I remember the news being announced while there wasn't much information on what was happening, so there was a lot of guessing and speculation on what had happened. There was something on MSNBC last night that was a pretty interesting report on 10 years later.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16433234881645518118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8801568661427475473.post-9315529021429180082009-04-20T10:30:00.000-04:002009-04-20T10:30:00.000-04:00I was at the gym and the news reports came through...I was at the gym and the news reports came through on the TVs, which had the closed captioning on, so everyone in the gym was reading the tv and people kept reacting as they finished reading the screen.

I still don't believe that and would like to see some stats.Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09642349037037083358noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8801568661427475473.post-90985537285827583702009-04-20T09:54:00.000-04:002009-04-20T09:54:00.000-04:00I recall just returning home from school, turning ...I recall just returning home from school, turning on the TV and there it was on breaking news...two weeks later there was a copycat-ish bomb scare at my high school. <br /><br />http://www.cnn.com/2009/CRIME/04/20/columbine.myths/LeMieux*https://www.blogger.com/profile/15794750194182324256noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8801568661427475473.post-46244584304664791572009-04-20T09:52:00.001-04:002009-04-20T09:52:00.001-04:00This is weird.

I'd also like to point out that Oklahoma City Bombing and Waco also take place on either the 19th or 20th.Courtneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15146969435974379636noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8801568661427475473.post-72648334637959150342009-04-20T09:52:00.000-04:002009-04-20T09:52:00.000-04:00in my dorm in st. andrews, scotland, fielding ques...in my dorm in st. andrews, scotland, fielding questions from brits about what the hell is wrong with american kids.Danhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03720048914842589895noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8801568661427475473.post-34658412089254647822009-04-20T09:49:00.000-04:002009-04-20T09:49:00.000-04:00I was in my dorm, after my morning classes, and pr...I was in my dorm, after my morning classes, and probably blowing off the optional swim workout.

I think they thought it was one big American high school. I didn't know what had happened til I got back to Ohio a few weeks later. Then we had bomb threats every week til the end of the school year.erinnoreply@blogger.com
