A student at Milan High was arrested and charged with two felonies for a computer threat and a false bomb threat. This was his post "You don’t know what it’s like, I constantly fantasize of blowing up the wing as I walk away with the explosions behind me … .” A friend stated that was a bomb threat and he resonded: "Yes, let me make it more clear, I Anthony Caputo will bomb the new project based learning wing of Milan.”After that he added, “let the suspension begin! Maybe now I won’t have to come back to this god forsaken wing again.”
I believe threats like this should be taken seriously, but should have some boundries as far as teen saracasim. It should always be checked out in case of a mentally unstable person however. I believe he should be punished, but only with a misdemeanor because if you read the post you can tell this person wasn't being serious. He was only stating that he wished the school hadn't made the new wing. I myself have felt upset about school items in peticular as well, but I have the courtesy to not make such drastic posts about it.
