Why do they make highschoolers do this retarded shit?

With young kids it makes sense, but it just looks dumb when it's 17 and 18 year olds

What the hell

For evacuating the school

Keeps them organized

I guess

But like, why the arms, why not just single file

In a hectic situation it keeps them together

Some of them are 18

Better to do it than not

I can't imagine a scenario where I would ever do something that retarded

I'm sure they're very concerned about looking their age when someone just killed 17 of their fellow classmates

It's not out of a concern for looking their age, it's just a dumb thing to do

In a life or death situation it's better to follow protocol than let them do whatever

No, it literally isn't

The last thing you want is some hysterical girl losing her shit

Normalcy is far better for them

And this is after the shooter's been detained and they're just clearing the school

They don't know the whole situation

At this point, they do

Until everyone is out of the school they have to follow protocol

They do not remove people from the building until it's been cleared

This is them clearing

Thus, it's been deescalated

shrug it's protocol man

I'm not gonna argue with the people trained to do this stuff

And I'm saying, there's no reason for high schoolers to do it

They're not forced to or anything

It's not even done outside of k-3 normally, for fire/lockdown drills

I mean sure, okay

Like idk, we're not there. We can't know why they're having people do something or not

If it's not hurting anyone, I don't see why it's dumb.

The reason you have young children do the safety Congo line is so that they don't wander off, and the teacher/leader can make a judgement about where to lead them if the needs/situation change

That is it's purpose, and it does it's purpose well, especially at a young age when kids can get overwhelmed

Maybe they have the high schoolers do it because it's traumatic for them and better safe than sorry

That's the thing though, there's neither a benefit or drawback to doing it, there is no "better safe than sorry"

It's done because the very public pictures of Newton are on every teachers minds, and they think that is what they are supposed to do

Well better to have order then if that's what they think should be done

It looks stupid, which is what I said initially, and I'm not hating on you or saying it's harmful, it is just a stupid thing to have 18 year olds do

Order is saying "single file line, follow me to our designated area"

Directions which 18 year olds can follow

Alright whatever, it's not that big a deal anyways

spooky

I saw, well done Rusp

Good morning folks
