Riiight.. that would be like calling nuclear war just violence. How about nuclear war is just finger poking buttons? Only Americans would try to say Gun Violence has nothing to do with guns lol.

Knives are banned from schools too. Better get the Knife Lobby or the National Knife Association on that.
In fact, brickbats, billy clubs, balisongs, brass knuckles, nunchucks, Chinese throwing stars, machetes, crossbows, tasers, are ALL BANNED from schools.
But guns... guns we should let in.
Goof grief, what a crappy country you live in when kids are getting pat downs in school. If this stuff happened in other countries the states would be pointing their poop stained fingers at them.
Humans are too stupid to own guns. Humans are not mentally stable enough, they have little to no control over their emotions.
Sad that this is not going to get better. So buy a gun and drink a beer, be all you can be.

Anyway you are nuts if you participate in these drills. You many find out that those 'fake' bullets are suddenly real.

Criminals will find ways to commit crimes with or without without guns... Guns are not the ONLY weapon that people use to kill people...
Taking away guns won't stop violence or even gun violence for that matter. It's that simple.

When the bad guy and the police come through, they’ll step all over you, and who will be saying they’re sorry?”
Thats like saying that more drugs and alcohol will better society.
I dont want to go anywhere where stupid people are (everywhere) knowing they carry a gun. But stupidy is popular and lacking intelligence allows you the ignorance to not understand.
The problem then is that people are too stupid, you may live among them, there is no way to tell the difference.
We have no guns here. They are illegal ( hand guns). There are no shootings here, there are no home invasions with guns here.
They’ll see “bad guys with AR-15s” shooting blanks during a simulated “passing period”—the moments when one class ends and the other begins. PVC pipes will be dropped on the floor to approximate IEDs.

Maybe it's just me, but this part bothered me. (Not the bad guy).
So, when the police do come in to help, they are going to step all over you? WTH kind of thing is that to be telling the kids?
Is that what the police do? Step on bodies of children? Sounds like we have even bigger problems than school shootings to me.
“When you get shot, you need to close your fingers and keep ‘em in,” adds Tammy Kozinski, the drama teacher. “When the bad guy and the police come through, they’ll step all over you, and who will be saying they’re sorry?”
“Nobody!” the students cry in unison.

Okay, tell me about ONE school shooting that an AR-15 or ANY kind of assault rifle that was used, or IED's for that matter
This is ALL a scare tactic, plain and simple

Jaysus Christm-ass. Basically, the State will begin a systematic shooting of American children then?

Sandy Hook involved a Bushmaster M4 assault rifle, based on the AR-15. Don't tell me you forgot about Sandy Hook already?
As far as IEDs, since you bring it up, Hawaii had a school bombing this past month involving IEDs. Not too mention, the Columbine shooters had also brought homemade bombs with them.
