At least in my school the internal/external threat drills were normalized enough that they weren't really traumatic. They were basically treated the same as fire drills. Looking back on it that fact is kind of messed up by itself.
I could actually see that being a good argument for why they shouldn't happen though since it might make people take the real thing less seriously if it ever happened.
The fact that they're normalized is exactly the trauma I'm talking about, it IS incredibly messed up!
