OT, don't care... BOMB THREAT...

Posted by Tim Malin on February 27, 2003 at 14:55:06 from (207.190.93.84):

I don't know if many of you know, and I hope by saying so I don't lose any of my respect (like i have in the past because of my age, but hasn't happened here), but i am a 17 year old student at Westby High School, Westby WI. Today, fifteen minutes before lunch started (I looked forward to lasagna), we were directed to walk up the street two and a half blocks to the church (bomb threat procedure). We packed 350 people into a chuch with a capacity of about 300. Not only to say everyone was angry, no lunch, out in the cold in t-shirts, we cancel school and because many of the bus drivers lead "normal" lives also, we were short drivers. We divided students by "region" in which they lived. Here's how my day went: 12:30-1:30 sat in church (paged through every page of green Lutheran hymnal, singing all of the ones I know just for kicks) 1:30-3:00 on a bus with screaming idiots trying to tell bus driver different directions on how to do his job. Here, at home, a teenager not eaten in nine hours, I chew on my roast beef that my dad put in the crock pot for me (AWESOME) and think that I will be going to school some Saturday in the next couple weeks (Wisconsin has a law that school cancelled due to a bomb threat must be made up on a Saturday, I expect to deter threats). Now, although I don't know what has happened from 1:30 on, I expect that they found no bomb. Now, where does the notion to make a threat come from? Who does it profit? I would love to hear a story of a bomb threat that went unsolved. This angers me. I said in the church "If there is a actual bomb but doesn't cause damage, I just hope they catch the guy. If there is no bomb, I'm gonna kill somebody." Empty threats are week and pointless. Now, I'm not saying bomb my school, but what can bother an individual so much to actaully make a bomb or bring a gun to school? Personally, I think if they catch the kid, we shouldn't have to go to school six days a week. I have a headache. Thank you all, my friends, for giving me a spot to vent a little bit.
