That doesn't mean that the real thing couldn't happen simultaneously, regardless of beliefs of coincidence. I understand you're just being an insufferable troll because I happen to spread links from a specific website, but there is a point to this.

    If anything, the "drill" mentality seems to be conditioning people to question whether or not something is actually happening. Exactly the moral of "The Boy Who Cried Wolf". Schools have what, 12 fire drills a year minimum? And after how many do people just begin to think, "Oh, it's just a drill, another way to interrupt the day." Heck, I remember the exit procedure in one classroom where I went to school only talked about a fire drill, not mentioning anything about an emergency situation. And it's not limited to the schools, either. We had a regular fire drill at a workplace (either annually or semi-annually; I don't work there anymore), and then when there actually was a problem, people would ask if it was just a drill, and then the management would have to send out "nastygrams" because people didn't take it seriously. What do you expect when you cry wolf? Look, I can understand if you need to make sure that people know how to get to safety, and if the exits are sufficient for the number of people, but it can be taken too far.
    Practice, practice, practice so you know what to do when it's the real thing. Maybe announcing "No Drill" over the PA system will let the folks know when it's the real thing.

        You do know there are more of them than just the Second Amendment?
        I tend to find the biggest 2nd Amendment supporters would shred the 4th and 5th if given the opportunity.

          Kinda like 10th A freaks are basically just racists and Thumpers who want to impose their particular versions of Jesusharia through the states.

            Fun fact: the year I took the Arizona bar exam, the Constitutional Law question in the essay portion, which at least at that time was state specific, was a tenth amendment question. Talk about horse shiat.

            Only held that license for two years, never used it. Wife had a job lined up down there before the economy crashed, ended up never moving.

              The 10th Amendment is the core of NJ sports gambling case v the Feds.

              If you want an all powerful federal state, the 10th Amendment is an inconvenience. If you prefer the idea of a union of the several states with a federal government that governs with the consent of the governed, the the 10th Amendment is your friend.

                I believe I recently heard President Donald J. Trump offer to shred the Fourth in the name of expediency over due process. I was quite disgusted.

                  Oh, now that we're facing a fascist right wing federal government we should be slobbering all over the 10th like Roy Moore at First Communion.

                        As we've seen the 2nd absolutely matters. Or at least blowing it waay out of proportion.

                          I found it a bit ironic that he decided to use the NDAA against the people that put it into place. Now you know why I'm against Voter IDs and the wall.
