Colorado's Columbine High School was evacuated today after officials received a bomb threat at 9:30 AM, evoking fear and panic in those who remember the tragic and surreal events that took place on the same campus on April 20, 1999 when two students Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold opened fire on teachers and classmates, killing 13 and wounding 24 before taking their own lives.
Students at the sprawling high school were taken to a park, and then to a nearby elementary school, at about midmorning as authorities brought in search dogs and bomb squads, students and parents said.
I honestly think it was God's fault. He really dropped the ball on the whole free will thing. I don't think he knew people were going to be such pricks.
Well isn't that just great.. Parents need to start spanking their kids again, that would fix everything. So was there even any cause for concern anyway?

Man, I used to hate when we'd get bomb threats. It sucked to have to bake in the sun for an hour because some kid didn't want to go to second block.
My dad gave me a note that if we had to wait outside for more than a half an hour due to any sort of evacuation, I had permission to go home. I never got to use the darned thing, though.

We had tons of them in high school. My senior year we had one every day of one week at exactly 8:45. Everyone knew it was bullshit, but they couldn't ignore them.

Man Im happy you all can joke and make fun about this. There are some of us who had friends that went there, and died.
Sometimes humor is the best way to cope with a situation. I don't think anyone here was, in any means, disrespecting the lives that were lost during the tragic shooting.
