Atkins said law enforcement agents showed him the writings, which resembled "notes and a plan. ... It sounded to be kind of an advertisement or recruiting to meet a goal, and a goal was stated which was very negative about the school."[/quote:ba5cd]

Sorry - but better to err on the side of caution. . .was arrest a bit much, maybe. But NOONE here would be saying that if he DID go hogwild at his school - EVERYONE here would be saying "wtf why didnt they catch him in time. . .shoulda been on his ass. . .etc. etc." -

Folks seem to be sitting back going "fucking rednecks - its just writing. . ." - only takes ONE time folks for people to start bitching about "where was law enforcement" - "where were the parents". . .

No-Win situation here. . so fuck it - arrest the anti-social shit.[/quote:ba5cd]

If it were a story about shooting kids/planting bombs etc, something actually realistic, then there would be an issue if this kid wasn't caught out. But fuck, zombie stories?

What's he going to do? Defy the laws of science and make the dead walk the earth to go after his school mates....?

"Oh shit we should have seen this coming." - I don't think you'll get any of that.
