big guns

Shit, just shit!

They made an announcment over the Rez PA saying that the police were coming door to door. Fine. I heard a knock, heard police, opened the door-

And had three members of The SWAT team standing there, full gear with three really big guns pointed at me.

I am beyond shaky now. Police I can understand, but this getting a little out of hand and I am now officially a mess. If anyone wants to call and keep me distracted, the number here is

(905) 815-4150 ext. 7547

Feel free to just yak away. I won't mind at all.

Oh great, they're gonna scare the last people who stayed sane in this mess! Good job, police...

Anyways, I'd love to call you, but I kinda can't from Germany ^^" (not with the cheapy phone company I have).
But I hope someone will call you and keep you distracted and cheer you up!

Seriously, why is it one hting after the other coming at you? *hugs*

Hey, hun. I know they aren't telling you anything, so I went searching to see what I could find. The Toronto Sun has this to say:

"Sheridan College's Trafalgar campus is under lockdown after a teacher and students reported seeing a man with a gun, students at the school said.

"Police are slowly letting out small groups of students at the Oakville campus.

"Students said the man was wearing a camouflaged jacket and was holding a long gun.

"Police have not been able to find the suspect or the gun.

"Police took a man into custody, but he was later released. Staff and students also heard an automated message cautioning them that the school was in lockdown over the campus’s loudspeakers."

*hugz* Poor you. I hope you're feeling a bit better now. I was in France 2 years ago, and it was when the riots were happening, and I was in a subway near the back, and the door open and I had the exact same thing happen. Door almost hit my head too.

I seriously hope you're feeling a bit better. If you still need someone to call you I can. You can help me with my linguistics essay. LoL. jk. ^____^

Hey there. Your line's busy, and it has a voice mail from me now.

If they're doing a room-by-room, then I'm not at all surprised that it was SWAT members going around, in a group, or... doing what they did, basically. That *is* what they're trained to do, and until they can prove otherwise they sort of *have* to assume that the person they're looking for is behind each and every door, waiting to shoot them first.

Take a deep breath. It's gonna be okay.

I tried, but the phone just rang and at fifty cents per minute, I wasn't gonna let it keep ringing. ^^;

*huggle*

Think of nice, happy things.

Oh wtf. D:

I would call you, but my cell phone died recently. :(

*Snuggles and sends waves of comfort toward you*

i'd send you a call, but i think you probably have enough support already ^^ that, and i'm not a really good speaker....

i'm glad to hear that things have started to work themselves out.

I had SWAT in my home one a few years ago, hopefully it'll be a footnote in you future that you can look back on with a wince and a chuckle.

*hug* i;m glad to hear that all has worked out for the most part.

I'd say great! They're responding appropriately! Except that scaring the living daylights out of people = not cool.

I think you probably don't want to be called so early in the morning anyway... -_-

I'm glad it turned out ok

I didn't see this postie at the time but I hope my text was a comfort at least x_x

o_0 I saw the swat on the tv and was like 'oh damn'. x_x sucks they had them trained on you but you've had that before and they've got great control. You're safe *pet*

I heard it was all a false alarm x_x that's a lot of crap for a false alarm.
