		<description><![CDATA[Parents at the school where I am employed are made aware during the beginning of the school year (if they attend PTA meetings, which is another story with in itself), The students are aware because it is practiced when we have fire drills and the like. Please note that the drills are timed. Service personal (Fire ) are notified in advance and are usually present and monitor the reponse time. There are several teachers on duty each lunch period should the students be outside and the alarm is raised.. We do not use the PA system to announce an emergency. an alarm is sounded which can be heard throughout the school and the immediate outside surrounding area? (This is very effective) Should the power be out we do have access (without using personal cell phones) to reach 911 and seek further assistance if needed, we have Security Guards on site 24-7 and there are also other members of staff that like myself are trained in Crisis Intervention.

I have given you a basic outline and with outmost respect I would rather not share the full details within a public domain for obvious reasons with the biggest concern being sited as posing a &quot;threat to security&quot; (We woudn&#039;t want the wrong person to see it). 

If you live here I cannot explain why YOUR Child/Childrens school have not shared their plans.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Thanks for the clarification and the confirmation but can you tell us how it a lock-down is carried out? In school class would seem pretty straight forward with an announcement made over the internal school PA, but how would it be done during an out of school period such as lunch break? Question #2 Why is it that we as parents or the students don&#039;t know about those lock-down plans?
Please no answers about :It is a secret!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Thanks for the correction but my source was dozens of internet web pages and also as a hand gun user.
Don&#039;t know where your info source is from so it would be helpful for me to correct the dozens of web pages, gun professionals and gun clubs that posted the info online.
Google it for yourself and see that the average distance for a handgun depending on the bullet type and size is 1 mile.

		<description><![CDATA[@ Scott and we all know what &quot;thought&quot; made a man do...Yes their job may be hard but they need to brainstorm and think of strategies that they can use and put them into practice..In their being over zealous at times they create problems for themselves when arresting or trying to solve a crime in the hopes of getting someone convicted.. They go about it in the wrong way and in their haste the person gets off on a technicality..My son was arrested one time and when I got to the police station I asked the officer why was he arrested and he replied that he fit the desription of the perp. I than asked how so? he replied that the individual was wearing a black jacket with a hood (that&#039;s what my son was wearing at the time)I looked at him and asked him if he wanted to put the cuffs on me as I was wearing a black hooded jacket? he couldn&#039;t even respond because he realised how silly that sounded. he called out the back and my son was released immediately..So sometimes they do get a little &quot;excited&quot; as with this case..]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[while the intention is good, your numbers are far off.

most handguns have an effective range of about 50meters. the potential killing range is a bit more than that, but a far far far cry from 1m.

the closest you&#039;d get to that range would be some form of semi auto assault rifle with an effective range of 700-800 meteres., about half of a mile. unless they had a purpose made long range rifle, the thought of 1-2miles is no where near reality.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[wlel i havent been rammed into a wall before, no, but i have been arrested when walking home once. i had a limp (previous ankle injury), was drunk (hence walking). There was an accident where the driver fled... i happened to be somewhat nearby and was apicked up. so yes i know what its like. luckily for me, the police station that i was released from what closer to my house then where they picked me up.

yes i agree that they probably did use too much force on this, judging by the pic, and they should apologize in some form, but i think for people to cry out a big WTF when they at the time thought they may be arresting the actual shooter, it think they should get a little more empathy. Everyone assumes their job is easy, cut/paste, etc.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[MY IMPORTANT LETTER
Wow! A handgun bullet can travel from 1 - 2 miles away.  When a lot of people don&#039;t want to get involved by speaking up/helping the police/crime stoppers etc. or they say &quot;Let them keep shooting each other and when everyone is dead then you can lock up the last one standing&quot;, please remember this: You can be 1- 2  miles away out in your yard hanging up clothes or cutting grass and &#039;bang&#039; you are shot by a stray bullet.
Scary thought when you imagine during the lunch break, little nursery children playing in the school yard &amp; the hundreds &amp; hundreds of children at the other area schools (T.N.Taten, Purvis, Bda Institute etc.) in the immediate Warwick shooting 1 - 2 mile bullet travel shooting radius area.
I don&#039;t know what emergency plans they have (if any) to round up hundreds of children and get them to safety when they are already outdoors any and every where on the school property and how long would it take 10 - 15 mins??. Unless there is a special siren. My child attended one of the schools I mentioned and they have never being told of any &#039;special lock-down rules to follow. I have seen and conducted school fire alarm evacuation drills and they always move like snails and take it all as a big joke. Mind you the adults in a lot of Hamilton businesses also do the same thing. Bernews reader&#039;are Userious quoted:
January 6, 2011 at 7:28 am @ Seriously Speaking ALL schools have Emergency Procedures implemented should such events as this occur. &lt;- where did they get that info??
For parents peace of mind, it would be interesting to hear from someone official in Education system of the emergency lockdown plans both for children in school and outdoors. We in Bermuda grow up believing a lot of &#039;myths&#039; that was handed down from grandparents to parents to children etc and take it as fact&#039;s.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Scott in a related article it stated that the colour of the bike was the same..it has happened..yes they pick randomly at times..if it has never happened to you than you wouldn&#039;t know...The bike to my understanding although not the same make as the one the perps were riding it was the same colour....At the end of the day the police are going to say what they wanna say and the witnesses are going to do likewise..I was not there and neither were you but hopefully in time the truth will reveal itself..If the young man in question was wrong than that was his consequence..but if the Police are in the wrong will they publically admit it?? I don&#039;t know if you are aware but if you use something to inflict harm or injury on another  person than the object you use is now considered a weapon.. in this case the police car was the weapon...I mean like really crossing in front of someone INTENTIALLY? They could have killed him! Top and Bottom line!!! and than what will they have told his family..he didn&#039;t stop so we ran him over..sorry for your loss! Come on people if you don&#039;t want to be honest in your postings at least be honest with yourself..if it was a family member that you were close with you would be singing a different tune..Like I said I was not there but if it happened as people say that was a foul thing to do!!!]]></description>
		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Scott in a related article it stated that the colour of the bike was the same..it has happened..yes they pick randomly at times..if it has never happened to you than you wouldn&#8217;t know&#8230;The bike to my understanding although not the same make as the one the perps were riding it was the same colour&#8230;.At the end of the day the police are going to say what they wanna say and the witnesses are going to do likewise..I was not there and neither were you but hopefully in time the truth will reveal itself..If the young man in question was wrong than that was his consequence..but if the Police are in the wrong will they publically admit it?? I don&#8217;t know if you are aware but if you use something to inflict harm or injury on another  person than the object you use is now considered a weapon.. in this case the police car was the weapon&#8230;I mean like really crossing in front of someone INTENTIALLY?

		<description><![CDATA[you really think that if that boy had something to do with the shooting would actually be riding around in cedar hill, i swore on the news they said the rider rode over kyber path furthermore the public may complain about shootings as well as unsolve murders its not right they stopped him the way they did.

what if he would have ended up dead, the BPS would have blame the whole thing on him when they are really unsure if his even a suspect???]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[they never asked him to stop they saw him on his bike wearing black and assumed he was the shooter so they rammed him over, if any thing he was one of the individual getting shot at!!!

as for nye, the police never had any sort of sirens on to indicate the rider to stop the car slammed into them from behind causing them to hit the paddy wagon. its crazy how they pulled them over on front street a few mins before and they use they&#039;re sirens at that time, and what you think the rider had did; THEY STOPPED FOR THEM!!!


BPS cause they&#039;re the law they feel that they can do &amp; get away with any/everything, people look at things in one directions instead of 3 and do to the fact that there the law the public will always be in the wrong??? 

people wonder why its alot of unsolve murders going on in the island!!

Don&#039;t place me in the &#039;excuse makers&#039; column. There are plenty of them here. I&#039;d like to see some serious penalties for offenses as listed but you &amp; I both know that flogging, public or in a prison setting, is not going to fly.

There has to be plenty of penalties that are unpleasant enough to make the offenders have second thoughts of doing them the first time never mind multiple times.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[LET THE PUBLIC TAKE A VOTE ON MY RECOMMENDATION: - and VOICE YOUR OPINIONS IN PUBLIC, UNTIL THESE LAWS ARE PASSED! anyone who thinks these are extreme is a wimp, who has more favor for crime than a passion for justice.

1. Punishment for posession of a firearm, even with no ammo - 25 years MANDATORY IMPRISONMENT, with at LEAST 10 years SOLITARY CONFINEMENT without ANY CHANCE of parole or lessening of sentence severity.
2. Punishment for posession of an automatic firearm, even with no ammo - 50 years MANDATORY IMPRISONMENT, with at least 20 years SOLITARY CONFINEMENT without ANY CHANCE of parole or lessening of sentence severity.
3. Punishment for posession of live ammo - 5 years MANDATORY IMPRISONMENT for EACH and EVERY bullet in posession. If you have a huge magazine of ammo, pay the price with life in prison. What are those bullets for, besides taking lives anyways?
4. Punishment for gang membership - MANDATORY 5 years in prison, in combination with a curfew of SUNDOWN every day for 10 years after release from prison. If in violation of the curfew, sent to prison for ONE YEAR MANDATORY for each day curfew is offended. We all know how these wannabe gangsters BRAG about not being scared of prison time. 
5. Punishment for gang intimidations, initiations, extortions - MANDATORY 10 years in prison, with at least 5 years in solitary confinement.
6. Punishment for shooting a firearm in ANY vicinity, regardless of how many people were there, innocent or not innocent people - 50 YEARS MANDATORY IMPRISONMENT per bullet fired, with at LEAST 10 years SOLITARY CONFINEMENT without ANY CHANCE of parole or lessening of sentence severity. Cut these fools no slack.
7. Punishment for shooting a firearm and injuring ANYONE, regardless of innocence or guilt, or severity of injury - 50 YEARS MANDATORY IMPRISONMENT per bullet fired,with at LEAST 10 years SOLITARY CONFINEMENT without ANY CHANCE of parole or lessening of sentence severity in combination with one finger amputated for each bullet fired. YES. Who will argue no?
8. Punishment for shooting a firearm and injuring ANYONE, regardless of innocence or guilt, and thus causing that victim to be grievously harmed - 50 YEARS MANDATORY IMPRISONMENT per bullet fired, with at LEAST 10 years SOLITARY CONFINEMENT without ANY CHANCE of parole or lessening of sentence severity, plus the amputation of one entire hand, and the amputation of one finger on the remaining hand for each bullet fired. If you run out of fingers, you amputate toes. 
9. Punishment for causing the death of anyone, whether they were innocent or guilty, whether intentionally or by accident, by using a firearm - mandatory 50 years in prison, with at least 25 years SOLITARY CONFINEMENT without ANY CHANCE of parole or lessening of sentence severity - and both hands are to be totally amputated. If two people were killed, then a foot is to be amputated. If three people killed, then both feet amputated. The wheelchair will be donated. For each additional murdered victim, another section of limb is to be amputated - up to the elbow or knee for example. 
10. Involvement in covering up any such criminal behaviour, will receive punishment of PUBLIC WHIPPING. There shall be 10 furious lashes on the back, just like in the Middle East, for every minor charge, and for a major charge there shall be 20 lashes. The lashes must draw blood. 
11. I also further suggest anyone guilty of the first 9 offenses listed above be given 10 to 20 public lashes of a similar manner in public. Carry the scars of your shame. Go to the beach, we know who you are. Enjoy.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So people complain that police aren&#039;t doing anything to stop the shootings...yet, when they decide to stop a bike suspected in a shooting, people complain about how they decided to stop the bike...the police car was responding to the shooting and saw the bike (read the police statement and yes, I&#039;m sure there will be a comment that it is lies) which they thought was involved in the shooting...a shooting were children and mulitple businesses are nearby...so who cares if they rammed the bike...they stopped it. And you can&#039;t just take note of the plate as someone mentioned, as most of the bikes involved in shootings are stolen, have fake plates or no plate at all. Yes I said they are not rocket scientists a little bit earlier, but they do have a brain.

Its also nice to see all the people with negative comments here have nothing to say on the other article about capturing 2 robbers and retreiving a gun...

In these times, everyone has to get off each others backs and support the work people do to keep us safe. If someone decides to run, they are guilty of something...so let them feel the consequences.]]></description>

My suggestion to you is that if you can&#039;t handle reponse to your comments maybe you should just read the articles and don&#039;t comment..because obvioulsy you can&#039;t handle it..I on the other hand I will continue to post as I have no fear or retribution or reprisal and I can handle constructive crticism..I am allowed to voice my opinion just as you are quite free to voice yours.. Peace and Love and may you enjoy the rest of your day!!!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[well nowhere in the book of common sense does it say that when you see the lights and siren, drive faster and see how long you can stay in from of the emergency vehicle either..

you sound like a few friends of mine that read and read and take the word of law so literally, but try to ignore (for your own protection perhaps, or just to sound smart) the interpretation of the law to claim innocence or immunity. 

Someone shoots, runs, a cop see&#039;s him drop the gun the whole time into a dumpster, gets the gun but then in court because he didnt have a search warrant for the dumpster, the gun is ruled out and the shooter goes free. Sure a defence attorney would love this.. and while it does protect some offenders, when its so blatant in front of you, why try to act smart with &quot;theres nowhere actually written&quot;??

if a cop is buzzing lights behind you, and NOT passing you... then he&#039;s probably directing them AT you. To say i dont HAVE to stop may be fully legal, but unwise and gives probable cause for some other sort of crime.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Bleeding hearts... It never ceases to amaze me how people demand an end to all this nonsense and then get all bent out of shape when a &quot;person of interest&quot; in a shooting incident fails to stop and ends up with a Police Car parked on top of them. They should have stopped. End of story.

Too many of us aren&#039;t prepared to go the distance. Some a$$hole (possibly the same a$$hole) just opened fire in a public place with innocent bystanders, ACROSS from a bleddy nursery school and folks are up in arms about the way in which a person of interest was apprehended when they failed to stop?! God help us all if we are now putting the rights of individuals breaking the law (ie, person failed to stop)before public safety!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[getting a license number is stupid..if you could catch/arrest based just on that we&#039;d be laughing at criminals. but stolen bikes, changed tags, borrowed bikes, or just someone that hides after their own bike is noted.. doesnt mean squat.

he shouldnt have been hit so  hard perhaps in hindsite, but at hte time a guy speeding away from police right after a shooting is NOT the best action to do.


as for the nye, from what i saw of the pic the guy slammed right into the side of the paddywagon?? did the paddy run a red light? or was it the bike drivers fault?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[@ 177BC you know full well (even those with their heads buried in the sand and in denial)that the Police will turn it around in their favor to try and come out smelling like a rose.. But at the end of the day, as I posted above, two wrongs don&#039;t make a right!! Yes the rider could have/should have pulled over, but the police could have just taken his plate number..BOTH of them put the safety of the public at risk. The liability does not just fall at the feet of the rider..]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I am not sorry to say this, but you are a moron for accusing me for being racist. I never mentioned or hinted at any race or skin color. 

Shame on you!!!!!! I will not even waste my time any more on this....

and anyone who mentions suffering of ancestors at a time like this is just pathetic... just keep your lips closed on that topic.. what a joke.

criminals are criminals regardless of race. if you enjoy harming others or killing, then you should be harshly punished. that is not racist. 

DUH

and by the way... if you race through a Police Blockade and ignore to stop which iS LAW BY THE WAY...then you are a reasonable suspect and they will chase you...
if you drive like an idiot and get chased and it is dangerous, BLAME YOUR DANGEROUS DRIVING!!!!!! 

how many people will attack the police for doing their job???? heavens sake!!!!

THANK YOU ALL FOR THE STUPID COMMENTS]]></description>
