Emergency 'Thoughts and Prayers' cabinets to be installed in every American classroom by 2020
The US Department of Education has revealed plans to install emergency ‘Thoughts and Prayers’ cabinets in every school classroom by the year 2020.
...
“For too long now our children have had to wait minutes, or potentially hours, to receive thoughts and prayers from elected officials and lawmakers, and that’s just not acceptable.
...
“From this point on, no American child will have to cower in absolute terror under their school desk whilst waiting for an NRA-bribed politician to tell them that they have their support at this difficult time.”
Finkelstein explained that the cabinets would be installed in both elementary and high schools across all 50 states within the next two years, with plans to extend the scheme to college campuses at some point in the future. Each cabinet will contain a selection of thoughts and prayers from both politicians and pro-gun lobbyists, and each student will be provided with their own American flag to hide under whilst they wait to be murdered in what should be a place of safety. It is believed that some cabinets will also be fitted with speakers that will play the national anthem at a volume loud enough to drown out distant screams, but not so loud that it draws the attention of the shooter.
