<p>At my school, there was a writing on the wall in the boys' bathroom that said, "December 21st, the day of reckoning, everyone will die." A lot of people think it's a joke and is still going, but I'm freaking out trying to get everyone to stay home. It's a really smart schoole, but it's in the ghetto. Am I wrong to be so worried? Btw, I'm not going tomorrow.</p>
<p>was it inside a stall because the "reckoning" might mean something else. Did you tell a teacher or a counselor.</p>
<p>the police are having an investigation right now. I checked dictionary.com and it said day of reckoning means the time when one is called to account for one's actions, to pay one's debts, or to fulfill one's promises or obligations.<br>
It scares the hell out of me and i don't want to risk my life over a few tests.</p>
<p>well i wouldn't go to school neither. did you tell your mom or dad?</p>
<p>ya, they're the one's who told me i shouldn't.</p>
<p>oh ok, then dont go tomorrow, what school or what city is the school in?</p>
<p>is this in the US?</p>
<p>makes me think twice about going to US schools....</p>
<p>Yes, it's in Florida. It's in Riviera Beach. It's a very bad location, but one of the top 10 (Accoridng to Newsweek) in the nation. I think ppl dont want to miss cuz many are scared they're gonna miss imnportant info....</p>
<p>How much do you wanna bet nothing will happen. Just my 2 cents though.</p>

<p>I love that. Yes, definitely base your opinion of all schools in an entire nation based on one incident in one school.</p>
<p>im pretty sure nothing will happen, but better to be safe than sorry.</p>
<p>Yea...if you told the right people and you aren't going to school, that shouldn't be an issue.</p>
<p>were there any results of the investigation?</p>
<p>probably nothing's gonna happen either way tho.</p>
<p>and 99% of school shootings/threats/other violence I HEARD OF was in the US. this adds to the list.</p>
<p>so was there a shooting?</p>
<p>something like that happened at my school.. actually it happened like 3 times in 3 weeks.. nothing happened.. actually it said " the school's gonna blow up by 2 oclock today" and of course being our school, we went on lock down and didn't get everyone out of the building til 215.. even though it said the bomb would go off at 2.. but we did get lots of different security measures when we went back to school and they were wickedddd annoying</p>
<p>there was no shooting, but my friends who went to school said that there was less than half the school there.</p>
<p>haha
what did you do instead of going to school swaim2daend?
I remember the day after anna nicole smith died, the fire alarm was pulled about 10 times for her memory, at least according to the kids who pulled them. It was great for the students but bad for the teachers. Too bad we cant do that anymore, they installed cameras at our school.</p>
<p>A similar situation happened at my school last year as well. Half the school was gone that day, and this school is also on the top 10 in Newsweek Rankings, and is also in Florida.</p>
<p>yeah
my school is ghetto
haha</p>
