Yesterday at active shooter training, we were told that if there was a shooting at our school, we could use our masks from the pandemic to stuff the bullet wounds of the children.

1. "Maybe Florida will allow children to wear masks now."

22. Can you even wrap your mind around something as..

totally insane as that?

[sop]

2. Perhaps now DeSantis and Abbott will reconsider their positions on mask mandates?

Given the frequency of school shootings, they can't argue masks are totally useless.

3. I am sorry, but I wouldn't want a snotty rag poked in my bullet hole. That is what paper towels are

for.

5. Probably cause lots of infection problems...

I would rather they looked for something else, personally.

8. Chance of infections doesn't matter when you bleed out

For treating gsw's, stopping the bleeding is the highest priority. Everything else is 2nd.

[2naSalit]

10. True...

Just is a thought that grosses me out thinking of having to deal with that on top of the wound.

[mgardener]

11. Yep!

You are going to get an antibiotic anyway...

[orangecrush]

17. Sanitary napkins

And tampons are suitable for gunshot wounds in an emergency.

As sterile as you're going to get.

4. In the Navy, I was told that use of dead shipmates to plug holes in the ship was acceptable

[Chainfire]

6. Yea, me too. They did caution us to pick sailors that were already dead though.

Although I remember a first class PO that I would have stuffed in live. Hey, butthead, how long can you hold your breath?

[MyOwnPeace]

9. Did NOT expect......

to bust out laughing in such a "sad topic" thread!

[Traildogbob]

19. Haaaaa

I have a chief and Ensign in mind.

[llashram]

7. yep

sad

[bottomofthehill]

12. Not much help.

They won’t do much to stop the bleeding. Better off using woman’s sanitary product and duct tape. Take your mask, run some water on it or try to clean a spill with it and see how it works. Answer, not well.

[orangecrush]

18. This.

[Solly Mack]

13. What's really fucked up is that some people will think "Good idea" because

school shootings have become such a normal part of American life.

Just "Good idea" - without once considering how much they now accept without question, without disgust, without outrage. Simply giving in to it.

Oh, golly. Another school shooting. Was it an anti-mask school? Too bad. Could have used those masks to plug all those gaping wounds.

Oh, well. What's for dinner?

[Scrivener7]

25. Yep. For the soulless gun fuckheads, the only thing that matters is that they never have to

face their responsibility for the carnage their hobby causes every damn day.

[monkeyman1]

14. NO SYMPATHY FOR ANTIVA'S -NO -VAX - YOUR DEAD !

IT'S REPUBLICAN POPULATION CONTROL & IT'S WORKING !! GO REPUBLICAN"S !

[Moebym]

15. Welcome to the USA.

A country in which we stuff the masks we must continue to wear because our fellow Americans can't or won't take a pandemic seriously to stanch the blood flow from bullet wounds caused by gun violence that continues to kill tens of thousands each year because our elected officials can't or won't do anything about it.

USA! USA!

[lunatica]

16. She looks like a child herself

I guess children learning how to shoot just comes with the times. Sigh…

[Bernardo de La Paz]

20. Up next, bullet-proof masks colour coordinated with available bullet-proof backpacks. . . . nt

[Piasladic]

23. oh my god!

Do I really need to think about how sanitary the thing I stuff into a kid's bullet hole is?
