I'm in suffield and just got an email from the superintendent telling us that they have police at all of the schools. Love having a school aged child in 2022 😕

Respect your decision fully and considering doing the same, but I have no doubt this is a response to the Bristol PD funeral. People are likely pissed about the highways being shutdown/blocked and what not.

Yeah that’s what I figured too but it only takes one crazy person to think that this is their chance, ya know?

Well what did you expect to happen when a huge percentage of police in this state previously announced that they will be busy at this day and time?

i honestly can't tell if you're joking.

​

the whole point of the lawsuit was that lots of people were stalking, harassing, and threatening sandy hook victims based on his comments. he was making $50M annually w/ infowars off those same people. He has/had a huge audience of people willing to do terrible shit.

Yeah, and I'm saying no one truly gives enough of a shit about Alex Jones to call in an active shooter threat to a school to protest his verdict, let alone 18 of them.

Conservatives have a bunch of whackjob talking heads they can cycle between. Alex Jones is just one of them.

I was actually just thinking to myself that I might do the same. I'm not willing to risk it.
