Schools were not locked down. Called the Board of Ed while it was going on and they didn't even have a clue anything was happening.

they usually lock down the school in the area that means all out side doors are locked and no one can enter or leave the school until it is again safe for them to do so

Id say someone was on the booze when this occured. Kentucky needs to eliminate all booze and these crimes will stop. Folks...booze causes all evil in this world...if all of Kentucky would go dry..then there would be no crime in Kentucky..please support your local community going dry...we do not need any more BOOZE
