about those bombs

[The Unknown Guru]

My middle school went on lockdown because someone was sighted with "dangerous weapons" across the street. Turns out it was a couple a-holes with pellet guns.

God, I hated my middle school.

I think my school had an intruder alert once. Might have been a drill, may have not been. Apparently it was the real deal, cause we were locked in our rooms for a good hour or two. I think the cops showed up. I don't remember clearly.
I know we had a fire at my school though. I GOT TO SEEDED THE FIRE-TWUCKS!
Lucky I live in a safe-ish town. I bet threats like that are pretty damn scary.

there are two high schools in my county.
north laurel high, and sout laurel high.
today south laurel high's students got sent up becos someone
left a not in the front office saying, and i quote, "you thought columbine was bad, you just wait"
and then appearently not even 15 minutes after they sent south laurel home, an announcement came on the intercom at north laurel stating that all students should report to their classrooms immediately.

i go to north high. i was in lunch when this announcement was made.
i've never seen so many people panic in my life.
yes we've had bomb threat drills before. or even bomb threats where they grouped us all together in the gym. but today they sent us all the way back to the football field, about a mile and a half behind the school.

north laurel high had a real life bomb threat, that they considered was so dangerous the moved us. kids were panic-ing. teachers were trying to get everyone together, were they could call roll and see if anyone was missing. i myself had a severe panic attack and had teachers making sure i didnt get over heated.

topic: have you ever had a school shooting or real bomb threat at your school?

Yes, we had a bomb/shooting threat last April. I was skeptical all the way through, but it was pretty awesome, everyone whipped out their cell phones to call home to call the school to get sent home...I didn't call in fear of getting my precious phone confiscated, but it turns out that it was already all over the news channels on TV, so my parents called and got me out of there. It was a pretty sweet deal, seeing that I got to go home, and the commotion was really amusing...oh and in the end it was just a threat, no danger truly involved.

I've been in several schools, and most of the recent ones have all had the drills, but no actual bomb threats or shootings or whatnot, thank the heavens. Not even a fire, but we've had tons of idiots set off false alarms - even during cold Canadian winters. Jerks!

Yep. Some retarded ex-students thought it would be funny to phone the school and threaten it with a good ol' bombing. It wasn't funny, because it was in the middle of the A-Level exams, and the kids taking it had to evacuate and continue the exam in some utterly random place x___x How disturbing is that?

2 months before I moved out here there was grenade found in the principal's office.

i remember hearing of bomb threats at my high school but never when i was in it. i believe the year before i went to high school and then a year after. im not posotive they were bomb threats maybe something else but the school was evacuated.

[final fantasy is stinky]

Just last year my school went into lockdown cuz there was a gun/knife threat. But the kid with a gun didn't get caught even though everyone knew he had it. The other kid got sent to some other school for the summer but he's back this year ^_^

I had a couple bomb threats in high school; we evacuated and then rode school buses down to the elementary school (which is about 5 miles away from the high school) [also, small school district so there was only an elementary school and a jr/sr high]. It was more of an annoyance than anything else. Nothing was ever found.

We had like30583058385 bombthreats. but anyways. Once they actually evacuated the school for I think it was 3 days.

I used to work at a call centre for my ISP. One time this guy called up asking "What would you do if there was a bomb in your building right now?". It was pretty cool, we got evacuated and the rest of my shift was spent waiting around outside and talking to friends.
