It's impossible to predict exactly when. Could be tomorrow, could be in a few years. If you mean the ones with disturbed students I'd say somewhere between a few days and two years. If you mean acts of violence of one student against another in typically gang-related activities, I'd say seven days at the most.

Who knows. I know schools in California today were on lock down because some guy threatened a massacre in larger proportions than at VA Tech, to paraphrase his threat. And yesterday, even here in central Ohio, schools were on lock down because I guess some kid brought a knife to his school threatening people.

Yeah, the thing about bigh, well-publicized incidents like Columbine and VT is that they spawn copycats, people who try to outdo the infamous and becoem notorious themselves. Thankfully, most are quickly caught.

There have been at least two lockdowns & one student arrest here in Alabama this week. One of them was about 15 miles from where I live.

It is impossiable to tell with the kids today. And the same thing happened at BU when a kid threated the school with a VA Tech type message.

Our school increased security on friday because some kid threated our school. 24 people were arrested. Mostly freshman, which is where the shooting was supposed to take place. 18 of them were arrested for having drugs on them, not being involved with the shooting.
