Deleted Account 5,203 Report Share Posted January 24, 2013 Glad it's not legitimate, but at the same time, if someone perpetrated this with bad intentions, I hope they get some jail time out of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redtiger 1,742 Report Share Posted January 24, 2013 From what I hear from a reliable source(not a student) the student who made the initial report stated that from his upper floor window he "saw a man in a grey sweat-suit with a pistol". Once the State Police began questioning him he said he just made it up. Kick the idiot out of school, and throw the book at him! Definately not funny, this was tramatic for some students on campus. I know it doesent sound like a whole lot but it really shook some people up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1girlsfan 10 Report Share Posted January 24, 2013 I am thankful it was only a hoax, but I hope the young adult gets some adult punishment. Jail time would definitely be appropriate, and I hope the judge makes him and/or his family pay for all the police officers' , security officers' etc...salary and overtime. I'm sorry just doesn't cut it. There are other ways to get attention. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also if there was ever a real threat,would the students take it serious... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also if there was ever a real threat,would the students take it serious... And also just imagine all the family and friends back home who were worried sick about those on campus. I'm sure there's going to be some parents out for blood if nothing happens to this kid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A good argument as to why our education system is much too bloated, and why college admissions standards need to be literally halved.
