My kids school sent an email around 7 last night that there will be an intruder lockdown drill on Thursday. No prior warning. To practice Escape Evade and some other E which is their plan in an active shooter situation. They recently got Resource officers for at least the middle school and possibly elementary as well

Im keeping my kid home on Thursday for a number of reasons. One, no reason to traumatize kids with scenarios that are infinitesimally unlikely.

Reasoning thru it with my ex i came up with possible reasons why a FF might be likely:

1. Punish PA IF we had gone red (last night ruled this one out.)
2. Draw attention away from hamhanded count irregularities (still possible)
3. Be a great "first galvanizing event" for Dems to go after guns with their new PA power right after they assume control

PA has been relatively insulated from the school shooting trend i think bc of our D leanings and hard WEF lockdown tactics early on in 2020. In short, PA plays ball so they leave us alone. We also have 2nd amendment in our state constitution and a large population of hunters So its harder to run roughshod over things via legislature

But i dont trust these fuckers any farther than i could throw them and im not sure i could lift Fetterman with my weak arm after my own strokes a few years back.

Anyone else get a weird communication like that?
