Monkey see, monkey do.

Yesterday, my school had a copy cat incident with a threat. For those of you who don't know; there have been a series of threats in the Chicagoland area for the past few weeks. I guess what I don't understand is this: If you are calling in or writing threats on the wall so you can miss school, why don't you just stay at home? I don't think people really think about the resources that are wasted everytime a fake call is made. I hope we realize that in the end we are only hurting ourselves. It reminds me of the story about the boy who cried wolf. When there is an actual wolf, no one will believe us.
