My corporate security group actually sent out an alert this morning about the uptick in hoax school shootings and the possibility that an actual event manifests itself.

Basically just getting us to keep our heads on a swivel if we’re on/near a campus for any reason.

Cop just reported a misplaced drop ceiling tile thinking someone may be up there. I feel like hollywood has ruined people.

Why do we have to say "active shooter"? Why not just shooter?


Active shooters are much harder to apprehend than a sedentary shooter......

Fox16, which appears to be real, says police say no evidence of a shooter

The one at USC was a hoax, an actual hoax- not a mistake. Just read about it.

It's a terrible combination of news personnel who don't give a shite if it's real or not because it gives them clicks so they'll push out the story without a second thought and dumbass college kids who believe everything they hear and can't spread a rumor fast enough.

Just look at this thread. Every single report from someone "on campus" was completely wrong.

Police presser just said, no shots fired, no injuries, no crime scene

It was a hoax.

Yep. It was a hoax. Some Arkansas kids at a restaurant nearby are saying Tennessee had a hoax too?? That could be a rumor. Who knows.
