I don't have a problem with drills. Again, it's the only way for them to know how to react should something happen, just like fire drills are in office buildings, drowning drills at beaches, etc.
There are so many drills in Manhattan now that when something real is happening there's always somebody on the news who witnessed it saying "I thought it was another drill or movie, had I known the gun was real I wouldn't have been standing there"
I think they have shown us recently what happens when they don't have any procedures in place, hopefully they can practice and put some into practice.
