Get the Lockdown 2.0 mug.Lockdown, or Lockdown Mode, is when a public school building is literally locked down so that the Police, as well as the Great Drug-Sniffing Dogs, can search - without a warrant - lockers for drugs and other Contraband Items. And before you ask, yes it is constitutional. I am so sorry.
1. During the annual lockdown mode, we must turn off all the lights in the classroom and not move a muscle; if we are seen in the hallways we are automatically a suspect.
2. Many students question whether this Torture violates the fourth amendment - as there is search and seizure going on without a Warrant - but I'm afraid that you lose many constitutional rights when we go into our schools.

Get the lolbrown mug.Lockdown Surfing is the act of continuously traveling to new places that are under less restriction then the place they currently are, due to the Coronavirus Pandemic.
For example, if you are currently in London and see that the city was going into lockdown you would leave to a city, such as Berlin, that was under less restrictions. If while in Berlin, you see that the city will soon increase its restrictions you would leave to go to another city, like Lisbon. This act of Lockdown Surfing is then continued to the next city until there are no more restrictions in place.
