> TikTok trend threatening school violence <

TikTok is owned by the ChiComs. Could that have anything to do with this? No, of course not. The ChiComs only want what’s best for the United States.

” . . . are not considered credible . . .”

I can’t give you a list of anything that consistently is. This should be an understood caveat appended to everything.

” ...are not considered credible....”


I’m sure they aren’t...until something does happen in one of the thousands of schools in this country and then people will say, “Why wasn’t the threat taken seriously?”

Two local high schools closed yesterday because of this. I consider it a terrorist threat and TikTok needs to be held accountable.

—way for kids to get a day off

—comes after MI school shooting; one TikTok-er said it could help prevent possible shooting rages by having school day cancelled

—memories of Dec of 2012 when Sandy Hook shooting
took place on a Fri just before Christmas

In many places parents are probably getting emails about how there will be a heightened police presence in schools today even though threats may not be credible (one here in Beverly MA was posted to a local facebook group)

On the one hand, giving the little b******* this kind of power is probably a bad idea. On the other, it only takes one mental defective in the Tik-Tok-verse to go sideways. And I’m betting there are lots of them. Be it students or administrators, the trend has been toward the inmates running the asylum.

We got this alert both for the pubic schools and our private school. Both mentioned the “incredible” part.

It wasn’t until our private school message that I understood it was more generalized nationwide.

Which makes me shrug my shoulders….just how well coordinated are these morons to handle the whole nation.

Is it posssible….that the increased watchfulness at schools will make the police neglect a REAL target type?
