This Private School Trains Student “Warriors” To Swarm An Active Shooter (VICE on HBO)

[@VICENews]

In the wake of the mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida, last Wednesday, schools and state legislatures around the country are grappling with how to protect students. WATCH NEXT: Survivors of mass shootings tell VICE News what should be done about guns - bit.ly/2HBbwga

[@SwaggerOnHundred]

"The greatest country God has ever given man on Earth" In what other country you get to compete on the mass shootings world record? other countries are either everyone is not armed, or war zones where everyone is prepped and armed to the teeth. Greatness is all about the freedom to break records and top scores. Dear Big Brother (FBI, NSA, Google, or whom ever powerful enough to screw up my life), I'm not condoning violence, killing is NOT cool. Even though you creep (big brother) think it's fun and badass, I actually don't. The insensitive comment above is something called sarcasm. To use sarcasm I encode a reasonable serious message in the comment using deceptive statements usually a mix of false, stupid, and nonsense. The majority don't bother but if the reader shares enough relevant background, then they will decode the message and get mildly amused. Background are things like cognitive ability, topics of interest, cultural references, opinions, etc.. Then there are people who take the comment literally, this intervention starts a contraversial and complicated game of deception called trolling; all you need to know that it takes 2, and could start intentionally (using troll baits and counter-baits) or accidentally. There are 3 intersecting catogories of users who take dumb internet comments seriously: 1- digital immigrants: usually old or new internet users, they hear about knowledge on internet and think the internet is like a university or a library, this cute type is endangered but they have a big reservation in Facebook. 2- Idiots: they just can't understand, some are counter baiting trolls, both friendly and hostile, these are everywhere. 3- psychos (most dangerous): just unpredictable and love to take it personally and unnecessarily mix internet with reality, their main hobby is once they take it personally to do you damage by any means necessary: reporting, death threats, faking interaction, and if they have power over you(you're screwed), these are powerful and growing group that is ruining the internet on everyone. So my top comment is made to satirize the obsessed sports coverage of mass shootings: doing ranking and stats of victim count, what and how weapons used, people paying attention to this shitbag and his background story even starting his own Wikipedia page, while victims portraited as exhibit pictures (something like trophies), only remembered by their mourners. A school massacre is a school massacre, statistics and details only glorifies the shitbag and doesn't change my feelings about it. isn't that disturbing.

It seems funny and cute and all, but if she pulled a concealed weapon on a robber and said that, she would be the one who would wind up getting prosecuted. There's a book available on Amazon that explains FL gun laws very plainly. If you live here, it's a must read even if you don't carry. It's unfortunate the ways the gun laws are written here, but they really compel gun owners who don't want to go to jail to shoot to kill. Even a warning shot can get you 20 years mandatory in this state. Not so funny or cute.

They're giving students guns? Who thought of that zero intelligence idea? They're basically turning USA schools into a wild west where anybody can just shoot anybody. School shooters can't just be the only problem. Kids who behave in a rowdy way can also form groups that target others using their guns.

A gun free zone is far more of a "false sense of security" than training kids how to survive and fight in a shooter situation.

The drill attack was over so quickly. If everyone is coordinated and trained like this, then that would make for a lot less casualties. If every school prepared like this, why would a shooter want to even try? What happens if there's multiple shooters though?

[@verheughej]

It was well coordinated. But only because this situation was announced, everyone was ready and new what to do. That situation will never happen in real life, people will die. Kids mostly. But I get where they are coming from, better be prepared somehow even if won't be as effective in real life. It's a reactive solution, where are the proactive solutions that would help prevent a situation like that from happening? For example: Guards, better mental health care, better gun laws...

j v "everyone was ready and knew what to do." That's kinda the point of these drills, or any drills for that matter. if you ever practiced anything, martial arts, sports... you'll know that in the end it all becomes muscle memory. You don't analyze it, you don't get scared, you don't think "what if" like some couch potatoes with a lot of time on their hands, you act on an impulse without even thinking about it - you just act. This is their last line of defense, first is armed guards, second is armed teachers and if everything fails, they simply say "don't be lambs waiting to get slain, do something and most of you will live". Ask any of the parents of the kids who died in the recent school shooting, what they wouldn't give that their kid was in this school and trained for that kinda situation. I think we all know the answer to it.

[@genejeffries8199]

First off...self defense is not vigilantism. It is a clearly defined natural right protected under the constitution, and as such should be taught in schools. Second, "Police are the best trained shooters in America" We are so doomed. I have personally, while standing next to the officer, watched him take 5 shots from less then 10 feet (with a weapon with a Lazer sight) to put a deer out of its misery. This was not a stress situation. He was calm and unhurried, after the 2nd shot I started feeling bad about calling the cops. The idea here was to END it's suffering. I have shot with cops, I have had to teach cops to clean their service weapons, I have had to teach/explain to cops the ballistic characteristics of the caliber they carry. So I can tell you that the average cop, is just as clueless about guns and shooting as the average person on the street.

[@mach9383]

gene jeffries Completely agree. As a former active Marine, I find police officer arms training to be atrocious! I too thought they were trained. If your not SWAT or RRT (rapid response teams), then most have minimal at best training. Infantry and special force service members have a 1000x’s more training. Next to that, civilians-because they care enough to want to be knowledgeable about guns and self defense, so they actively seek training. As for the anti-gun comments in this film, they’re flat out LIARS, either willingly lying to the public or too ignorant to look up the facts and statistics that show training in weapons and self defense increases your chances of survival. Why do you think the IDPA, Two-gun and Three-gun competitions are so popular now? And, most of those are taught by prior military or law enforcement with SWAT backgrounds.

[@xNCFOREVERx]

gene jeffries the most well trained people with firearms are actually military members. I was in the army and we have more training than police. Police get training too, but military has way more training. I have friends that are police officers

[@BruceLeeroy94]

"Training kids to be vigilantes" Really? I didn't know teaching kids how to protect themselves and others was a bad thing. My PE class was the most useless class I ever took. Literally sat in a gym for an hour and half and did nothing. Sometimes we did some actual physical activities. Its a good thing that they teach the students how to fight and face adversity.

[@ViolentKisses87]

Vigilantes? I'm pretty sure they know the definition to that word.

[@BruceLeeroy94]

No. They are wrong. Protecting your life or other's lives isn't just the job of law enforcement. It is our god given right to protect ourselves if we so choose to. They would be right if protecting yourself or other's was the job of only law enforcement. But I could be wrong. Do you believe law enforcement should be the only ones to protect people by attacking immediate threats?

[@solomonaveyard7556]

Bruce Luxemburg the issue is not that they are teaching kids to protect themselves, it's that, first off, why should kids have to put them selves in more danger if a shooter does come into a school and also arming teachers increased the numbers if rounds being fired around the school if a shooter is on the premises, most walls between classrooms are dry wall and if a teacher misses that bullet is going straight through a wall into another classroom. The answer to school shootings is proper prevention not some shitty plaster that might save a couple of lives and could just as easily end up with more injured or worse

[@TheTyrial86]

Solomon Aveyard They are already forced to fight or die... Without this training. Even with "more extreme gun control measures" they would still have to fight or die.

Watch it again and look closely. They aren't training children to engage, they are training high-school level students. These students are in their mid to late teens and near the same age as many of history's mass school murderers. I think this is an excellent program of instruction and it teaches that your inaction could cost others their lives, and doesn't guarantee your own. Of course, I think they should include the Jiu Jitz' also, but no program of instruction is perfect, I guess.

[@markhoffman4903]

Mitchell so for instance, comparatively. Do you think a kid who is facing a viscous dog that is attacking should not fight back? Or if he is out hiking one day and gets jumped by a Bobcat; should not fight back? Just lay down and take it.... The training was not to teach the kids to roam the halls perusing a gun man, it was to teach them that it is better to die fighting than to die cowering. And if they worked as a team they could actually save their own lives.

[@Kingsman4101]

"And find out how unstable they are when it's too late? Or that their weapon goes off accidentally? Or discovered by a student? What could possibly go wrong?" This mindset I will never understand, do you realize how many around you on a daily basis are armed and no accidents happen? And I got news for you, in this climate and with all the copy cats I am willing to bet there are already a number of education employees who carry on the job. But in the crazy liberal mind you should just lie down and be a victim, pea your pants and hope the shooter hates the smell of pea.

Self defense yes, but armed faculty or even students? Idk about that. Owning a gun will be as common owning a cell phone, which granted is our 2nd amendment right, but as more people do it, then more demands for lower restrictions will be made to provide more "self defense" for younger people.

Team Kuuki Not true. When I was a kid, and my father, guns were common on school grounds. Kids brought them to show to each other, to go shooting after school, or for several other reasons. No shootings, no one stupid enough to use a gun to solve an argument...nothing. We need to examine the root causes of these mass shootings, since I think everyone will agree a sane mind would never do such a thing. Makes mental care and intervention seem much more important, when you decide to look at the cause, and not the tool.

October 7, 2017.] Although it has half the population of the other 22 nations combined, the U.S. had 82 percent of all gun deaths, 90 percent of all women killed with guns, 91 percent of children under 14 and 92 percent of young people between ages 15 and 24 killed with guns" Ooooh, but mass shootings would be down? Wonder why they don't try to imitate us?

[@norskypitbull270]

12:24 that was kinda proven when that brave student jumped at the shooter in the colorado shooting. It cost him his life but he saved the others in his class. Rest well

[@OmegaB3N]

I keep hearing this point that in an active situation, people will be less effective. My questions are, if someone is shooting back, will that make the shooter more panicked as well? Less accurate? Also, won't they stop focusing on shooting kids, and start focusing on the people shooting back? Did the Florida shooter have more or less training than the people at this school? I just feel like it's not a one way street, and the only advantage the shooters have is that they are consistently the only ones with guns in these no gun zones. Do we really think this lone(?) gunman can take out two people with guns? Three? Four? The odds become more in the favor of the defenders, the more defenders there are.

[@Beavereaver]

OmegaB3N when you walk into a place believing you are the only one with a gun you feel invisible but if you are surprised by someone shooting back you lose the will to fight.

[@liz5473]

This is not a game of COD. You are risking so many accidental deaths via stray bullets by incompetent people.

[@charleskarl4123]

lo z are they more likely to be shot by the "incompetent" teachers that have had many hours of training and care about their students lives or the 15 year old kid that flushed his meds a week ago and stole dads gun to bring to school with the intention of taking everyones life? Get back in your pen little lamb and wait for the wolves.

[@liz5473]

Charles Karl You cannot equate the training they plan to implement on teachers to the training that actual personnel are given

[@liz5473]

chris L Yeah okay, buddy

[@krickerd]

7:00 Actually it's better than a substitute for police since the students are actually THERE and police are not. It really could be the difference between life and death.

[@TeamKuukiFoodGames]

There should be private security I think, not armed faculty. Let the teacher educate them on the things they learned in school --effectively teach so that even they can become kids who help prevent a peer from going insane, or growing up to become mad.

[@Raging-Lion]

chidoriookami private security in every classroom is not cost effective.

[@TeamKuukiFoodGames]

But at least they can concentrate on their job =/ if anything a private security force is what should be going through these school-themed trainings so that they won't lose nerve when the real violence happens

No shit 7:30 but the point is why be a casualty when you can possibly prevent yourself and others from being killed.

[@gg12345ification]

I love this, even if almost all these students wont even use there training when the live situation occurs, maybe just 1-2 kids apply what they have learned and disarms the shooter buying people time to rush him and they can save countless lives.

[@domino52o26]

Not to mention taking their practice and experience into the world with them when they graduate. They're all a thousand times more ready, and will be a thousand times more safer if and when something does happen.

Did anyone catch the principal lady accidentally pointing the gun at reporter guy at 11:36? For a school that preaches about safety?? That's a big no no, pointing a gun at someone.

There’s a saying in the photography hobby. “The best camera is the one you have with you.” You can have the best money can buy or the camera on a flip phone from 8 years ago. Either way your still taking a photo, and at the end of the day wouldn’t you like to say you did more then sit idly by.

[@InayetHadi]

I can't believe the teachers union rep is such a person who is not not living in reality. Almost all the time the police are never there at that time the crime is committed they are there after people have been murdered, burglarized, and then they show up afterwards. And even then when they show up they don't usually catch the perpetrator of the crime. The best thing to do is to train the potential victims how not to become victims in the first place. And what this superintendent and the principal are doing to train their kids is the best thing and any school that is not doing what he is doing are sending those kids to their deaths.

[@darrenp428]

Live by the sword, die by the sword. The country reaps what it has sowed.

[@chownful]

Yes - this country was largely stolen through violence and it continues to be violent, so why the hell would they want to ban guns from law abiding citizens trying to protect themselves?

[@therealtomlapp]

This is all part of what they have been doing by brainwashing us as well as children for a long time. They are programming people to be victims, unarmed, unwilling to fight back. That is why they started that stupid no tolerance policy in schools. I once went to a school when I was a kid and they started a policy that if you got attacked by another student, even if you didn't defend yourself, both you and the attacker were both in trouble for fighting. The idea was that they are teaching kids that self defense is wrong. You are right and I have had so many cops tell me the same thing, they just can't get there fast enough. I don't care if those cops drive 120mph, they are not going to get there in time to save enough lives. Even if you have a school resource officer, he could be at the other end of the school. The reality is, children must be prepared for the world and this is one of the realities they must be prepared for. Just like we protect our children by teaching them to not talk to strangers, or look both ways when crossing the street.

[@lollipopxxx9296]

[@TakeAsNeeded4Pain]

Vigilantes take the law into their own hands & actively seek out criminals to punish. These children are learning how to protect themselves when they are threatened. Which is not only legal, but an inherent right that we all have. If it weren't a Christian school and staffed with liberals then Vice probably would've been calling them heroes. Why on Earth someone would have a problem with training students so that they know how to react to a shooter in their school is beyond me. It's amazing how people like this will use these school shootings to further their own agenda. They talk about how shootings are becoming more frequent and know something must be done, but they take issue with this school drilling it's students for this scenario & giving them knowledge that could save their lives if it ever happens at their school. It's a great idea, but Vice doesn't approve so they try to paint all these law abiding people, that are only trying to protect these kids, as 1 step away from a criminal by calling them vigilantes. Why would people like Randi Weingarten oppose teaching children what to expect & how they might survive if they're in a school shooting? Not try to prepare them at all? She even said that schools are very safe & it's a really rare occurence too. She said "by & large we don't have intruders walking into schools." Thomas Morton just gave the statistic that the odds of being in a school shooting are about the same as being struck by lightning. So that solves the gun control debate. Violent shootings at school are not much of a problem. I mean, don't those points kind of take the wind outta gun grabbers' sails?

[@Spingus33]

[@therealtomlapp]

Yeah tell me about it. All of a sudden everyone in the comment thread is a highly trained combat expert. Most people here learned about gun violence by watching the Die Hard movies. All you can do is let the gun control nuts believe their nonsense. When some nutcase breaks into their house ask them this "the intruder is 15 seconds from your child's room, telephone or a gun, pick your weapon wisely".

America has been FLOODED with leaned helplessness so much, people are proud to express it. Drives me nuts.

[@filmandfirearms]

Even the best cops, in the best conditions, will take minutes to reach the school and assess the situation. Until that happens, anyone inside the school is at the mercy of the shooter, unless they can successfully fight back, however that may be. If it were my school that got shot up, even though students aren't allowed to carry, that bastard would be running for his life, chased by 9mm bullets

[@kingbibihabibi]

2:12 is so unbearably stupid. Of course they disarm him quickly -- they know he's coming, they're already in position, and they know the gun isn't real. I'd like to see them pull that off with no advance warning and an actual shooter mowing them down as they try to tackle him.

[@kevinodom2918]

I love hearing people who have no clue confidently calling someone else stupid. Shooter walks around entire school looking in class rooms, closets searching everywhere until they're stopped. These kids can use this type training in the real world when graduate & theyll know gun safety so they wont blow their damn heads off being an idiot. A school shooter wants to do as much damage as possible so they can go down in the history books. This school will be crossed off the list. Maybe worried about who has guns in school? million cops on the streets every day & a lot of them are new & let's just say they're training isnt exactly on the level of the navy seals.

In the end we are responsible for teaching ourselves and our children to fight for there own lives when the moment comes. Even police can and do want you to fight back, at least until they can come help. More police are expensive and not practical for self defense. We should remember our 2nd amendment rights as law abiding citizens and regain our right to carry responsibly, like a licensed driver, licensed to carry. No need to pay more police. We want our right back and our responsibility with it.

Only thing I disagreed with was "don't shoot to kill". ALWAYS shoot to kill, otherwise you probably shouldn't be shooting at all.

[@thejohn6614]

wolverine96 i didn't understand that because then he said '2 in the body 1 in the head head' which is shooting to kill. I think maybe he has to say that for legal reasons. The law says you shoot to stop the threat and can't shoot anymore. Any gun teacher/class will say shoot to kill.
