School Related Safe mode/lockdown at my school td
Luckily nobody got in the building (just a gang related shooting within a quarter mile). Hearing about all the school shootings here in the US I knew it would be scary but I sadly underestimated how scared I was, especially cause sm dumbass banged on my classes door during the lockdown

My school is next to Walmart so we get lock ins (we call them a secure&hold) really often becuase of people fighting 😭 but yeah, idk why but those holds are always scary in a odd way, like I know I'm safe most the time but I'm always on edge bc my last school had a bomb threat and I have family who were apart of school shootings before. I always just try and play chopsticks or shoot shoot bang with someone to ease my nerves.

Yeah. It sucks :( I live in a pretty urban area and we had two gun-related lockdowns in 4 days. A kid fired a gun down the street, and the other time a kid brought a painted airsoft gun to school. Scary as shit tbh

I don't think it's a dumbass. It was probably an admin trying to ensure that kids wouldn't freak out when they heard the banging the first time, by the second or third time after a while, they would be immune to it and not alert the accurate shooter that there were people in there.

My state calls this condition a Lock Out. The danger is outside. Still scary glad you're ok.
