Our nation of wimps-----Creepy clown threat prompts Muskegon schools to enter soft lockdown

Creepy clown threat prompts Muskegon schools to enter soft lockdown | MLive.com: "MUSKEGON, MI –  The creepy clown trend has come to Muskegon, creating enough of a threat to prompt Muskegon Public Schools buildings to enter a "soft lockdown" Monday, according to the police chief.
A general threat made on social media by someone posing as a clown was made against Muskegon Public Schools, said Muskegon Police Chief Jeffrey Lewis.
The threat was "not very detailed," Lewis said, and police are trying to determine the source.
The person making the threat posed with a clown face that "I wouldn't want ... at my child's party," the chief said.
All buildings in the district were in a "soft lockdown," meaning students were kept inside, but people were free to come and go through the usual security measures that are in place, Lewis said.
"We're doing a cursory investigation," Lewis said.
"Obviously, we always look at these as real threats."
Police were increasing patrols around the school buildings, and staff were informed and told to be on alert for possible trouble, Lewis said.
The threat seemed to be specific to Monday, Oct. 3, he said.
"At this point we don't see a specific threat," he said.
"It's almost like they're indicting the schools.""
