These things tend to encourage copycats, so it's not that surprising. |

Confirmed bomb threat
All students and staff evacuated |

| It's really sad that this is happening and also really sad that people get more up agitated when it's a "W" school. My son is at one of these "Ws" that hasn't had a lockdown and said yesterday it would never happen at his school. I said I am glad it hasn't but don't be surprised if it does. I think he'll be disproven soon. |

What do you expect the County Exec to do about people calling in fake threats to schools? |

The county exec can do nothing, but if a young person too young to be charged with swatting is found responsible for this, their parents should be assessed with a fine sufficient to cover county costs for the police response. |

+1. I didn't vote for Elrich, but, I don't blame him for people calling in bomb threats. |

Nah, an emergency response force benefits from regular practice. The payoff comes when a real catastrophe strikes and the well-prepared minimize damage. |

+1. If anything we should be thanking MCPD for taking each incident seriously. |

Where is the Superintendent of school district? She could put out a statement. The se threats have happened at many schools, especially this year. |
