This is finally on Fox, buried near the end of the article. I posted the origional report that was presented on Fox News TV on the Shep Smith program as I heard it but the Mod. removed it. I tried to post it again in a news flash from the Huffington Post (usually not accurate but 100% correct on this issue and the Mod. wouldn't accept my post. SEE, I didn't post crap!

I heard the same doggone thing on CNN just now (8 o’clock ish Texas time).

Security guy didn’t show up.

Cops got to the school within a minute.

Question :

How far away is the nearest police station?

Apparently students were openly concerned about this kid as far back as December 15th.

because he was snowed in. Taft police officers arrived within 60 seconds of first reports

Was the guard a union member, it was snowed in but cops arrived within 60 seconds. something doesn’t add up.

I wonder why it is that if someone draws a gun in crayon there is a zero tolerance policy about it, but when multiple kids alert the school that there is a mentally deranged kid talking about murder, it goes unnoticed.

Because, to a liberal, one is imagined, the other is real.

Snowed in???? Bullshit. Taft is a bit SW of Bakersfield CA at 950 feet
elevation. They rarely get ANY snow there and NEVER enough to
cause ANYONE to be snowed in.

Taft is in the foothills, which sort of by definition means there are nearby mountains. The report says the guard was snowed in, not the school.
