Bomb threat....again

[tomtom]

-Sigh-

Yet another bomb threat at my school today. Don't people ever get that it isnt funny and wonthelp get you out of class? Well maybe it will, but sitting around in bleachers until things are cleared isnt any better. Any body had this happen to them?

And another thing to note, what do your schools do for things like this? Our school is extremely hypocritical, I've found. The threat was announced at about 9:20. We had come in from a routine earthquake/terrorist/fire/killer bee swarm drill at about 9:07. For the planned drill, everybody ends up in the practice athletic fields. For the bomb threat, we cram all 2400 students into one side of the stadium. Call me crazy, but if there's a possibility of a bomb going off, I dont think condensing everybody into one area (especially an area that the bomber knows you'll go to) is a good idea. But hey, thats just me.


Any thoughts on this?

[jmk2910]

my school has had over 30 bomb threats since i started going there, none this year yet. I agree that they are really dumb. once we had 2 in one day

:edit: nevermind, we had one yesterday!!!
:edit: and again today!!!
:edit: one more today
:edit: and again... again... one more time(a total of 6 right now)...
(i think im gonna keep this up to date every time we have a bombthreat)

[EastCoastDeft]

when i was in the forth grade somebody wrote on a stall door in the boys bathroom

a bomb will go off at 11:30
monday morning this october, but
which monday?

My entire school then went into the school yard for like 20 minutes every monday until the police got involved and said it was just a joke. Trust me bomb threats are no joke i was watching the news 3 months ago and a kid got a bunch of chemicals in a water bottle about to set it off the last day of school except it accidently went of in his backpack when he was walking to school, so now his face is permantly dislogded.

also another problem at my school an 8h grader 3 years ago got a teachers email (ex: teacher@bla,com). the kid would email other teachers with threats at this email, teacher.@bla.com. so it looked like teacher with the similar address was sending it. The kid was incredably stupid because a teacher works for AOL at my school so she can track him down. after a couple of days a police team combined with an AOL team took the kid outta class. BTW he didnt get expelled just in school.

[thegooch]

yeah our school doesnt really do much about them they just bring in cops as if htats gunna help....so if a bomb does go off theyll block it?
come on thats stupid but what are u gunna do

[oviedolax]

at my friends school theres like a drug bust or bomb threat like every week

[Redbirds Lax]

since we havnt had a killer bee swarm before here in Ontario before what do you do if there is one? (we have never practsied it before)

[laxcanada]

there are no killer bees in cananda, and there never will be (too cold)
last year there were 3 bomb threats in one month and 2 gun threats at my friends school

[truss009]

when i was in 10th grade we had 8 bomb threats. We had the most in the area, and that includes city schools. And everytime it would be during 3rd block. We would end up either walking down to the primary school, or catching a bus down. Then we would sit in the auditorium or gym for about an hour or so, until they called us back in. These things are pointless, it's just kids looking for some attention, and they are trying to get it the wrong way.

[spyopticgoggles]

last yr a kid had a gun in his car, but it turned out it wasnt an actual gun and it was for a reanaction (sp?). now i have this kids mom as a teacher. also, her daughter got arrested for prostitution and works at a XXX dancer place near me.

[CSlax06]

Haha thats weird. ''Yeah I saw your daughter at work the other day...Shes quite pretty...''

lulz

[Sir Mackel]

Yea, my friend called in a bomb threat. so the next day before they found out he did it. We jumped him, cause hes stupid.(No one would like him if he wasn't sponsored as a skater). He almost got expelled.
Haha reminds me off the like street fight me and my friends had with the abundunce of hispanic kids at our school. It was chaos and funny and fun at the same time. I was the only kid to get away without being suspended.(I'm not racist, this group of kids would be hated whatever race they where)


Back on topic, bomb threats are stupid and the people who call them in just want attention, and people talking about them. so after one you should ignore them and they won't do it anymore.( works most of the time?)

[Bretmac]

wow this is pretty stupid ive never incountered a bombthreat but im only a freshie and like my fello canucks what do you do for the killer be swarm thing

[lax21goalie2008]

I had a bomb threat at my school when I was a freshman (I'm a senior now), and they had us line up at one entrance. They had a dog smelling our bookbags and such to make sure that no one had a bomb.
I can't believe that my parents made me go to school when there was a bomb threat.

[Redbirds Lax]

no seriously what do you do during a killer bee swarm?

[tiplax]

i heard some stat that my school leads NY in Bomb threats. It's funny cause we have around 600 kids and i'm friends with 3 kids who got accused for makeing some.

i go to Irvington, HS in NY, and it's never been an issuse here in the past. they are installing camera's and they've used this as an excuse to ban students from ordering food from off campus to help boost the cafeteria sales

and i'm not gonna lie, i love bombthreats cause i get to miss class, and this year i have no study halls or lunch cause all my classes are AP's or honors so any break is nice

[goalie diez]

yeah last year we had several violence threats last year and we went into lockdown only once and got out of school early but they stopped after that because whoever it was got what hey wanted and that was to get out of school early but they told us the next time it happened we were staying in lockdown for hours until the police searched the shcool completley so we would be tehre until like 5....needless to say the threats stopped

[ML_LAX09]

no seriously what do you do during a killer bee swarm?

I think it may have been sarcasm.

[Wooks]

I think it may have been sarcasm.

I'm not sure about you guys up in Canda, but here in the states, our sprinklers turn on and spray OFF! bug spray all over the place.

Sarcasm? Nah, that's ridiculous.

[ML_LAX09]

I'm not sure about you guys up in Canda, but here in the states, our sprinklers turn on and spray OFF! bug spray all over the place.

Sarcasm? Nah, that's ridiculous.

Really? I'll have to talk to my principal about that. My school could use those...
In Jersey, we have Bear Alert Program. Kinda like a Killer Bee Swarm drill, only we throw freshmen down instead of spraying OFF!.





:cough: Even though I am a freshmen... :cough:

[faceofflax15]

We get bomb threats constantly, our principal actually just erases them.. Well that was our old Principal, and he went to the new school, and our old one was my old middle school principal, he handles stuff really well, a bomb went off while at middle school. So he will probaly figure out a great plan for it, like us going home.

[cali feeder]

Heh, TomTom's school used to play our school in lax. I bet it was Marky, huh.

Anyways, our school hasn't had a threat in my years there, but before I went there were a couple. From what I understand, they put everyone in an open grass field.

[abomb]

If there is a bomb (threat) we do the same thing we would do if there was a fire (drill), or an earthquake (drill). We go out to the field.

[XcaliLaxX]

Thats nothing. My school set the New York state record with 5 in 2 weeks.

[slinkyspine]

When we get one we go home...

You americans have a bad system

[tomtom]

since we havnt had a killer bee swarm before here in Ontario before what do you do if there is one? (we have never practsied it before)

Haha, i was just kidding with the last one.

And no, it wasnt Marky, but we did try to smuggle him out of the stadium through the back. He didnt go for it because somebody beat him to the escape route, so they had people there soon. I know yur jealous of our wood....

[jonchoo]

i nevar had a real bomb treat at me school

[THE_1protector]

uhg. mine had one this past week too. someone called it in from the bmore county 911 saying there was one in our auditiorum. but like 20 mins later they let us in. did they even look for it? the aud is a big place. unless they have super man x raying the place... but albmost after we got in someone pulled the fire alarm. all together we spent about an hour outside.

wat really blows is when we get threats in the winter and we have to stand outside for an hour while they search the school. lame-o

[sailorslax88]

my school just sent out letters that they found some threatening letter in the boys locker room

[TheE3Man]

Bomb threats are awesome because I get to go home and do nothing...Huraay!

My friend had an idea though:

What if you wrote in a note, "Theres a boom box in the school" and then you put a boom box in like some locker or something? His theory is that the school would spaz out and think its a bomb threat and everyone would get out of school. But then he wouldn't get in trouble because he really did have a boom box in his locker. I think it could work...hmmm......

EDIT: Definantly not going to try it though....lol

[NALC24]

u yanks are crazy, here we never get bomb threats the worst we get is fire drills, and killer bee swarms, sounds like a really bad horror movie to me,
but hey ive never been to USA before

[THE_1protector]

ok so seriously. we need someone here from the southwestern area of the states to enlighten us all on a killer bee swarm drill. cause killer bees def are a problem down there. and all this talk make me wonder. im very sure at the least they do is keep everyone inside and shut the windows but thats only a guess. here in the baltimore county public schools, they would prolly send us outside cause they are a bunch of flipping idiots.

i agree with slinkyspine, our schools do have a bad system. whos to say that the bomb was where they said it would be? or that some crazy terrorist kid or adult doesnt sneak onto the football field with the other 2100 kids and blow us all to little bitty pieces? man id sure be pissed if i got blown up. my school by the way actually had a bomb go off in the school, it was a battery acid bomb and it destroyed one of the b rooms.

[shooter]

Umm, we get them in Australia too mate. My school got more than it's fair share, and I know of other schools that would get them as well.

Oddly enough it was always at the start of the same period, somebody must have been shyte at Indonesian or Maths or something.

Wow this thread brings back memories of being on the school oval, kicking a hacky sack as the police would wander the school searching for something that never existed.

[tomtom]

Just an update, they caught the kid who called it in. Apparently, he ditched bomb threat class the day they taught them to call in on a pay phone....used his cell....tard. He's been arrested.

Anyways, my biology teacher was happy, she had been saying since the beginning it was a sophomore boy based on her experiences, and she was right.

[laxar106]

there was a bomb threat at my school last week and they announced there was a fire, then they moved us to the bleachers and said there was a bomb threat and they sent us home. haha and wen i was walking back with my friends a truck hit a pothole and it made a really loud boom and everyone thought it was a bomb so they screamed and ducked hahaha

[WinnytheSully]

We get them about twice a year, we just go to the elementary school next door and sit in their gym and caf, it really sucks. My dads school had a week where they had one a day, and after that they said the next person who does one gets sent to juvie, and sure enough they got video of them on a payphone. The high school here had the homecoming football game and the dance delayed a month because of a bomb threat two weeks ago.

[Dodge UranusOff]

I can't even imagine the routine for a bomb threat at Columbine HS. Those two were insane.

[MadMikeTheSpike]

People don't realize what they're doing when they try to skip class like this or get a laugh out of it.

Some day there may be a real threat. It's like 'The Little Boy Who Cried Wolf.'

[BurnSomeRope]

some crazy kid threatened to blow a kid up 2 days ago, the kid got arrested but nothing happened shutting down the school-wise

[DB6]

We had a bomb threat last year. We had to go to the football field and stay there for a couple hours. It was pretty fun.

Our principal was being really dumb though. First he told us that it is possible that the supposed bomb could be triggered by a cellphone, so turn your cell phones off. Then, he went on to say that if you have any info about the threat or bomb, call this number, which he said. That just strikes me as him being dumb. My friends and I were cracking up when he said this.

maybe its justme, but i havnt heard of anyin my area, and there is alot of skools here to. i know that it would happen here in australia but i as trying to say that it doesnt happen as much here

[Warrior_laxman-]

bomb threats are nothing compared wat happened at my school last year... Ok there was a kid in the highschool who used to be in a gang but he was turning his life around and his old friends didn't like that and they got in a huge fight, well the kid in the highschool was in the city and got shot... then a day later two gangs started fighting over this converisal death and say there gonna come and kill anyone related to him and friends with him and thats a good amount of people 300 mabye( mostly people who live in the city but lie to the state and say they live in our diserct) and they said they were gonna kill his brother who is in my grade so the cops heard about this and there were 20 cop cars on our campus for a week and 200 kids skipped school for like three days

ROTFLMAOOL that's hilarious.:grin: . I've never had a bomb threat, I'm in MS, it mostly happens in like HS. I think. But they're just a call for attention (mostly detention) if some people feel, like, I don't know. Then there's the classic "gang" who have a guy write like: I implanted an H-Bomb to go off next thursday at 10:30. Then like, everyone in the gang is watching, giggling, and laughing, and such and such. Like just for laughs. Cough Cough morons Cough Cough. And some are even stupid enough to put in a time where veryone has already gone home.

I don't get it, what's an H-Bomb? What do you mean by they were sitting and laughing?

[THALAX]

I don't get it, what's an H-Bomb? What do you mean by they were sitting and laughing?

I'm guessing he meant hydrogen bomb, and that the gang kids were sitting and laughing while they were calling in the bomb threat.

[UNCLax12]

bomb threats aren't big at our school, although randomly pulling the fire alarm that's big.

[MadMikeTheSpike]

Oh... Whoops... I just made myself soun dlike an idiot...

At my grade school we had a false fire alarm once, and of course my class got blamed (we were the class that misbehaved the most in spanish and the spanish teacher told the principal that it was us.) Turns out it was this one 7th grader. Ahh.... Memories of eigth grade! False fire alarms happen about every week at my friend from Michigan's school. They got the kind of alarms that spray ink every where, so the Seniors who pull the fire alarm gotta be careful!

I hadn't heard this when I posted yesterday, but they printed in the paper that someone in my school wrote a note that the janitor found that was extremely racist and threatened six black students. I guess it's pretty serious, they turned it over to the police. Me and my friends have a good idea of who would have done this, even though we are Stupid Freshman :thumbsup:
It just kinda sucks, because someone's gotta get kicked out for that, and they're gonna regret it!

[In the corners]

One week in 6th grade we had 4 bomb threats mon-thu it was pretty sweet accually because it was from the same kid and the school knew it, but they still had to send us to the high school for 45minutes minimum. Also in 7th grade we had a gun threat, 2 bomb threats, and an intruder in our school in two weeks. All different people.

[jmk2910]

if any one saw my post (#2 on page 1), you know that my school has been constantly getting bomb threats, a total of six to date
heres proof>>

[WIlax]

We actually had one like 3 weeks ago for the first time in years..they brought us out and sat ALL 1600 of us on our bleachers which are probably ment to hold 800..they told kids that they couldnt use their cell phones..but, being kids we did. Parents started showing up at the front gate trying to come get their kids and the administration literally wouldnt let parents take their kids home..So, what do angry kids and angry parents do? RIOT! Everyone eventually got fed up and just started leaving..things got crazy and one teacher got knocked out..Im sure they wont be using that same bomb threat proceedure again in our school..

[FamousAmos]

Really? I'll have to talk to my principal about that. My school could use those...
In Jersey, we have Bear Alert Program. Kinda like a Killer Bee Swarm drill, only we throw freshmen down instead of spraying OFF!.





:cough: Even though I am a freshmen... :cough:

you might need some cough medicine.

[DoverLax09]

one time we had a bomb threat and they had to search everyones bag for either bombs,knifes,drugs,ect and they kept annocing it over the intercom like "please when you get outside do not i repet do not bring your bag"it was really oviouse.anyways knowing i had a knife in my bag (small little poctet knife)i put it in my shoe.(they searched you on the way out)and they didnt see it thank god. so then i asked my teacher if i could use the port-a-potty ans she said yes so then i threw my knife in the port-a-potty and everything was good after that,but 37-39 kids got arrested for drugs and knifes that day.

[EricL]

Our school has the huge surveillance cameras which replaced our black dome ones in every hallway since we had like 8 bomb threats last year with 5 cases of fake fire alarms.

Some dumb kid I saw this year pull the fire alarm infront of teacher. Thats like a 2 month expulsion with a several thousand dollar fine.

[SuperDuper46]

we have a few every year and this year 6 kids got arrested on the first day of school

[rynolax]

There was a second grader that came to the middle school to visit their sibling, and when their parent looked away, they pulled the fire alarm. It was pretty funny.

[best of mml]

we had a bomb treat about 4 days ago and we were sent to the football feild(about a mile away from the school) to sit there while the police searched the building for about 20 minutes. and after the police was done checking the school we went back and we had like an hour lecture from our princepal.

[THE_1protector]

hey i have a great fire drill story. ok so i have this art teacher who def is a stoner. plays in a folk band, looks stoner, def has been to class under the influence once or twice. but he is cool. anyways, fire alarm goes off and he jumps over to his desk and we see him puting on his backpack. now wat would be so important in that thing that he has to take it out during a DRILL? cause i think i can speak for everyone here, let it burn. so my friend and i ask wat is inside, he replies ''books and stuff'' why doesnt he just admit it. and he is always drinking GREEN tea. wonder wat green it is.so thats it.

[JLancer24]

So youre saying that green tea is linked to marijuana?

[THE_1protector]

So youre saying that green tea is linked to marijuana?

i am most definitly saying that. the stuff he described in his pack i am also saying is linked to said substance.

[laxplaya77]

Our school district set the record for the most bomb threats in the US. I live in Lapeer, Michigan. Its next to the most violent city in america which is Flint,Michigan (go figure). We had 23 bomb threats in 1 year, which was in 2005.

One of the times was really stupid because some kid said he dropped a "bomb" in the bathroom. He didnt mean bomb literally, but he was referring to taking a #2 in the bathroom.

A 5th grader at an elementary school wrote "bom" in red marker on the girls bathroom wall. She obviously couldnt spell it correctly. The police caught her and she denied it. Then they asked her to write the word bomb down and she wrote "BOM".

Then we got a new kid at our school. he was a monster, about 6'2" tall and about 230 lbs. He wouldnt talk to anyone and he was on my bus. He said there was a bomb in the school and they had so many cops/firemen/ambulances there. His family had to pay $100,000 and the kid is in a Juvenille camp.

It got so bad that year that there was a $1000 reward for any kid who had enough information to turn someone in. It actually worked.
Its gotten so out of control with the threats that the school district just ignores the threats unless they are extreme. Thats what all of my teachers say because there is about 2 every month at our high school. Kind of freaky....

[Titanoh]

In 3rd grade we had a bomb threat, they made us walk to sister school, and all the parents brought us drinks and cookies...lol.

Last year we had to get under our desk at school, aparently some dude was fishing with a shotgun, and some sniper hunting rifle.

[laxhero123]

my scholl hasnt had any bomb threats do to all the the day cameras. but the day before break a couple kids found where the cameras cant see you all over the school. no joke we had about 10 stink bombs go off. no one has gotten caught yet

[Lacr0sse15]

i was at a movie with my friend and his family, and someone pulled the fire alarm. the staff was throwing free movie passes out like confettie. i ended up with two. my friend's family of seven (they had grandparents in town) ended up with 13 free movie passes! so my friend says "we got how many?"..."WE GOT 13?!!!!!!!" and people just looked at us. It was funny and is gonna save me money on a date ;)

I know, a little off topic. anyway, my school is relatively new (this is the third year it's been open) and i don't think there's been a bomb threat yet. At least not while i've been there

[dalaxmandef3]

Haven't had a bomb threat yet, but we get drug bust all the time they bring the dogs that sniff for drugs. We have the ceilings that are a bunch of squares made out of styrofoam feeling stuff that looks like somebody stabbed it with a pencil a couple thousand times so people hide their in the ceiling. Somebody ran in to hide their stash in the bathroom while my friend was takin' a leak.

[bonebrakr12]

i might know what school u go 2! where in NC do u live?

[missouri lax]

One time at my school a kid wrote that it was the judgement day for all fags. Nothing happened.

[laxgoalieguy123]

I moved about 3 months ago, and at me new school we have bomb threats all the time. There have been 3 threats in the time I have been here. They don't even send us out or anything, they just call the police, search the building, and send a note home to the parents. Every time it has happened in either a stall in the bathroom or on the back of the bathroom door. Now all bathrooms are locked and you can't use any except for two right next to the office, and you have to get a pass from the secretary and then they have to unlock the bathroom door, wait for you, and then lock it again. It is getting pretty insane.

[JohnsHopkins16]

No bomb threats, because although im a freshman im in a middle school building..drug busts though......... I wanna put dog treats in my locker for the dogs that check..haah I would never do that though!

[bonebrakr12]

my freind did that at his school, and expelled for it too.

[jaxlax1140]

At my school {an elementary school} some stupid sixth grader last year wrote bomb on the wall and everyone flipped. There was six cop cars, a small bomb squad, and cops were lining the hall for 2 weeks. We were on lockdown in our classroom for 3 hours It was CHAOS!!!

[thepalehorse]

my school has been terrorized by so many bogus ones that the school is run like a prison. take go the bathroom without someone holding my hand, not litterary you girls. hillsborugh if anybody knows from nj.
