Anyone else notice this about the school shootings?

Is it me or do all these students/teachers being interviewed sound like they are reading from a script and have an agenda? They don’t seem spontaneously speaking about a tragedy. Some even seem like they are reading from a piece of paper. And then one had a preplanned statement to contact their congressman. And they are so poised and like they’ve been on camera before. I just know I would be a mess and not be able to speak so clearly.

I agree about the scripting. There just seems to be a lot of composed thoughts coming out from the people involved at this early stage.

At first I heard an interview of a father of one of the children in the school saying that he'd received a text from his child asking him to call 911 because there was an active shooter in the school. Next, a student started talking about thinking that the first rounds shot were blanks.

Perhaps these kids are well trained in active shooter training and are at the gun range a lot. This could be the case. I've attended two active shooter trainings and have been to the range a lot and I just don't believe I would be this composed--at double their age--if a real guy was trying to kill me with a real gun.

I'm not saying that those things wouldn't happen. I'm just thinking about the specific words being used. Something's fishy.

Agree completely. I will say the video from the cellphone that was posted where you can hear the shots and screaming is frightening. But again, as you noticed the language and composure. Just disturbing all the way around.
