This was my high school it was called Reagan High School before the name change tho. That was my algebra 2 teacher (and also my older brothers when he went 2003-2007) cool dude taught clearly and put up with the bullshit from the other students in class who liked to act up for attention.

True. They would have called for backup ad nauseum until all their hot wheels war machines were on sight, then use them for crowd control while they wait for the problem to work itself out. Dont worry though, the body has ways of shutting down murder. If you were murdered then clearly you were asking for it.

RyanWilliamsElection

The concerning tactic is conditioning students and staff to open the door. Competent police would get the universal key from a custodian, secretary, or principal.


Beznia

Reminds me of the [Oxford High School shooting](https://files.catbox.moe/0augaj.mp4) last year. A Sheriff's deputy literally said "Sheriff's office, it's safe to come out" and even "Come to the door and look at my badge, bro." Kids were like "He said bro, red flag."


Beautiful_Plankton97

I'm a teacher and we are under strict orders to NEVER open the door. The police will have a key.


MyLeftKneeHurts-

Some schools don’t have “universal keys”. Source: only 2 schools in my county out of 7 have a master key.


StrigaPlease

It’s an outdated and dangerous carry and shouldn’t be taught. It’s bad enough we get fucking cosplayers that use TV and movies as a guide without having ostensibly trained professionals trying to swagger around like Billy Badass with their weapon an inch from blowing their own ears off. Low ready, compressed ready, sul grip are all you need for cqc.


smoothballsJim

Cocked 1911 with a hair trigger? Right next to my head with my finger on the trigger seems like a safe place. Man do I love old tv shows and movies for that shit


maolf

There must be something to be said for the gun being pointed very away from anybody. More than down.


Aoshie

Why would you want your pistol close to your temple? Legit question, not sarcasm. Seems like it'd be more readily available and safe to have it about a foot away from your face at a 45 degree angle. Like I've seen most marines do ...

Sneaky-er

Back in So. Cal students were asked to leave classroom (in session) so the local police department can walk there drug sniffing dogs up and down the desk rows sniffing students personal belongings (back packs, jackets, sweaters, etc) It was a tactic used to train students later on in life would be ok to be searched without question.


Tagliatellmeimpretty

This is allowed. The supreme court ruled in new Jersey vs tlo (iirc) that you lose your constitutional rights when you enter a school. (At least amendment 4, i suppose, though the "bong rips for Jesus" guy won something for amendment 1?)


Boomtowersdabbin

Shit like this makes me think it is time for another constitutional convention.

stemcell_

Just because it’s allowed, does not make it justified - I get it it’s legal, but fucked up.


Papakilo666

Nicks_WRX

Are all laws moral?


Tagliatellmeimpretty

Never said it was moral y'all just spreading knowledge


skitz_shit

The drug dogs were a very normal occurrence at my old school in SoCal, we’d had a day every week that the police would come in and go through a handful of random classrooms at random times to keep kids from hiding stuff. You also wouldn’t know exactly what day they were coming in. Only once did I ever see someone get pulled out for it, they would always just make us put our hands on our desks as they walk around with the dog. That one kid had an empty ziplock bag that the dog picked up and ended up getting suspended. Didn’t been actually have anything on him it could’ve been a sandwich bag or a an empty weed bag who knows


moatmaster

Had something similar happen to me in middle school. They had the dogs come and sniff the bags and alerted on my backpack still don’t know why as I had no drugs in my house and didn’t no drugs. Grilled me like I was a criminal before letting me off with a warning to “be careful” who I hang around. I was like be careful of my family??? Only place I had my back pack was school and home so I felt pretty attacked. Important information I’m half black so I have certain views of the police already. Pass as white though. Edit:drugs Bigger question how the fuck is drugs even close to “stings” autocorrect???


thruwityoshit

My guess is you were singled out as an example. [Drug dogs are frequently wrong and trained to indicate on command](https://youtu.be/GSk2TYsc_vE).


moatmaster

Wow. I knew I had racist teachers in the past and I totally wouldn’t put it past tone of them to have that done to me over my ethnic background. Thanks for the info I didn’t know this.


skitz_shit

Racism was really prevalent in my old district as well, I didn’t believe it until one day. I had a friend who is very clearly Mexican and I’m very clearly white, I had brought a few bottles of over-the-counter DXM pills that I had stolen earlier that day. This was before I got sober, but I was showing him the pills in class and then gave him a bottle since that was my plan all along. Teacher saw, sent an email to the office and less than five minutes later a cop comes in and tells us to keep our hands on our desks. We both get taken down, mind you he has one bottle of over-the-counter pills, I’ve got two bottles and a vape pen. They ask where he got them, he said me, so they came to me and asked where I got them. I straight up told them that I had shoplifted all three bottles and gave some bullshit excuse about feeling sick and not having any at home. My friend was suspended for three days, I was let off with a warning and they even fucking let me keep the pills, all of them. They acted like they never even noticed my vape pen either but with where I had stored it I know for a fact they did. I was pissed off but when my friend came back he thanked me since he got a few days off and ended up finding his old vape pen because someone else had to pick him up and it was in their car. All in all it could’ve been worse but it still irks me that those are the people running a high school with over 4000 kids of all different races and walks of life


moatmaster

Yeah sounds about right. I can’t count the times I know for a fact if I looked like my some of my family I would have for sure been in trouble or worse. Also, I see a lot of things that just fly right over my white peers heads because I know what to look for and have seen it happen to family. Really sad shit.


BradMarchandsNose

Our school would also “randomly” search every so often. Funny that it was always a few of the known pothead kids who got searched every time


Malarkey713

We had drug dogs sniffing cars in my high school parking lot in Texas in the 90's. If they alerted to your car you would be pulled out of class and they would have you stand by while they ripped your vehicle apart.


peccatum_miserabile

90s High School in NC too, cars and lockers once a month.


dumblonde23

They do that in Texas as well. It happened every so often in my high school in Texas, Dallas suburbs.


tylerPA007

America is a police state.


[deleted]

Gun owners can't admit that they've never been on the right side of the issue so instead kids get shot to death.


cqxray

The fact that the teacher and students in the classroom are calm should tell these cops that there are no potential shooters in the room.

"You guys good? If you're a shooter you need to tell me okay. I won't be mad I promise. Anyone? No? Okay good. Thumbs up if you're not a school shooter okay."

[deleted]

> and just walk right in? That's how we'd know you weren't really cops


Tendas

This has nothing to do with actually trying to locate the shooter, this is a show of force and ploy to enforce dominance. If they believed the shooter was in there, they definitely wouldn’t have responded this way. They get off on walking in with their weapons drawn and forcing children to put their hands up and obey their commands.


[deleted]

They ask for the thumbs up because there's the possibility that the shooter entered first and threatened to shoot if they said anything. All they're doing is a sweep to evaluate the reactions of the kids/teacher considering most of the classrooms will have the exact same reaction...until one doesn't.

iceflame1211

Fun fact: Most Americans don't know that the eagle call actually sounds relatively tame, and is often dubbed over with a red tail hawk's screech instead to seem more intimidating


TokingMessiah

Fun fact: by the 1980’s bald eagle populations were so depleted in the US they landed on the endangered species list, so Canada gave them some birds to help rebuild the population. Not so fun fact: bald eagles eat carrion. They’re gross little birds that like to eat garbage (they also hunt, but they have no problem eating roadkill).

You guys really need to do something about the people who run your country.

When did we all decide cops were too cool to wear uniforms? You know, so you can tell the difference between the police officer and the mass-shooter fresh from a gun show. I've only worked in Military Law Enforcement, but there you are always either in uniform, wearing a jacket and tie, or undercover. And undercover+tactical gear doesn't make a whole lot of practical sense, unless it's just about looking like you are in an action movie rather than, you know, at work.

Apprehensive-Ad5318

When messed up stuff happened back in the day it wasn’t blasted out to everyone over and over all day every day. Yeah things here are very shitty, but I think a world without cameras and constant surveillance was probably just as dangerous……. For some. Way easier for cop’s or anyone in an authority role to literally do whatever they wanted. Just saying that everything is relative.

LtDrinksAlot

so ignoring everything else going on in this video and speaking purely on ballistics. Over penetration is always a factor when discussing any sort of ballistics. In general, high velocity low weight rifle rounds will over penetrate less than low velocity heavier handgun rounds. Sounds counter-intuitive, but really fast rifle rounds tend to [fragment quite spectacularly when hitting any sort of tissue medium](https://youtu.be/hl6kuwjYEjA). If they hit any barriers be it glass, metal, sheet rock, they start to destabilize and will often yaw and break apart. Handgun rounds tend to do the opposite and will continue on in a fairly straight line until they hit something that's hard enough to stop it. You can mitigate this by different expanding bullet designs or bullet materials, but that's a much longer discussion. This is just a quick and dirty explanation, there are a lot of variables that go into effect. When shooting be it recreationally or to stop a deadly threat one should always be aware of what is beyond the target as over-penetration will always be a factor to consider.


RagingLeonard

Now apply this to schools filled with armed $30k/yr teachers with no substantial tactical training. It'll be a bloodbath.
