Matt Novak: The PBS Frontline documentary is devastating. If you're up for it emotionally, it's quite a piece of journalism.

One of the most heartbreaking details we learned from Uvadle is that the kids were being quiet because that’s what they’d been trained to do. You hear the earliest cops to arrive repeatedly telling each other there must not be kids in those classrooms because they didn’t hear any crying.

Active shooter training at work was mostly about how there’s nothing much you can do so just don’t scare any cops who might arrive by screaming or crying.

I didn’t know this detail. 💔 what a broken country

oh, I really can’t. I can’t even watch movies where bad things happen to children.

I have it saved to watch. I just can’t yet. I’ll never forget my niece and nephews running in from school one day recently and just nonchalantly mentioning they had an active shooter drill. I was appalled. My brother just shrugged. You said it right. We really are a failure as a country.

I can’t imagine what it’s doing to their young minds. Older people have always whined about kids being spoiled and soft but now whenever I hear that complaint I want to remind them that it’s routine to run drills with little children demonstrating how they could be shot at any moment.

that PBS video just reinforced my anger. To bad the parents took down their facebook video of them getting brutalized by the police while they tried to save their kids.

this video? x.com/paleofuture/...

Yes. Thank you. The parent who had that on facebook took it down. Which made me believe they probably some sort of threats.
