Same threat received. NY concluded a hoax.

I don't know if this is a prank or not, but it's better to be safe than sorry.

When I was in high school, way back in the 1980's, some kid called in a bomb threat, and my school was evacuated.

So, those sort of "pranks" have been going on for decades.

But as I said from the very beginning, and I cannot stress this enough, they MUST take it seriously, and I am glad that they do.

If it is a hoax, it's one heck of a hoax. To take such drastic measures, seems like it isn't a hoax.

Many will be affected. The teachers, children, bus drivers, staff employees, parents (working parents must pick up their chidren), baby sitters, bus drivers, and others. I am sure the roads and freeways will be impacted with cars traveling to go and get the minors.

I have not heard any official calling this a hoax either.............

Too many unstable people in this country trying to kill us. They said 640,00 students will not be attending school today. They said someone stated it was in a backpack. We all know most children carry backpacks to school. It is better to be safe than sorry. It is sad that our county is not being protected. We have become reactive instead of proactive.

@redhead65, if a thread causes me angst, or holds the potential to, I just stay away from it. It makes for a more pleasant forum experience for me.

Our news reported that the NY threat was "similar", and kids were already in classrooms at 8am, so the decision was whether to evacuate or not. (I would think it would be a logistical nightmare!)

In LA, it was 5am and they decided to err on the side of caution. The shooting in nearby San Bernardino is on everyone's minds, so it's hard to criticize the decision.
