The Daily Wire ^

On Tuesday, the Superintendent of the Los Angeles Unified School District announced that all schools would be shut down today due to an unspecified terror threat. According to ABC News, that threat also carries “unknown credibility.” Bus drivers say they have been returned to their bus depots. LAUSD is the nation’s second-largest school district, with 640,000 students and 900 schools; children range from kindergarten to 12th grade.

Wow, this is majorly fubar.

In case you don’t know, LA unified is so huge, 900 schools, the district goes from down at the port in San Pedro all the way to the top of the San Fernando Valley. That is huge. Uuge.

Amish on Mormon crime is clearly getting out of hand. ;)

But, I’d rather read this headline than a body count of kids at the end of the day.

However, they’re certainly proving that terrorism works!

[DungeonMaster]

OMG I see what you did there. Kids with an unscheduled day off and nothing to do??????

Yes, I'm remembering my high school days a bit.

[Inspectorette]

Yes, it IS serious - when hundreds of thousands of people can be impacted on any given day at any given time.

[Responsibility2nd]

People had better get used to it.

Yep. At least until either Trump or Cruz is elected and we - as a nation - no longer have a Total P**** as president.

So was it an email, facebook post or tweet that created such panic?

[Scrambler Bob]

This was the last week of school, before being off till Jan 11.

To be really safe, just don’t go to school this week.

Lot’s of time to travel to jihad.

/s could be /school, also

[Perseverando]

Maybe someone has read about 2004, Beslan and fears a repeat, but in L.A. this time.

[DungeonMaster]

Not with the “at-home” kids banging on the bedroom door ;-)

You can't stop banging with banging.

[Yaelle]

Yeah, this is not one little high school where a kid doesn’t want to take his math final. THIS IS LIKE 12 DIFFERENT TOWNS CLOSING and we don’t close for weather EVER.

Win the Future????

[lee martell]

I hadn’t even thought of that.
I suppose scary times mean people will seek more personal comfort, which, in many cases, leads to babies.
Is that what you meant, or am I way off?

[halfright]

Thank you, Lord for Zip ties and duct tape.

[DBrow]

What a great way to target school buses full of kids!

[NativeSon]

is this a Poptart or similar toaster pastry related threat?

[PGalt]

Bitter clingers with their qurans, i.e.d.s?

[Rebelbase]

Flippant? The stupidity of this action is that an unverified twitter post, email, etc. caused a scholastic DEFCON 1.

Now we will see this same thing happen again tomorrow and the the next day and forever.

[House Atreides]

A temporary ban until the authorities can figure out what is going on? Isn’t that unconstitutional?

Nice insight...& excellent humor!

[Pilgrim's Progress]

Don’t schools teach climate change? Dang, then they should be closed the whole year out of terror. After all, the prez himself says that climate change causes terrorism.

Stop endangering these children’s lives . . . so they can be free to endanger ours!

[Uncle Miltie]

This is impossible.

The L.A. School District has several Varsity Teams.
