Fire or active shooter? Tennessee teachers could be tasked with determining the difference when the alarm goes off

During the attack at the Covenant School, emergency calls to 911 show at least one teacher stepped into the hallway after hearing alarms go off, thinking it could be a fire drill. One proposal in Tennessee’s upcoming special legislative session would change how schools react when the alarm sounds.According to the bill, HB7002, guns fired inside a school could produce smoke that sets off fire alarms.
