Not an urban legend. We had these drills monthly, just as we had fire and tornado drills. I can remember sitting under my desk waiting for the all clear.

I believe that hostage drills, along with professional vetting of all workers associated with school districts is essential. The payoff of this preparedness could be immense!

I am taking lessons from a an instructor who has degrees in many arts and has sort of combined the best of each into a style that promotes concepts rather than "moves."

Most of the guys in the class are cops or military. The other instructor is a Marine Major who teaches Close Quarters Combat emphasizing strikes with elbows, palms, and fingers to the throat, eyes and neck. The theory is premised on what was taught to WWII soldiers going against the Japs.

The kicks are used mostly at or below the waist.

Like anything , it requires a lot of work.

Thanks for the reply.

Haven't read anything like that since the Japs in WW2 throwing babies in the air and catching them on bayonets.

Time to arm school personnel--busdrivers, principals, and selected teachers.

The local sheriff? You've got to be kidding. Remember Columbine, where the local sheriff and his gang sat outside eating donuts while a teacher bled to death inside?

Very good. You need to learn the the concepts behind the "kata". That is the only way you will excel. I only used the term "moves" because that is what most people can relate to.

Good to hear Texas is on the ball.

Definitely NOT an urban legend. I was a teacher during those years, and we had frequent drills, just as described.

If they do this, there will be hundreds of mosques across America burned to the ground, and worse.

They might think differently if it was THEIR children being held hostage, but frankly, you never know with those folks.

You assume that the "code Pink" loonies and other leftists generally have time to have kids between demonstrations. There is nothing more likely to turn somebody Right than having a wife and kids to support

Did you actually experience such drills, personally? I went from first grade through high school during this period and never even heard of any drills remotely like that.

I remember the drills when I went to grammar school in New York City in the early 60's. I think it depended on where you were. If the school was not in a major city or close to a military facility, there was no point in it.

We need to prepare. Just in case. Maybe it would be a deterrent

What about your school bus driver? Bus full of kids never makes it to school that day.
