It is interesting to me how people react differently to similar things. You seem to be taking this in stride, as would I. Just let it runs its course so long as it doesn't involve me.

The day before yesterday there was a situation in the town I grew up in where a guy was seen walking down the street about a half mile from a school carrying a rifle. Someone saw him and called the police. One cop went to find the guy while another went to the school and put them on lockdown before joining the other.

They talked to the guy who turned out to be an older guy who was taking the rifle over to his son's place because his son wanted to borrow it to hunt with. The guy doesn't drive so he was walking. So it was no big deal, everything was over in 15 minutes. Freaking Facebook erupted with locals bitching about what an over reaction this was and how insane it was the the police would do such a thing. You would think the town canceled Christmas and took everyone's guns away.
