アメリカの高校の治安
Welcome to Kevin's English Room Podcast.
Hello.
Hey, guys.
What up?
Okay.
I've got many messages.
That's great.
Yeah.
That's really good.
Thank you.
How's the new system?
Is there anything to add on?
Is there anything that you'd like to tell the audience to be careful with?
So far so good?
Yeah.
Okay.
That's good.
That's really good.
That's good.
I saw some people sending, like, two exact same messages in a row, and that's… you don't
have to do it.
It's not necessary.
Yeah.
Okay.
Got it.
Yeah.
Maybe like a…
Double-click?
Yeah.
Weird double-click or something?
Yeah.
Okay.
Yeah.
But intentional double-sending is not necessary?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Like, I'm going to… yeah.
Okay.
Got it.
Got it.
I'm just trying to make things more… more complicated, so…
Mm-hmm.
Okay.
Sorry.
Boom.
This one.
I don't know what that was.
I don't know.
I don't know why you want to do that.
Oh, okay.
Just random?
Yeah, random.
Okay.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So this is from Shiratama-san.
Okay.
Thank you.
Thank you.

Kevin-san to Yama-chan ni ohanashi.
Thank you.
Sorry.
Sorry.
OK.
アメリカの高校での警備
OK, thank you.
You know, I guess, you know, in the U.S. recently,
there has been a lot of, like, school mass shootings and all that trouble.
So that's, I mean, I guess I could relate to that, you know.
And when I was...
High school, when I was a high school kid.
High school, yeah.
I came here from high school, but, like, before that,
I did a little bit of high school in the U.S.
They were regularly a police officer and a, what was it called?
A sniffer dog would come in and check each car.
Because, you know, some people would come in their cars because we drive.
Wow.
And kind of sniff each car.
And sniff eats lockers inside our school.
So they came inside the building?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
They came inside our building, like, on a random date.
They wouldn't tell us when, but they would just...
The dog would sniff out if there's any drugs or any, you know, substances that aren't supposed to be in the premise.
And, yeah, they would come and they would just kind of, like, search the area randomly.
And that was there.
And that was a thing that you wouldn't see in Japan.
I mean, the police with the dog came inside the building randomly?
Randomly, yeah.
Suddenly.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And they would search the area.
Wow.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I've never seen the police guy in a high school area.
Searching the area, right?
Yeah.
Yeah.
アメリカの高校のルール
We would also have to wear...
I don't know.
This might be there in Japan as well.
But in America, you would have to have a badge when you're walking in the school building.
Even the students.
Ah, it's like a...
Pass?
セキュリティの違い
Yeah, like, yeah, you would have to have a, like, a pass that's visible to the security guards.
And if you...
And if a human being is walking in the building without the pass, they would be stopped and
would be asked to identify himself immediately.
Wow.
So, yeah, having the pass was very important.
It's just like Amazon Music Studio talks about.
Exactly.
Right.
Wow.
Go in that building without a pass.
Yeah.
Like, 40 seconds, you're out.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Wow.
Yeah.
So, that's not going to be happening.
Not in Japan, no, right?
No, because...
Well, I mean, I was from public school, not, like, private school.
So, it might be different.
Because I sometimes see that in the private school, you had a, like, more security kind of...
You're talking about the Japanese private school?
Yeah, Japanese.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Security.
No, God.
But, like, more like, you know, yeah.
But my high school was public.
You know, the gate was always open.
Mm-hmm, mm-hmm.
And anybody can, well, actually can come in.
Yeah, yeah.
And nobody was watching.
Mm-hmm.
So, yeah.
So, anyone could sneak in and sort of go into a classroom?
Well, I mean, yeah.
Right?
And then freak people out?
Yeah.
That was possible.
That's possible, yeah.
Mm-hmm, mm-hmm.
That's, yeah, that's not going to happen in the U.S., you know.
Wow.
Well, I mean, I'm sure there were...
And then, like, at the ground, too.
Mm-hmm.
But still, it's not, like, secured place.
It's open.
There were no guards?
Nothing like that?
No, I don't remember, no.
Uh-huh.
Yeah.
Wow, true.
Yeah.
Think about that.
It's a...
Yeah.
Right.
True.
Right, right, right, right, right.
How about France?
Um...
No.
We...
Nothing.
Mm-hmm.
Nothing?
Yeah, it's just, like, Japanese school.
Wait, no guns are allowed in France, right?
No, no, no.
Right, okay.
No, but no police came in.
Mm-hmm.
No dogs came in.
Mm-hmm.
Well, I mean, there are, like, some...
Not teachers, but, like, some staff people to, you know, see around.
Yeah.
But they're not, like, you know, professional security people.
They're just...
Two beautiful young lady, actually.
Okay.
Walking around in a...
Yeah.
Well, she was beautiful, actually.
Oh, okay.
Well, that's good to know.
Yeah.
But, yeah, so...
And the gate was open for all the time.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Right.
So, yeah, maybe the American security is very...
Right.
Like, severe.
Yeah, I think you needed a...
I think there was a guard, like, a security guard standing on the gate, at the gate.
And you would have to show the pass to enter in the first place.
I think.
If I remember correctly.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah, I think that was the protocol.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah.
Wow.
So, very different.
Yeah, very different.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Wow.
銃撃事件の発生と学校の閉鎖
When I was in high school, there was once a gunfight that occurred, right?
And then...
In your school?
In my school.
I wasn't there.
It was, like, on a...
I think it was, like, a Sunday or...
It was after school.
Mm-hmm.
Like, I wasn't in the school anymore.
I was, like, at home.
Wow.
But, like, yeah, this Mexican guy versus, like, this black guy was, like, got in a fight.
One decided to pull out their gun and kind of shot the other guy.
Yeah.
And then the school was shut down the next day.
What?
Of course.
What is...
Wow.
It's fucked up, right?
That's...
Yeah.
It's some shit.
It's some shit, right?
Yeah, that's...
Yeah, it happens.
I mean, if you pull up a gun...
Yeah.
That's, like, the end of the game.
True.
Yeah.
How come does that turn into, like, gunfight?
Well, I mean, that one was pissed off, right?
Yeah.
It was just really mad and just decided to act on its madness and just kind of...
And put up a gun and...
You know, didn't think and just went with the energy and just...
Wow.
A mistake of a lifetime.
But, yeah, that's what happened.
Oh.
That's...
Wow.
I know.
Shocking.
It's shocking, right?
Yeah.
It's pretty shocking.
Yeah.
謎の白い粉の出現
We also had, like, a lot of, like...
I don't know what it was, but, like, some sort of a white powder.
We had white powder all around school.
Like, you would find, like, this little powdered white shit.
Probably cocaine or, I don't know, weed or something.
Yeah.
Just sitting there at the stairs, like, on the...
On the edge of the stairs.
Yeah.
And it was pretty frightening, you know?
Very frightening.
So, and this...
Also, there was this...
I was in a computer class.
Mm-hmm.
And this guy next to me was like, hey, man, do you want to try some of this?
And he showed me, like, a white powder.
And I was like, oh, my God.
No, man, I'm good.
No, I'm good with that stuff.
Yeah.
No, I'm good.
I was so scared inside.
Big guy came to you.
Yeah, big guy came to me and was like, offered me...
I don't know.
I don't know what it was.
It was probably cocaine.
I don't know.
But, like, yeah, it was, like, offering me powder and shit.
Yeah, yeah.
Didn't even tell me what it was.
Yeah, yeah.
Maybe the flour.
Could have been flour.
Corn starch, maybe.
Yeah, yeah, maybe, but...
But, like, he told me it was good stuff.
Flour is a good stuff.
You can bake scones.
Yeah.
Okay.
It might have been flour.
It might have been corn starch.
I don't know.
Yeah, it should be that one.
Yeah.
It was fucked up, man.
Wow.
It was fucked up.
Well, I mean...
Good thing I didn't stay there for long.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
True.
Yeah.
True.
Wow.
Is that...
But, like, that was the usual...
Well, it was a public school.
Public school, yeah.
So, I guess that's, like...
アメリカの高校での生活
I mean, that's...
Yeah, and the school itself, it wasn't, like, infamous for, like, a very bad environment
or anything like that.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It was a normal, local public school.
Yeah.
Wow.
Yeah.
So, it's...
Yeah.
It's been pretty...
Pretty different, yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's true.
Wow.
Yeah.
環境に注意
Then it's natural for teachers from the United States...
To be...
Right.
...the rooms and then...
To be sort of, you know, be cautious about, you know, the environment and all that stuff.
Right.
Yeah.
Wow.
Right.
Right.
Thanks for sitting, guys.
Thank you.
Bye-bye.
