WASHINGTON — Members of extremist groups have signed up as school bus drivers in the United States, counterterror officials said Friday, in a cautionary bulletin to police. An FBI spokesman said "parents and children have nothing to fear."

Asked about the alert notice, the FBI's Rich Kolko said "there are no threats, no plots and no history leading us to believe there is any reason for concern," although law enforcement agencies around the country were asked to watch out for kids' safety.

Idiotic bureaucrats will get our children killed.

We need a federal law right now that mandates school bus drivers to be citizens. The question is, are there actually school districts in the US that hire foreign nationals (extremist or not) to transport our children? If so, this would be criminal negligence on their part considering our state of war. Someone please say it ain't so.

"... "parents and children have nothing to fear."

The media gets hysterical because of the increase in autism, but in the face of a true threat, we are told nothing to see here, move along.

"some school districts have reported an increased number of foreign nationals seeking school bus driver positions and a number of other unusual events."

I can just about bet some of those districts are here in Mpls. I am so glad my grandchildren do not step foot on a school bus. I pray for the ones who do.

And I sure would like to know what those "number of other unusual events" are. I guess they're just other things we shouldn't worry about. :(

Is utter stupid lunacy now a prerequisite for being hired in such posts?

Sheesh!

How many vivid, in quadruplicate warnings and plans do they need to be aware of???

[good old days]

And I sure would like to know what those "number of other unusual events" are.

So would I.

Yeah, I am certain al Queda has nothing but cuddly wonderfulness in plans for our children.

"I hate to characterize this as a warning," Kolko said, calling it an "informational bulletin." He said this was part of routine information sent to local law enforcement agencies that they should use only as background information while doing their normal duties.

"This is just an awareness issue for local law enforcement. ... It just makes them smarter," he said.

Bangs head on desk. Good thing that the Second Amendment stuff is coming to the forefront with folks like this protecting us.

Any where a Muslim appears there should be cause for concern. They should be watched as you would a wild animal.

Especially where I ran into one

--AT THE LAST--WAND STATION--before boarding the aircraft. I forget if it was in Phoenix or El Paso.

What an idiot place for one to be--REGARDLESS of all the rationalizations.

BESIDES ALL THAT--there was a certain meanness in his eyes that caused a bit of a shiver down my spine.

You keep getting mixed up it's the Amish again.

Helloooooooooooooo, is anyone home?

[NRA2BFree]

I about died when I pulled in to jiffy lube and "mohammed" was my mechanic..............

Oh my gosh, they're everywhere! Did you drive off? I would have! LOL!

Marking for later read. If parents don't get on top of this situation, shame on them.

When Beslan happened, I turned to my husband and said "It's just a matter of time."

Katherine Herridge calling them "foreign nationals" while reporting to John Gibson.

[Conservative4Ever]

I remember a post in the last month or two with a discussion on how extremists will attack our schools much like what happened in Russia. And we are not to be concerned? Give me a break!

[NRA2BFree]

An FBI spokesman said "parents and children have nothing to fear."

Riiiiight!! That's NOT comforting to them at all. IF they're so harmless, why is the FBI telling us that they're "extremists?" Why the heck are they even living in America?

My greatest fear is that they are going to pull off one or more attacks on our schools like they did in Beslin, Russia! God help us if they do! NOTHING in this world could be worse than that happening here in America!

[WLR]

Our Leaders and US Government Officials know damn good an well our children in schools are at great risk.. The Republi-Cons are just stupid the Demon-Crats are praying for a massacre to blame and ban firearms The Islamofacist human sacks of crap who murdered the children in Beslyn proved what kind of animals they are. It is arrogance that has prevented the US Government from hiring every retired peace officer they can get their hands on to secure the schools..malls and alike. The same is true for other infrastructre..There are thousands of reitred GIs whose skill sets are well suited to securing secondary and teritiary terrorist targets.. Again it is arrogance that will not send those retired GIs armed into the forrests,along places like Hover Dam and the Power Grid to defend the American People and our country.

I see this sentence so often these days I think it's just a watermark on FBI press releases.
