Yesterday, September 11th, 2024, a post on Snapchat was made about one of the schools in my county. It mentioned a (what i'm guessing is a) gun threat to a middle school about 12 minutes away from where i live. I don't have Snapchat, so i didn't know about it until today. Today, 3 more threats were made. Two of them were middle schools, 1 was a high school. One of the last 3 were directed toward my school. I had a very hard time concentrating or doing anything, but I did make it through okay.
Honestly, it was scary. You didn't know if it was fake or if it was a real threat (it was probably fake because... well... who would tell someone that they would shoot up a school?). You could just not attend school, it would be counted as an excused absence, but my mother told me that I should. I did, and... nothing happened. I honestly thought I was going to die, I was confident, but I'm still here. This is probably going to scar me for life. It wasn't a big deal, but I'm a person with ADHD and Autism, so I have hard times with going through things like this. If you live in Indiana, you might of heard about this, maybe it even happened to you.
TL;DR:
A gun threat towards schools happened 4 times in my area, one of them was my school, and I thought I was going to die. I didn't, but I felt like I died emotionally.
