Sixth graders were initially terrified to learn that a masked gunman was on the prowl inside their North Carolina middle school.
But once they learned the gunman was a school employee unwittingly putting them through an emergency preparedness exercise, their minds were set at ease — and their parents became the terrified ones.
The Eastern Wayne Middle School employee donned a ski mask and toy gun, and pretended to be a robber. The school described the incident as “an enrichment lesson on exhibiting good citizenship and observing your surroundings.”
“Even though play-acting caused some initial concerns, once the skit was completed, the teachers quickly explained who the person was and that the theft was not real,” wrote the school’s principal, Catherine Fulcher, in a letter to parents.
Still, many parents called to voice their complaints that their children would purposely be led to believe that they were in danger.
The school eventually backpedaled, admitting that while the intention behind the exercise was good, its execution was not.
“The exercise in its original intent was appropriate, but in how it was executed it obviously lacked judgment,” said Ken Derksen, a spokesperson for the school district, in a statement to ABC News.
Fulcher did not respond to a request for comment.
You know- this reminds me a lot of another recent incident...
SWAT Team Has Real Life Terror Drill On School Bus Filled With Terrified Children (Video) -
(August 19th, 2013)
ROSSFORD, Ohio - A training exercise this past Wednesday morning left students literally hanging on to the edge of their seats.
In the scenario: A school bus is en route to an event when suddenly it’s hijacked! A camera inside the bus captured the whole thing while an audience of school teachers, administrators and transportation directors watched it all unfold on a live feed.
The hijacker even tied some of the students up and told them to keep their heads down. The bus eventually ended up at Owens Center for Emergency Preparedness. That’s where first responders and SWAT teams were ready to move in.
“Every driver, administrator will take something away from this saying that this could actually happen on my bus. That’s what our focus was. This could happen on any bus” says Jeff Culler, Rossford Schools Transportation Director
Organizers say planning for the drill began in May.

This Sandy Hook child goes as far as to say "We were having a drill":

(I'm sure he was just confused though.. kids these days).
All it takes is just one of these many "faked masked gunman drills" to be portrayed as reality by our media and the government gets what they've wanted all along- We the people to lose our gun rights.. and a disarmed American public.
