Leonardtown HS lockdown

They should have searched them before the kids went home.

But for some reason I feel as if this was a prank anyway.

If they had searched the lockers before the kids came home, the kids would still be there....as it was they got home 45 minutes after they usually do

News said that both eyewitnesses were questioned and they had the same discription of the kid and the story was the same, also

I think you're right. From remembering my high school days, the locker was school property and I think we were only allowed to keep in it what the school said we were supposed to keep in it.

But who actually keeps in a locker only what the school says too?

Well, I did because I knew my tender behind would get busted otherwise. Locker searches were a routine thing back in the 1950's.

I always put all the stuff that I didn't have a use for anymore....such as, old tests, notes from friends, stuffed animals, etc.

The locker is school property. I don't believe a warrant is required.

Depending on who's kids get caught with what, this should tie up the courts for awhile.. but honestly think this is something they should do 2 or 3 times a year, bring the kids out of the school and bring in the dogs!!

I hope daughter does not have Smirnoffs in her locker

that would be me when I was younger I put vodka in water bottles.

I am glad that everybody is safe.

My comment to those freaking out all day about the lack of communication is this.... When I was in school and we had bomb threats or whatever else may have happened, my Mom didn't know about it until I got home from school and I happened to say, "Hey Mom, there was a bomb threat or whatever at school today". SO, should we be thankful for the fact that communication (i.e., cell phones, internet, phone tree) has improved since back in the day, or would we be better off not knowing what could have been until it is done? People just need to chill.

seriously?.....wow that surprises me too...they should have had women patting down the girls!!!...Hmmm wonder how many women are SWAT?

Cheese and rice ... parents are already complaining about how long it's taking to get their kids home; now we're gonna extend that time a bit longer to organize a politically correct frisk line.

I hope those of you with loved ones in the affected schools got your kids home safely.

This whole thread is just F'in un-believable.

That is all.

I have a business to run.

Sounds like you should change directions and offer school security instead of electronics repair.

I goto the school... here's what we saw :-D

 

[onebdzee]

they finished the search at 6:30 of the school, the kids, the lockers and backpacks and found nothing

HAHA we were freaking for the most part. At least the people in my class were.

We had a lot of comedic relief though so we weren't too bad.

WTH is up with that??? WSMD has completely dropped the ball on this.

THEY dropped the ball? You of all people should know that is BS. Where is your up to the minute news report? Why doesn’t SOMD have more news other than this forum full of BS rumors? If the police and schools don't release info that is credible how can the radio? Should they just make it up like this forum did? Whatever, I would rather have NO news and a kid that is OK then the BS rumor mill that was in here today.

You know, I know every single one of those men (including the two in the picture) who were at the school today with one intent, and one intent only... to keep your children safe. Yes, they have scary looking equipment, but they need it to keep you and themselves safe. Be thankful you live in a community with some of the best trained and equiped special operations officers in the state. Thank one of them the next time you see them.

I personally thanked each one that I saw on my way out of the school today.

I got more information on this forum than I did on the news....people on here, like me, have kids in those schools that were text messaging, calling, or sending messages via the internet

When those parents were "updated" by their children they would post it on here and then you'd here it on the news about an hour later

I personally thank some of the people on here for keeping me updated on the status of the schools
