TabbyCat Posted November 16, 2007 Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 I just came back from over there, and while yes, there's visible smoke above the fire, it's not like some GIANT plume that you can see from really far away. Maybe it was worse when it first happened, but now you're almost there before you really see it. Link to post Share on other sites
armymom Posted November 16, 2007 Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 not that I feel 'real' sorry for them..but they are kids and can you imagine how freaked out they are with the reality soaking in of their actions and what's coming?? Must be awful as I'm guessing they thought it was a prank...and now they are running from all the area police, etc.... They're 14. I have a 14 year old and she KNOWS the consequences of something like this. (consequences to as herself as well as property) Link to post Share on other sites

Jamieg Posted November 16, 2007 Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 Great, why are kids so dumb?

728b Posted November 16, 2007 Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 They're 14. I have a 14 year old and she KNOWS the consequences of something like this. (consequences to as herself as well as property) oh I agree completely...like I said,I'm not sitting back feeling real sorry for them or anything...just thinking how horrible it must feel to be a 14 year old running from the police!! Think their lesson in consequences of their actions was too little too late...so sad! I had a lesson taught to me once that I thought was good...I was in middle or high school. My Dad was teaching a class on consequences at church and was talking about it and off a sudden pulled out hammer and did just one small hit on a glass juice bottle...the thing went into a zillion pieces and glass went everywhere...even where he hadn't planned it to. The point was ONE poor decision will affect you in ways you never imagined and others you never planned or perhaps will ever realize will be affected. I don't explain it as well as he did, but boy as a kid...it made an impression... Link to post Share on other sites

JulieRhea Posted November 16, 2007 Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 Carley (6YO) said Mr.Wilder announced that no one could leave their classrooms for any reason due to a fire outside but it didn't seem to affect the little ones. Link to post Share on other sites
Mama Carol Posted November 16, 2007 Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 Purely coincidence about the gas meter being damaged? I mean, absolutely could be coincidence but still, with a fire that big and a damaged gas meter, the outcome could have been horrible. And that isn't real close to Hiram High, either. my guess is "hey wanna skip school and hang out in the chicken shed and smoke ?" but that's pure speculation. Link to post Share on other sites
