot with pellets? Just curious.

I am beyond words.. intelligence is lacking here..

WTF?

Oh no. Welts and bruises. They will never be the same. Hell. I grew up with welts and bruises daily from the nuns, my mom, my grandparents, my friends, my neighbors. I harbor...wait for it...ZERO hard feelings. It's called growing up and not being a pussy.

Its sad that we even have to live in a world, that has to run an active shooter drill.

The consent would need to be specific as to possible injuries and be in writing !

See all the people following you, their Human Masters Voice (HMV) Brains are waving here. They don't even know their brains were drain, Holding back Technology, to dumb down the masses. It works click link

GovHolcomb What do you have to say for yourself Governor? This is on you.

Weren’t they asked to NOT tell the next batch of victims, I mean teachers, what happened? How could they know?

That was a terrible idea! When pellets injure teachers, it's a bad idea!

Imagine how the real one feels

Did they tell them it would hurt?

'Besides, said the Sheriff, the fire department actually set the school on fire during the last fire drill...at least we aren't that stupid.'

Why weren't the teachers armed and shooting back?

Boohoo, it’s just an air soft gun

ROFLOL. so they got shot with AIR SOFT which are not PELLETS. lol CNN cant even get this correct. lol Whose brilliant idea was this anyways? This would have been a much different scenario if some of the teachers also had air soft guns, unbeknownst to the shooter. Just sayin.
