Bomb threat called in at my school

[QUOTE=Hypershadsy;47491694]Where do you people live where bomb threats are common? That's terrifying.[/QUOTE]

Ehh, immediately after the Breivik's orchestration (which involved explosives), there was a.. surprise surprise, A bomb threat in a random school that I was attending at the time as well.

So, not sure how common, but fake bomb threats are often followed by actual bombings or attempts of it.

[QUOTE=Mister Sandman;47494137]We had a school shooting threat at my school. It was planned for a specific date, and on that date, there were cops very loosely masquerading as not-cops all around the school. The paper thin disguise was hilarious. Like nobody's going to notice a bunch of random pissed looking dudes that nobody's ever seen before standing around at key spots all day long are cops because they have a polo and khakis on.

Anyway, they eventually found out that the threat was all a misunderstanding. The misunderstanding? Someone had misheard two people in the bathroom talking about [I]paintball guns.[/I] They were going to bring their paintball guns to school in their trunks so when they could head out to play later. :v:[/QUOTE]

And that's why you call them paintball markers instead, that way nobody can misunderstand you.
