Does anyone actually believe these children were doing anything other than fantasizing?? Come on. Ages 11 and 12 and they had scissors, a kitchen knife and a pizza cutter.

Seriously? Gonna off 15 people and drink their blood? And the police held a freaking press conference over this???? FFS

But, oh, we must "take every plot seriously"

Good grief

Next, we'll find out that these children had staplers concealed in various locations around the school...

Large-capacity staplers, at that.

I wonder if they were planning to cut up each of their victims into eight slices with the pizza cutter?

Very evil.

At what point do we cut the shit with this "take all threats seriously" stuff? 'Take all threats seriously' is the equivalent of zero tolerance, and we know how brilliant is that line of thinking. Use your fucking heads, for God's sake.

What if students in Ms. Scheinbaum's kindergarten class threatened to pee on everyone? Police searched and found stick figure drawings of stick figures urinating on other stick figures. Also found were several plastic gallon jugs, each filled to the brim with water. Some- the more deadly ones- were filled with Kool-Aid. Cherry Kool-Aid. These toddlers weren't kidding around, k? Let's go to the press conference, already in progress...

Oh, wait, this one will do:

Just be thankful that the plot was discovered in time to prevent a terrible tragedy!

I am trying to imagine how I would use my pizza cutter as an improvised weapon and honestly I am coming up short. Hell my pizza cutter has trouble with....pizza at times.

Well, if they had a slap-chop I'd know they were serious.

"ZERO TOLERANCE" baby!! Be careful with that POP Tart!!

Wait. Are we talking traditional pie cut, or party squares?

Well with the loa at least two or three will end up in prison at some point in the not to distant future. They will look back at this little dilio as and indication that it could be forseen. You can count on it.

A hand-drawn map of the school was allegedly discovered in the home of one girl with the words, "Go to kill in bathroom," written on top of it.

A map. Of a building they go to most days of the year(s)?
And I'm pretty sure that note says "Go to Bill in the bathroom." We also had a custodian named Bill when I was a teen.

Insanity. And it would appear the Peter Principal is at work here.

Wait, what? We're saying that girls armed with knives and other pointy tools can't cause grave bodily harm to other unsuspecting kids? Hmm, I could have sworn that so many here justify the ridiculousness of "gun free zones" in schools by pointing to all the other non-gun methods of harming someone using tools commonly available in schools, e.g. forks, pencils, baseball bats, etc.

I realize that the media sensationalizes stuff like this, and everybody wants their part of the fame, but two kids with weapons no matter how old they may be who have expressed an intent to harm others their age are indeed a threat to their peers. It needs to be taken seriously. National headlines? Maybe not.

Yeah, I take pizza cutters seriously, with their wobbly, dull wheel.

Sorry, but if you think these children posed any sort of threat...

Aint too much happening in Bartow these days. They have to invent crazy to try and keep up with Tampa

Three years ago we had two 12 year-old girls (using knives) nearly kill another young girl for "Slenderman".

The Florida girls had, at least, a butcher knife waiting for a victim in the bathroom. I'd take that seriously.

The pizza cutter does seem to add a circus flair to the situation.

Maybe, but I'm on the doubtful side. But, let's agree that there is a potential for harm that we should take seriously. Shut it down and shut up.

How about we not give eleveteen million other children an idea of how to get attention...

I hope they deployed their swat team and used flashbangs.
