I had to come home early from work. I'm day-drinking. I'm not okay.

On Tuesday; Tuesday, our great gettin’-up morning, our clinic held an active shooter drill. Only they didn’t tell us it was a drill. And instead of a scenario of a called-in threat, they had a security guy prowl the clinic with a toy gun, testing doors to see if any were unlocked.

The providers were in a meeting in the break room when we were told. We crowded into the provider bathroom and locked the door. Nobody knew it was a drill. Everybody was texting loved ones but me; I hadn’t brought my phone to the meeting. So I’m standing behind a locked door, unable to tell my wife what was happening. The guy rattled the doorknob of the bathroom, and then went away. One of my colleagues collapsed in terror and started crying.

Finally, we got the all-clear and found out it was a drill. We also found out that the shooter guy found the MA supervisor in an unlocked room, opened the door, pointed his gun at her, and said: “You’re dead.”

The entire clinic has been reeling since it happened. Providers are calling out, and they’ve sent in counselors for the rest of us. There needs to be an investigation. Why weren’t we told it was a drill? How could they keep up the pretense after people started thinking they were going to die?

I finished the day Tuesday, and worked my schedule yesterday. But I had to go home this morning after seeing one patient. We were all so scared, and I couldn’t text Mrs. Aristus about it. She has been furious ever since. She wants heads to roll. This is legally an act of terror. I don’t know how it is going to shake out.

But I’m not okay. I’m having a drink.

And I love you all…

I didn't think they made that anymore like Boones farm apple wine.

I didn't notice the name of the lunatic who composed this. I just started reading. Then I got to this part...

Everybody was texting loved ones but me

I immediately thought to myself, "a DUmmie has finally glimpsed the truth: that's its hatred and lunacy has pushed every normal person from its life". Then I read the rest and the composing lunatic and realized that it's just more fairy tale drivel from the dregs of society.

I should have known better.

If that person acted that way over a drill then I wonder how they would have handled the real thing? I had to hold a shooter at gunpoint just after he killed his daughters ex boyfriend outside the places where i was working. I was working night security for a store in Omaha when this happened, He came into the store and the night manager I was walking wit to go to the deli department saw that he had a gun and told him to drop it. Travis  was ex marine infantry and I was in the infantry in the Army. We had to hold that guy at gun point for 20-30 minutes before any Omaha cop showed up. Not going to lie that was not a fun night.
