Parents and students in and Littleton, Colorado must feel like they’ve stepped back in time. Yesterday, Columbine and 21 schools in the area were placed on lock-down after authorities learned of a “credible threat” from 18-year-old Sol Pais. While it is never good to hear someone has issued a threat against our schools, this couldn’t have come at a worse time. This week marks 20 years since the tragedy that cost 13 people their lives and injured another 21 before the two shooters took their own lives. Now those who lived through that time, not to mention the students who have come up through the system since then, have to wonder if a repeat performance is about to take place. Needless to say, the media is playing into their fears with an abandon that should be condemned.
