POWAY, Calif. - A student at Twin Peaks Middle School in Poway is in custody, suspected of threatening a mass shooting at the school.

According to the San Diego County Sheriff's Department, on Saturday morning, deputies from the Poway sheriff’s station learned about an email threat that had been sent to an administrator at Twin Peaks Middle School the night before.

"The threat indicated that on Monday, Feb. 11, 23 students and a Twin Peaks Middle School teacher would be shot," said sheriff's Capt. Bill Donahue, who is with the Poway sheriff's substation.

Surrounded by the superintendent of the Poway Unified School District, along with Poway's mayor and the head of the school board, Donahue said the person who sent the email talked about having the firepower to carry out a devastating attack.

"The email made reference to 3,000 rounds of ammunition as well as numerous firearms," he said.

The boy has friends who have parents with guns also. And the neighbors may have guns
along with their relatives and coworkers. The police have no right confiscating any guns.

When the police respect no laws and are not held accountable we have a serious problem.

The cops had no business seizing the firearms of the parents. They were properly and legally secured. The only "threat" was the child who was taken into custody and removed from the premises. There was no justification for seizing the firearms. Typical abuse of authority by the police.
