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.

Wow. What a horrific grift. If they had built 100% effective devices, it'd still be a grift. But this is just....disgusting honestly. They're stealing money from already underfunded school systems, and giving a false sense of security where there appears to be absolutely none. These don't look effective in the least, against anything really. I guess they plan on the shooter being someone who walks on the ceiling, because the only angle these things look to have any chance to protect someone from is from directly overhead.

The idea would probably be to protect them from the shooter shooting through walls/ricochet bullets

its like when kids where told to get under their desks if a NUCLEAR BOMB went of near by, i think its just there to say they are doing something.
