This School Has Been Arming Classrooms With 5-Gallon Buckets Of Rocks In The Event Of A School Shooting

buzzfeed:

The superintendent of a Pennsylvania school district has taken a unique approach to keep his students safe in the event of a school shooting. He’s equipped his classrooms with 5-gallon buckets of river rocks for students to throw at an armed intruder.

David Helsel, superintendent of the Blue Mountain School District in Schuylkill County, made the announcement at a state House Education Committee hearing on school safety March 15.

“If an armed intruder attempts to gain entrance to any of our classrooms, they will face a classroom full of students armed with rocks. And they will be stoned,” Helsel said.

“We have some people who have some pretty good arms. They can chuck some rocks pretty fast,” he added.

His idea to literally stone an armed shooter is not in direct response to the Parkland shooting. Helsel told BuzzFeed News his schools have had buckets of stones ready to use in their classrooms for two years now.

TWO YEARS?
