Ok, so I'm probably the only person who read the actual police reports and documents provided by the OP as opposed to rubbing myself into a misogynist circlejerk, and I have a few questions:

  • From what I understand, it seems like your friends were the ones making graphic and violent statements, and you were largely an innocent bystander who got grouped in with them by association. Would you say that's correct?

  • Because three of the four individuals accused were actually guilty of making threatening and graphic statements (you being the one who wasn't), would you say it is at least possible some of the accusers forgot or misremembered who said what? Everything they said about your friends was true; you were the only one who was the victim of false statements. I think most of the people in this thread don't realize that.

  • Do you regret associating with those students who made the comments? Do you think they deserved punishment for what they said?

  • Do you think the outcome may have happened differently had your friends not admitted to the police that they made such graphic threats and statements?

  • How do you think this situation could have been handled differently? What should schools do when faced with an accusation that a student has threatened violence?

Thanks for your time.

EDIT: Several people have pointed out how the girls "egged them on" or "provoked them" into making the statements. As a normal individual, I'm pretty sure I would not respond "yes" to the question "do you plan to bring a gun to school?" and then provide graphic details about what I would do. The boys were completely in control of their own responses.

EDIT 2: This guy does a great job of explaining just how misleading and confusing the OP's statements are.

If you could have given Kaylee a storyline they never got to film, what would it be?

Thank you for your answers. In light of your responses to my questions, do you think your post's title and some of your answers to others in this thread are somewhat misleading? Your friends admitted to making extremely graphic and violent statements, but many of the people in this thread are under the impression the entire incident was totally fabricated by this evil clique of girls. Would you consider updating your OP to clarify this?

Because his religious opponent, who is guaranteed to use his religious views in our secular government, is unwilling to debate him, presumably on this subject.

The answer is because Brad Bird doesn't want to make one unless he comes up with a good story.
