Sorry this is going to be long. I tried to keep it short but....too many details.

There was a bomb threat at my son's high school yesterday. He actually wasn't there because he has been sick the past 3 days but I was going to send him today. 

 My son's friend found the note in the cafeteria and subsequently turned it into the office. Of course police were called and evacuation took place, bomb sniffing dogs were brought in,  etc. I spoke to this boy and several of my son's other freinds and all but one think they know who wrote the note. The note said ".....all n**gers should die.....I hope everyone else is okay but a bomb is going to go off at 12:30.....". He said the note looked like it was actually written to someone else and not left behind for the school to find.Like it might have just fell out of someones pocket or something. Being the overprotective mother that I am, I think of everything bad. That being said,  the note didn't actually state that the bomb was going to go off yesterday or any specific day, just a time. Now, I'm sure he probably meant yesterday but....what if? I'm terrified to send my son to school. Also, who knows what this kid is capable of? What if he brings a gun to school today? Or sets off a bomb today knowing the school now thinks it was just a scare?  We are a small town and don't have a lot of trouble so we don't have metal detectors and stuff in the school and we aren't really prepared for any type of situation of that magnitude.

Now, to get to why the kids think they know who it is. There is a new kid in school who has been homeschooled all his life (not that it matters but I have to wonder if the reason is because his parents are also racist and didn't want their kid associating with blacks). Anyway, this boy comes to his new school and automatically starts calling the black kids n**gers without hesitation. Well, he said it to one of my son's freinds (black boy) and ended up getting hit a few times. Then a few days later....a bomb threat against the "n**gers".  The boys also say this kid is a little weird and seems like he might have some mental problems.

So, all that being said, I believe I have a moral responsibility to talk to the principal about my conversation with the boys. I hate to make accusations and insinuations (I really, really, really hate it when people insinuate things) but this is very serious. Back in my day in high school (the same high school as my son)  we had a bomb threat via phone, we were evacuated for a short while, dogs were brought in and we went right back to class. But today, after Columbine and everywhere else, you just absolutely cannot be too careful.  And since the boys thought this kid "seems" have some mental probs, it automatically brought to mind the guy who shot up Virginia Tech. After the fact, people said there were "warning signs". 

I am however, a teeny, tiny bit hesitant because if this boy really did not write the note,(and the racial remarks just coincidently were made at the same time) I feel a little bit bad for what he will have to go through. But my love for my child and his friends is far greater than my feelings of sorriness (couldn't think of the right word) for that boy (especially since I have no love whatsoever for racists) so I definitely will be talking to the principal this morning. Besides, if this boy did end up doing something tragic in the future, I would not be able to live with myself knowing that I should have said something. Not to mention if my son were hurt or killed by him.

I was just wondering what others would do in this situation and if anyone has had any similar experiences.
