But the high quality of American education more than makes up for it
That’s right, US kids are way better educated on how to deal with a random shooting than kids in China. Not even close.
“It’s our Old West frontier heritage, you commies wouldn’t understand” – distallation of actual arguments I’ve heard from US conservatives
sounds about right
I’m curious how effective those bullet blankets are. They seem to small to fully protect the child.
It seems like a “joke” (a sick one, but one not meant to be taken 100% literally) image. There is absolutely no way anyone would truly think that is useful. Even if it was super thick and effective, it doesn’t even cover a whole child. It can also just be kicked aside. There’s no way this isn’t meant as an exaggerated image just meant to bring attention to a real situation.
The idea would probably be to protect them from the shooter shooting through walls/ricochet bullets
believe it or not, these are the actual blankets https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/tasneemnashrulla/a-company-has-designed-a-bulletproof-blanket-to-protect-kids

Very common in American schools. Starting from Kindergarten kids learn to blockade the door with desks, hide in a corner of the room which can’t be seen from the window, and take scissors as self-defense tools.
Honestly they only started when I was in middle school in the early 2010’s for me
