Burlington Township, New Jersey was trying to prevent a tragedy like Columbine when it held its hostage drill on March 22.
The goal was to test lock down procedures, but some Christians in New Jersey and across the country are objecting to the school's portrayal of the suspects.

They could have saved some money by just showing that movie about the Munich Olympics. But that wouldn’t have allowed them to denigrate Christians.
Oh come on.
It had to be some group. I suppose they could have been Amish.
</sarcasm>
My thoughts exactly. The district has issued a “psuedo” apology. You can see it on their website here: http://www.twp.burlington.nj.us/.
There is nothing you can’t do to or say about a Christian today. Christians are the new “N-word”. They can be hounded, called names, laughed at, and in some cases, imprisoned for “hate” speech.
It’s open season.
People are too sensitive.
Maybe they should have gone with a group of “Smurfs” who “do not believe in separation of church and state”.
Bingo! We have a winner. Burlington Township used all the anti-Christian buzzwords then claimed they were just trying to be “generic”. Duh we didn’t think people would think this was about Christians.
Long live the Easter Bunny!
IMHO, this story needs to be posted on FR a few more times:

Oh yeah - Burlington Township also referred to the 2nd amendment in the terrorist scenario. Everyone “knows” all fundamentalist Christians are “gun nuts”. /sarc.
Ok, how do I do that?
And the criterion for choosing which group to use as a subject? This man could tell you all about it.
Oh, I see. You were trying to be sarcastic. ;)
More of the same.
trying to prevent a tragedy like Columbine...
The kids who killed everybody at Columbine and other such events were NOT Christian conservatives. They were KILLING Christian conservatives.
I’m tired of lefties and atheiests on both sides trying to cast this behavior on Christians.
The other poster is right on - it’s open season on Christians.
One of the SOBs even asked one of the girls if she was a Christian before he shot her.
Never! I can sit here with a perfectly straight face and tell you I have never posted anything sarcastic on FR.*
Note from upchuck's alter ego: But he does have his fingers and toes crossed.
Why even name them at all. If you are really afraid to offend Muslims, why not just make them generic terrosits instead of Christian?
interesting that it happened this of all weeks. Probably a coincidence, perhaps not.
