I can't fucking imagine what this shit must be like for the actual kids, I've heard americans my age talk about having to do these drills and it always seemed like something out of the beginning of a heavy-handed dystopia novel. Hell, my school barely even had fire drills. I wonder if there have been any studies done about these; you'd assume there must be some sort of long term physiological effect, right?
As much as I do agree with the whole "under no pretext"/stopping the state monopoly on violence idea, I guess I'm still a bit of a lib in that I can't help but be pretty fucking hyped to live somewhere where this would be unthinkable.
I was in high school when they introduced them so we all rolled our eyes at it for various reasons, some better than others. Dunno the effect on normalizing it for younger kids.
