A Minnesota school district where two students were killed in a 2003 shooting
unveiled a new device Tuesday aimed at adding a last-ditch layer of safety
for teachers and students: bulletproof whiteboards.

Thanks Itxi, I wanted so bad to point out how hilarious this is but I've been accused of being an alarmist tinfoil hatter lately so I was trying to keep a low profile.
I can just see the drills now. Ok children we have an active shooter, every one grab your white boards and assume the position, under your desk and don't forget to stop, drop and roll if you catch on fire from the muzzle flash.

Might be alright if the teacher was using it to steady their 9 or .45.

Laughable. It won't stop a 5.56 and would only delay the inevitable if the shooter was armed with a pistol. You have to stop a shooter with a bullet.

Back in the day....it was drop to the floor and crawl under your school desk to protect yourself from the nuclear blast. One hell of a lot cheaper and just as effective. :cool:

And of course the threat of nukes came from the Presbyterians. Who could forget that.
Anybody else have them desk all one piece with the seat with a little cupholder for your ink jar? How you suppose to hide under something like that?

Just had to make sure your head be under the seat to protect it from the blast. Best chance of surviving to at least be useful as third base.
