OK I'm pissed. This Thursday at 11:00 A.M. the principal of my high school comes on the PA and tells us that we all have to leave the school by 11:15 because of a threatening message in the girls bathroom. Okay fine. This has only happened about 300 times in the past but we should evacuate this time because of the Littleton scare. Thats ok with me. Get to school the next day. Try to go to the bathroom. Just to get to the bathroom I have to have my passbook signed by the teacher, then sign out of class on another paper, sing into the BATHROOM, where a volunteer parent is glaring at me like I'm some kind of pond scum. Then sign OUT of the bathroom. The parent then goes into the bathroom to make sure I didn't plant a bomb or write a death note. Then I sign back into class. While enroute to the head and back I was stopped FOUR times by these do gooding parents, all of who assumed that I was a criminal. But this is all OK because whoever did write that message is going to be dumb enough to do it again while we are monitoring the bathrooms, and we'll be sure to catch them this time. Oh yeah every door in the school is locked too, which we all know will stop a bad guy, since the doors are non bullet proof glass. Visitors to the school now have to sign in and wear a big yellow sticker (star shaped?). The ass. principal just about attacked my mom when she went in the other day without knowing all of the new "safety measures"
My point is, what the hell good is all of this going to do to stop this from happening in the future or even find out who did it? If they really want to find out who did it, what they should do is cancel everything. No open campus, no extra-curricular activities, no passes to the bathroom without an escort until someone is caught. Then EVERYONE gets really pissed off and someones gonna spill the beans. There is a 99% chance that more than one person knows who did this, so someone will tell if they get mad enough.
As far as stopping it from happening again, you CAN'T. Install metal detectors and bars on the windows. Fine. The old fire alarm drill seems to work pretty good. If somebody wants to do something they are gonna do it. You can't prevent it, so LEAVE ME ALONE!! I AM NOT A CRIMINAL
