There was a threat at my son's High School this morning, Police & Sherriff arrived quick with riffles drawn and removed the person....SWAT arrived soon after and went room to room, scary stuff.....


I was messaging back and forth with him to have a plan to run or hide if things got ugly.....He sent me this pic and said he was ready.....

"
Rockland ? The Rockland man whose actions led to a school lockout Tuesday, May 29, said voices in his head told him to "go shoot up a school."Police conducted a search warrant at the man's home Tuesday afternoon and seized several high-powered rifles, according to Rockland Deputy Police Chief Christopher Young.Young said a third party contacted the Rockland Police Department and alerted officers to the threat made by the man."


This could have been a very bad day for us......Thankfully someone spoke up.

holy shit, T! that's crazy. It's like school shooting roulette around here in the US. Why not move all the police stations and fire stations across the street/adjacent to the school buildings? Maybe their presence can help deter these crazed young people.

Was your son planning to hurl that spear or is it hand to hand fighting weapon?

Glad all is good, didn't even make National news. That is how immune we have gotten already, almost like expected.

My son was actually in Theater Class when it happened, the spear was a prop from a resent play....The kids didn?t realize how serious this could have been until after the fact.....We still don?t have the full story of everything that happened we just know the person in question had plenty of firepower to do a large amount of harm.
