School Lock Down

I just received a phone alert from the city about a lockdown of the school due to an on-line threat made by a student - the lockdown happened during the removal of the student. They said everyone is safe now - no weapons were involved - more information to follow.

Did others get the same alert/

"Attention press any key or hold for an important message. This morning Melrose high school was placed on lock down. It came to our attention this morning that a student made online threats he was immediately removed from the building. The school was placed on lock down during his removal. Please note there was no weapon in the building at any time. All students are safe. We have return to our usual school business and will do so for the remainder of the day. We will provide further details on the situation soon."

Re: School Lock Down

I want to know how come it wasn't more widespread news that it was the same kid who caused the lockdown today as it was who vandalized the Jewish cemetary? I didn't even know they causght the kids for the cemetary vandalism. Why is that? Is it because it's to a causcasion Trump supporter? I'm sure it it was that would've been front page news. You wonder why there is racial tension in the world. It's because everyone is not treated equal. Some things get covered up.

Re: School Lock Down

The student who clearly is troubled was indeed the same student who vandalized the cemetery and it was in the paper that they knew who the culprits were. It was covered in the free press and weekly news but without identifying underage children. We don’t know if he/they were placed on probation (because there was more than one). Obviously there is more going on than we know or will ever know. Hopefully he will get the help he needs without placing anyone else or himself in jeopardy.

Re: School Lock Down

Trump will be President for the next 3 plus years - and probably for the next 7 plus years - so get used to it!

This country will again be an economic powerhouse leading the world - and that's a good thing rather than letting the despots, dictators, and terrorists run the world!

To Democrats - continue to be obstructionists - and your party will be put in the dustbin of history - like communism and socialism.
