Clearly Karl Rove plotted this to distract from the administrations problems and the coming loss of GOP candidates in todays elections. I have no doubts.

I'm uncomfortable with this word. Isn't lockdown somethign we do in prisons?

Yes, and so the use of the term is quite accurate.

Schools have been locked down regularly since the Drug War went turbo in the 1980s. I remember this stuff happening quite frequently when I was in school.
