The UT threat seems to have been refuted as buildings are to be re-opened shortly.

Valpo also under alert, but seemingly not as serious, or they aren't taking the same precautions.

This is nuts. I don't want it to be credible but I also don't want it to be caused by some right wing lunatic. With that said, things seem to be self destructing right before our eyes...the economy, national security, civil unrest...what will crash next? Guesses anyone?

We're easy targets for this CSII. I suspect these are all just designed to terrorize without inflicting actual harm, but what else can the schools do? And the people making the threats know this....it should be an example of why we cannot pander to these people. I'm tired of the carrot and the stick....it's time for just the stick.

[Capitol Shock II]

I agree. It's time for the tough to get going. If you are one of the idiots making these threats you had better hope you phone number didn't get traced...and I know they have ways of tracing it.

They REALLY better hope Romney doesn't get elected.

Office building and downtown KC have a credible bomb threat with a person on the terrorist watch list. Suspect in custody.

How close are we to a 9/11 type country wide shut down? If one of these things turns out to be real..........


Of course, this could be a well organized set of fakes to get us off the scent of the real, as of yet unidentified threat.


God, I hope not.......

a 1 mile radius of airspace is off limits.

2 dead in a shooting at Kaufman Stadium.

[WuDrWu]

Okay, both of these things seem somewhat benign now. Kaufman Stadium appears to be an attempted murder suicide domestic type incident. The guy in custody on the bomb threat is a former Chiefs season ticket holder and borderline lunatic, perhaps in the mold of Crazy Mike.

Here's a story done back in 2003 on the KC guy. Very interesting read.

KC will win the Superbowl

LSU evacuated today after bomb scare called in.

Campus completely evacuated, all students, faculty, and staff still not back on campus yet.

There's this group of people who keep trying to impose their values on the rest of the world and if you don't go along they start saying they are being persecuted for being...what is the word? :lemo:
