Champlin Park High School (Mpls,MN suburb) went into lockdown Thursday afternoon after school staff thought they heard a possible gunshot.

That sound, perceived as gunfire, ended up being traced to a piece of wood trim around the lockers that somehow became unattached from the wall and fell to the ground.

Brooklyn Park police showed up at the school shortly before 1:30 p.m. on a “report of a disturbance,” according to an alert sent out by police. Officers found the school had been placed into lockdown upon arrival. The officers quickly determined the noise was not gunfire, but the wood trim that had fallen.

Police did clear the school as a precaution, but found no other issues.

I can't honestly blame them.

My theory on the Miami response: Florida cities and Florida citizens are used to "teen" violence being contained to certain areas. When the "teens" break containment, and go where civilized people like to imagine themselves, folks get a little riled up. I'm willing to bet that the response is to keep the "teens" in their proper area, and send a message.

Example: When the "teens" determined that Officer Derek Chauvin's family had a condo in Winter Garden, near Windermere, and there was a plan to "protest" there, the Orange County Sheriff's Dept. staged 250 or so riot cops with equipment at the high school three miles away. Guess what? No protest.

Some Florida cities, maybe a majority, are run by Democrats, but make no mistake, they know which side their bread is buttered on.

The "teens" were setting off fireworks, which prompted several "shots fired" calls to the police, who responded as if there were an active shooter situation.
