Tennessee; Teachers stage fake gun attack on elementry students
Posted on May 14th, 2007 by bile Categories and Tags: Uncategorized, Bill O'Reilly, guns, schooling, TennesseeFrom CNN.com:
Staff members of an elementary school staged a fictitious gun attack on students during a class trip, telling them it was not a drill as the children cried and hid under tables.
What the hell were they thinking? They’re 6th graders… not that it matters how old they are. I can only hope that those who came up with this idea were stoned, drunk or otherwise altered.
This isn’t as bad as that high school which a few months few years back was raided by local police, guns drawn, searching for drugs. At the moment I’m not able to find any article about it but it was captured on the school’s cameras and was simply outrageous. Bill O’Reilly had a decent piece on it but I’m not finding anything about it on his site.
UPDATE:
xyz found what I was looking for at CNN.com. It happened in November 2003. I’m not sure why I only heard about it a few months ago. Seems unlikely that The O’Reilly Factor episode I saw was a rerun from back then…
UPDATE 2:
The case was settled in July, 06… seems I was off by a few months :-/

this might be the one youre referencing:
school raid
im pretty sure its the same one i read about 2 months back, but the incident happened in 2003.
im trying to research what triggered the article to resurface recently.
