Multipe Fire Drills at Schools do more good than harm

Now for my rebuttal: "Since we are in the mode of following the fire drill code of conduct then everytime the fire alarm rings, we think it is still a fire drill because we are so used to following the fire drill code of conduct. Also everytime we go to line up all of us are talking walking in a blob etc. because none of us are taking it seriously as a real fire." Thank you for the clarification. Ladies and gentleman, my diligent opponent has made it quite clear as to what this "harm" is in having multiple fire drills. He is of the belief that students merely socializing as well as walking during the drill is problematic. I shall respond to both of these "problems" in detail: RE WALKING: Actually, walking during a fire drill should be encouraged. Honestly now, what point would there be in all of the students running (assuming the fire hasn't gotten to the point where there is no choice but to run, which is typically unlikely given that the school's smoke detectors would detect the fire long before it got to that point)? If anything, the instigator would be encouraging students to trample over one another and behave in a disorderly behavior (because lets face it, why would students RUN in an orderly line). RE TALKING: Again, not a problem. The instigator is of the flawed impression that socializing with one another while moving outside the building is a problem, but given that this in no way impedes students from actually getting out of the building, this is no problem at all. If anything, it is beneficial given that it will encourage students to be more relaxed during a fire. After all, the last thing we'd want our kids to be doing is having nervous breakdowns and responding in an "out of control" manner while the fire occurred. This would no doubt be extremely harmful. "Actually we would be prepared for the fire because of the couple of fire drills we had but also would be more serious because you never know if its a real fire because it doesn't happen often, or if its a fire drill because we have a couple during the school year so your always on your toes when the fire alarm sounds." Firstly, in acknowledging that he'd be prepared, he is acknowledging that the previous fire drills in the past have done plenty of good, therefore negating the resolution (keep in mind, he should be AGAINST the idea of multiple fire drills). You are automatically obligated to vote in favor of the contender because of this. Furthermore, it is unlikely that the students would be able to detect a real life fire before the smoke detectors. Unless the smoke detectors fail, most of the students in a decently sized school building would likely be directed out of the building before even realizing that there was an actual fire. Most importantly, it is common knowledge that school fires don't occur often, so it is highly unlikely that students would be "ON THEIR TOES" as the instigator puts it. Kids aren't so foolish as to not see that these fire drills would be done without actual being real. There's nothing to indicate that students would immediately start "freaking out" every once in a while the fire drill was initiated. Ergo, Mr. crazypenguin's theory is revealed for the baseless conjecture it is! For a brief overview, not only is it shown that the instigator is in favor of my stance, but the so-called problems he listed as being where this "harm" comes from has been swiftly refuted. Not to mention that I've covered why his "proposal" doesn't bring about the benefits he presumes. Therefore, this looks to be nothing more than a unanimous vote in favor of the contender.
