My highschool literally had those and I had to wait in a long-ass line everyday before school, and if students are late, they get blamed for it, I’m not US-Bashing, its just the truth.
I knew people from bigger cities that had metal detectors in the mid-aughts. I think they’re wider spread now, but I don’t know much about schools now. Not sure about X-ray machines, never heard about those in a school.
In the sticks, we don’t have any of the machines. The textbooks are usually older than the pupils too and a lot of the stuff is in poor repair, so it may be an issue of funding.
So they’re treating kids like prisoners?
Fences, rigid schedule, forced interactions, institutional food, mindlessly boring, mandatory attendance I’m going to do a Foucault and say yes.
As if school wasn’t already a prison with all the metal detectors and xray machines.
What school has metal detectors and xray machines?!?
Like, most of the US
Eh, I know US-bashing is really popular here, but it has to be at least a little bit believable to be funny.

Example (this one is not my school btw):
There’s absolutely no way that’s true.
What reality do you live in?
Some dont even allow non clear bags to be brought in.

My understanding is that prison is waaaay worse. Needlessly cruel, you might say
