I hadn't come across this before, thanks for posting.
Even if he wasn't serious about the threat as the article says he claimed, it's good to see that other students are actually reporting such threats now. I wonder where the two guns in his bedroom came from.

There's been a couple of stories posted lately in this section of the forum about foiled potential school attacks. It'll be interesting to see in all of these cases what happens to the suspects.

Or where did he get the money to buy those guns?
