Just days ago, following the deadly shooting at a Florida high school, Busiso Chamululu visualized what he would do if someone came to Highline College with a gun and started firing.
“My friends were talking about it two days ago, imagining what the experience would be like,” he said.
Just after 9 a.m. Friday, Chamululu found himself sitting on the floor of his chemistry classroom, away from windows and doors with a handful of classmates, living the distinctly American experience of hiding in a school from someone with a gun.
