    Maybe I missed it, but I haven’t seen anyone on the left broadly claim, "Even if it happens, don’t talk about it." Even if one individual on the left made such a statement, it doesn’t represent the stance of everyone.

    The real issue is that the situation has already caused significant harm, not just to the Haitians but to all residents of Springfield. Bomb threats led to the evacuation of at least four schools, which have been closed for two days, and now Haitians are feeling unsafe.

    This is an unserious individual spreading a conspiracy with severe real-world consequences. As a leader with a substantial platform, it’s utterly irresponsible to propagate false conspiracy theories, especially when told they’re untrue, and to ignore the serious fallout.

    Researching a topic doesn’t justify ignoring the dangerous impact of making and repeating false accusations. Lately, the right has embraced a troubling approach—disseminating baseless claims and then scrambling to find evidence to back them up. Serious and responsible people would conduct their research first and then make informed claims.

    Bomb threat forces evacuation, closure of at least 4 schools in Springfield

    A day after a bomb threat caused city hall and several other buildings, including Fulton Elementary School, to evacuate, another threat has been reported and at least three schools in the Springfield City School District are being impacted.


    The email threat was sent to local media outlets, including WHIO-TV.

    News Center 7 was there at Perrin Woods and Snowhill Elementary when some students were evacuated to an alternate location Friday morning where a controlled release of the students. Other students were picked up by their parents after learning of the threat.

    In addition to that, Roosevelt Middle School was closed before the beginning of the school day “in relation to the information received from the (Springfield Police Division).”

    Bryan Peterson went to drop his granddaughter off at Roosevelt Middle School but learned that the school was suddenly closed.


    “It’s a new world we’re living in,” Peterson said. “Crazy, you know, you just deal with it.”

    Cliff Park High School, which is not part of the Springfield City School District, was also named in the threat.

    In a social media post, officials said that they were following law enforcement’s recommendation to evacuate the school.

    “We apologize for whatever inconvenience this causes but we have to make the best decision for the safety of our students, staff and families. All students currently in the building will need picked up and signed out,” the post stated.

    Clark State College also closed the Brinkman building and canceled classes and activities in it on Friday due to the “safety shutdown in downtown Springfield.”

    As reported on News Center 7 at 6:00, Perrin Woods Elementary School was featured on News Center 7 last month for their program where students learn both English and Spanish throughout the day. Principal Rebecca Warner said she hoped this would help bridge the gap with non-English speaking students and their families.

    “I think that’s a really, really neat opportunity to make those parents feel more comfortable, engaging with the school and knowing that we’re ready to invest in what their children bring to the table,” Warner said.

    It came as the district has worked to adapt to its growing population of non-English speaking students. But with school closed, no one is in class.

    “You just deal with the day as it comes,” Peterson said. “Yeah and try to be safe and smart.”

    Do you have insight info on who made the bomb threat? It seems like you are implying you know.

    Vance and Trump told me it was ATW, but don't worry, I don't believe the crap coming out of those two mouths.

    More bomb threats hit Springfield, Ohio, after Trump elevates false claims about Haitians

    Two hospitals sent into lockdown, government buildings shut down and local schools evacuated

    Kettering Health Springfield was one of the medical facilities targeted, with officials later saying they found nothing suspicious during a search. Another hospital, Mercy Health’s Springfield regional medical center, received a similar threat.

    A spokesperson with Mercy Health said the hospital has continued to operate and thanked Springfield police as well as hospital staff “for their swift, efficient and caring response”.

    The bomb threats Saturday came after others had been called in to government buildings Thursday, forcing their closure and causing local schools to be evacuated.

    How do we know the bomb threats didn't come from ANTIFA or someone like that?

    I don't know who issued them, but it seems quite clear that y'all seem to be very sure you know who issued them.

    When the FBI or local PD figures this out, are you going to accept their finding?

    He also say they are from Venezuela.

    Demented, wrong, and hate are a deadly combination, and we are seeing the real-world consequences of Vance and Trump's immoral and dangerous words.

    Apparently the Springfield Mayor owns LOTS AND LOTS of rental properties in Springfield and is making a killing on federal funds, where he is getting paid way above what would otherwise be market prices for rents. That's how 20k Haitians ended up in a town of 60k people.



    This is a massive scandal, if confirmed.
