    At my daughter's high school today they went into lockdown. Someone called in that a student with a gun was in the restroom threatening to kill himself. It was a prank, but now the FBI is involved. Someone is going to be very sorry they did this.

    Earlier in the week a student in the system she used to teach for posted a pic online holding a rifle, standing clearly with an older relative and said they were going hunting. He was a known hunter. The superintendent called his mom saying he was going to be put on emergency removal because of a school shooter threat.The school district called law enforcement and half a dozen sherifs pulled up to the kids house and searched it and him, eventually determining there was no threat.

      Lots of CYA involved in that hair trigger.

      Education is extremely important.

        I was suspended for one day in 7th grade because one kid and I took a popsicle out of the Home Economics' freezer. I guess that wasn't so bad in retrospect.

          @89th Yeah, if I related our junior and senior high school exploits you would find you were an angel. Maybe a saint.
