School Shooting
Just recently, a man apparently came to my school. I don't really know who he is but they've been calling him Prophet Murphy. He's this guy that predicted the 9/11 fiasco and now he's like, come to my school and talked to the principal. I go to a high school in Vermont and he told the principal that there was going to be a shooting at the school this friday, the 13th of May. I'm a little bit confused because I don't know if the guy even came. It could all be just a rumor that some idot circulated. One of my best friends ex-boyfriend had told her that he planned on shooting up the school. I told her to tell the principal but I don't think she's going to. My other friend told her mom about the rumor and now she's not going to come to school because her mom's not letting her. Kristin's dad doesn't believe her and neither does mine. I just don't really know what to do. Should I take this seriously and cut school or something or is it nothing?

I think if he came to your school the principl probably contacted the police about it. If someone has said something about shooting uop the school though someone should be told about it. Better to be safe than sorry. It isn't something that a person should joke about these days. :)

He's just supersticious. May the 13th is on a Friday. So, he probably figures somthing bad is going to happen that day, being a Friday and 13th at the same time. This is weird...because if it does happen, then everyone will say he was right. But at the same time, if it doesn't happen because the principal took action some how, then he's wrong. Just because he was right once doesn't mean he will be right again. And he probably can't prove that he really did predict 9/11 anyway, so...I wouldn't cut school because it is merely Friday the thirteenth, but you really can't know how serious this guy is. Weird.
Then again, it could be that "Prophet Murphy" is planning it himself. So, I dont know about this. You should tell the police and try and find this guy.

it could just be a rumor but if someone made a threat i wouldnt go to school. i would take this seriously. i meant the prophet dude is prolly a bunch of bull but id still be scared to go to school and no one should be going if their safety is being comprimised like that. i would either have my parents keep me home (if possible), cut school, or hide all day long. please be safe, whatever you choose to do. <3

okay well first of all, you should probably find out if the rumor of that man coming to your school is true. go to your principal or a teacher/adult at the school you trust. most likely any adult will have been notified if it is true. if the rumor does happen to be true, i don't think it would be a bad idea to take some precautions. explain to your parents that you are scared to come to school. its better to be safe than sorry!

Even if someone was JUST joking about something like that, you should still take every precaution you can just to be sure that they WERE joking. If your parents leave to go to work before you get up to go to school, keep your alarm clock off and don't wake up. If they are there, get up a few times in the middle of the night make alot of noise, go back and forth to the bathroom a few times and in the morning tell your mom/dad that you feel like crap and you don't want to go to school. You should have your friend do the same thing. Complain of a stomach ache in the middle of the night and you felt like you were going to throw up but you couldn't. I would take it seriously if I was in your position, and your parents should too. It's not something to just be like "OH well they're kids, they're just joking". Something that serious should be reported to the police to be honest, regarless if you know it was a joke or not. You really need to do everything you can to try to get out of your school on Friday. That's not even the slightest bit humerous for whoever started that rumor, if in fact it IS just a rumor.

i think you should just avoid that day beg your mother if the guy predicted 9/11 then he is most likely right..dont take any chances. its friday the 13th too.i hope the best for you please answer this back.

now you gotta look at your self... are you a threat to someone.. would someone want to hurt you or no? in my opinion you need to tell your mom that you don't want to go to school because this may be real because if it turns out to be real then something bad might happen to you... it is friday the 13th too.. :o which is kinda weird.. but if you are having a gut feelign that something bad is goign to happen don't put yourself in risk and go to school... just to be safe even if it doesn't happen because it may and if it does and you do go to school your going to be screwed!!!
