CHICAGOLAND: School Shooting Drill To Include Blanks Fired In Hallway To Familiarize Students With Sound Of Gunfire!

CHICAGO (CBS) — A school shooting drill planned for tomorrow in the far northwestern suburbs has many parents upset.

According to a letter from Cary-Grove High School principal Jay Sargeant, there will be a code red drill at the school on Wednesday.

It will include somebody shooting blanks from a gun in the hallway “in an effort to provide our teachers and students some familiarity with the sound of gunfire.”

CBS 2’s Derrick Blakley reports, during the drill, teachers will keep students in their rooms, lock their doors, and draw their curtains. Police will sweep the building, while someone will fire two shots – blanks – from a starter pistol.

Cary Police Chief Steven Casstevens said, “From the school’s request, they want to let the students know what the sound of gunshot might be, should that occur in their school.”

But any gunfire at a school – even blanks – had some parents and students shaking their heads.

Parent Kassy Pinter said, “It’s probably necessary to have the ‘code red’ drill, but not really necessary to shoot the blanks in the hallway.”

Parent Sharon Miller said the way Cary Grove has planned the code red drill is absurd and also thinks it’s not necessary to shoot blanks in the hallway.

“If you need to run a drill, you run a drill,” she told WBBM Newsradio’s Bernie Tafoya. “They run fire drills all the time, but they don’t run up and down the hallway with a flamethrower.”

Parents were also concerned about some students getting too upset during the exercise.

Pinter and Miller both also pointed out that not all guns sound alike, ranging from a light popping sound to a loud bang.

The parents were also concerned about the notification letter from the school. Pinter said she did not receive it in her email. Miller said she’s the only one of the parents she knows who has received it.

Some in the school community endorse the idea.

Substitute teacher Debbie Gummerson said, “Let’s put the kids through some training, and maybe we could save some lives that way, should something ever happen.”

Parent Dina Coutre said, “Nowadays it’s better to be safe than sorry.”

This violent exercise/demonstration is intrusive to the point of invasive by the foreign based American Bar Association, which controls Illinois government and which is only, after all, the American branch of the commercial English Lawyer's Guild, which answers to The City of London and its violence mandated authority. Look it up.

When you consider the actors and authentic field dressed Israeli soldiers in play in the middle of the feigned and actual blood letting at Sandy Hook in Connecticut, ex-Mossad leader, Raum Emmanuel(mayor of Chicago) must feel right at home waging wet dream psychological warfare against the children and parents of Chicago, Illinois citizens. This points to the reasoning behind Bush43 and Obama having American National Guard troops all over the planet, running America in debt to the central bank and getting shot up, instead of jacking up and arresting his ex-boyfriend, Raum Emmanuel, the mayor of Chicago, for terrorizing Chicago citizens for Zionist gain. The attacks of 9-11-2001 were not Muslim or Arab or Iraqi. That's Zionism, as in the Rothschild's Zionism. Israel is the 'Jonestown mercenary farm' with the Mossad, formed in 1890 in England by the Rothschild bank, being their best psychopathic killers. Britannia still exhales a wind most foul. Homework time. See Project Camelot for video footage of boxed in aid cars and Israeli soldiers running about Sandy Hook school as the local police chase a fleeing gunman holding an automatic rifle. This fleeing gunman, video recorded being captured, turned out to be an off duty SWAT team trained police officer from a neighboring precinct. The rifle found in a car trunk at Sandy Hook proved to be a shotgun, making the fleeing SWAT team member the only on site dead or alive or fleeing suspect of at least three who was carrying a rifle. Raum E. should be in a military jail by night fall, but NSA general and satanist Michael Aquino is/was in charge of all American military psychological warfare, and no pussy assed bitch would want to rile him now, would they.
