Typical of teens to blame the people who report that something bad is in the planning for reporting it. The girls could have been heroines if the rest of the students and the teachers had handled this differently.
The school authorities could have used the girls' example to teach responsibility and the difference between 'ratting' and 'notifying the authorities of a potential disaster.'
Gang mentality -- I'd give it a 95% chance of disaster once the boys got ahold of the guns and the ammo.
America really has lost its touchstone of truth, hasn't it?
