A guy on /b/ has drawn up plans to shoot up his school. How do I get the cops on him? - General

[QUOTE=BestGamer;20812188]No, are you?[/QUOTE] Are you by any chance the police? It'd make sense if you were. You joined today, have 3 posts, and they're all in this thread.

[QUOTE=QueenElizebeth;20812199]Also, I used to be admin on a San Andreas Multiplayer server and some guy admitted to growing weed in his back yard, so I got his IP, traced it and emailed his local cops. The Sergeant there emailed back saying it'd be dealt with. Last week I got told the guy I reported was in custody for cultivating marijuana.[/QUOTE] Now that's just mean... He wasn't hurting anyone, was he?

[QUOTE=PrismatexV8;20812133]Exactly, don't worry. You deserve the rest.[/QUOTE] "Deserve" You guys only had to send an email. Why didn't you just phone the damn school and tell them directly?

[QUOTE=ViralHatred;20812223]"Deserve" You guys only had to send an email. Why didn't you just phone the damn school and tell them directly?[/QUOTE] Well if anybody's still working at the school, then daaaamn, they're dedicated to their job. Keep in mind it's 3:30AM here already.

[QUOTE=ViralHatred;20812223]"Deserve" You guys only had to send an email. Why didn't you just phone the damn school and tell them directly?[/QUOTE] I phoned the police department dedicated to that school district and both police departments covering that area. I spent 20 minutes on the phone, and will be speaking with them tomorrow.

Is there anyone else it would fall under the jurisdiction of?

[QUOTE=FreakyMe;20812240]Is there anyone else it would fall under the jurisdiction of?[/QUOTE] I'd say that you've done your part already. The local police know of it - if they need any more law enforcement, they'll contact them themselves. Get some rest.

[QUOTE=FreakyMe;20812240]Is there anyone else it would fall under the jurisdiction of?[/QUOTE] School Governors if there is such a thing in the US. Or, the LEA, again if there is a such a thing in the US. Getting the police involved is probably enough though, they'll contact the relevant people.

[QUOTE=FreakyMe;20812232]I phoned the police department dedicated to that school district and both police departments covering that area. I spent 20 minutes on the phone, and will be speaking with them tomorrow.[/QUOTE] Frankly if this turns up trumps I'll laugh. Then again stuff like this isn't all that uncommon. Hell if I were to pull a shooting, I'd do it to the minute. Then again, that is the entire point of games like UT; To get rid of the aggro you'd normally put into someone else. Then again, I should probably sound more concerned but this is the internet and I rarely take it seriously anymore, so I guess an emoticon shall suffice. :ohdear: this sounds bad.

You've done your part, FreakyMe. If this guy was for reals, and the police know, he's screwed.

[QUOTE=farmatyr;20812253]-snip-[/QUOTE] What is the meaning of this?

On the phone with the FBI offices in LA seeing as this falls under a terrorist threat, which is a federal crime.

[QUOTE=BestGamer;20812266]What is the meaning of this?[/QUOTE] He said something that would have attracted the ire of the forum moderators, so he replaced the content of his post with -snip- to signify that people should disregard it.

[QUOTE=BestGamer;20812266]What is the meaning of this?[/QUOTE] It means he's taking back whatever he posted. So if I were to take back what I'm saying right now, I'd edit the reply and type in a simple "-snip-".

-snip- Ninja'd by above posters.

On the phone with the President. He says he's ready to nuke the motherfuckers house.

Good job Prismatex and FreakyMe, you are doing the right thing. Hope this guy gets caught, whether he's bluffing or not.

Interesting thread.

[QUOTE=FreakyMe;20812270]On the phone with the FBI offices in LA seeing as this falls under a terrorist threat, which is a federal crime.[/QUOTE] I think talking to two police departments about an angsty teenager who probably isn't going to do anything anyway is enough. Frankly, it's starting to look like you're just craving attention.

I wonder how many stars this guy will get?

[QUOTE=the_shape;20812287]Boy, you sure like attention, don't you?[/QUOTE] It'll pay off if the FBI gets involved.

[QUOTE=T2L_Goose;20812280]On the phone with the President. He says he's ready to nuke the motherfuckers house.[/QUOTE] lol

BestGamer is either trolling or being a really, really bad undercover cop.

Someone contact the media, this thread will get their attention.

[QUOTE=BestGamer;20812266]What is the meaning of this?[/QUOTE] "-snip-" means that they removed their own post.

I can't believe the people on that site. Srsly.
