theres some gnarly drones. like explosive drones that travel in groups of hundreds. theres nothing you can do when a sea of drones come at you endlessly.

I think this seems ridiculous, but there is a genuine problem that isn't being solved in better ways, and a police force who refuse to enter a school under an active threat until it's too late. I guess something is better than nothing?

A crude emp pulse generator is very easy to make. You could probably do it with just the junk tech everyone has around at this point. Battery, wire, switch, maybe a metal bar. Think a capacitor is the only real thing most people can't just throw together. I mean you could but it takes a little skill.
