While skimming through the posts on the Denver Post blogs, one caught my eye called Bomb scare debunked at Conifer school by Kirk Mitchell that talks about how a 14 year old boy was talking to a middle school student about how he was carrying a bomb in a case he was carrying, but none was found.

"he student allegedly told a middle school student on a bus this morning that
the case he was carrying had a bomb inside, Shires said."

This is an important issue that schools all over have to deal with, especially lately. There have been many attacks at schools with weapons over the past couple of years. An example that happened in Colorado was the Columbine attack, where two students came into Columbine High School with guns and shot several students and teachers. There have been several suspected bomb threats in high schools around my district. In my school, we are, like many others, trying to have the safest environment possible for students and making sure every necessary action is taken into place when threats like these are made. Around the world, people have to be careful where ever they are, school, work, or even the airport. These people that normally start the crisis need help and action should be taken to prevent them from getting out of control. Luckily in this case, there was no bomb in the case, only a camera, but if there had been, the whole school would be in danger.
