California student in custody after email warned of mass school shooting
a 12 year old student has been arrested for sending an email to a school administrator warning of a mass shooting. This email was sent on Thursday and stated that on Monday February 11 that 23 students and a teacher would be shot. In light of recent events this threat was obviously treated very seriously. The police identified a suspect and executed a search warrant on his home and in the process confiscated several servers, rifles, handguns, and ammunition. The teacher who wishes to remain anonymous for their own safety says that they are on “high alert” after receiving the email. The student was taken into medical custody to evaluate his condition and it has been determined that no one else was involved in the threats.

Terrorist threats executed or not are considered felonies in the state of California and the district attorney will review the case.

This is an example of what I believe is a psychological chain trigger. The media hype about the recent mass shootings has triggered dormant murderous tendencies in mentally unstable people, driving them to at least consider action. It is my hope that I am incorrect about this trigger because if I am correct then there could be an influx of mass shootings in the United States of America regardless of gun control laws.
