School bomb threats. A Joke or an Issue?

Tagged:

During my high school career, there have been at least 10 bomb threats called into our school.  They always happen to be around the time of mid-terms, or other big tests.  This is such a problem.  People think it is a joke.  During a so called "bomb threat" I realized, there is a big problem with the way things are done.  They always take us to the same places in the same order. Nothing is even searched in the school.  They take us to the auditorium, then the football field, then the parking lot.  Why?  If a student really wanted to plant a bomb, they would know exactly where to put it.  Ever since the Columbine incident, people think it is funny to play pranks at school.

They don't have anybody check the school out? Wow... report that! That is SO not legal!! When I was in school, that was fairly common too... but our school was thoroughly checked each and every time. It's sad... your school could end up being like "the boy that cried wolf." You'll get so many threats that nobody cares any more and when the real thing comes along... sad.
