Isnt it going overboard now with all these threats to schools and the children therein? - The big events proposed and almost promised post 911 seem to have faded in favour of small local events designed to increase the ingredient of fear - or something more sinister in the agenda of the current Govt and the world domination process.
I have previously commented in Joes article that this perpetuation must wear very thin simply on the repetitive MO - are we saying yep, & americans are that dumb they're going to accept it again. These ritualised attacks on kiddies are going to bring something bigger because if it were adults - least would care but the kids well Im pretty sure if it were me and mine I wouldnt be taking this lying down.
