If there is
Some sort
Of attack of biological fallout
Or meteor collision

Maximize children getting hurt
And or lost so the pedos can prey

 Quoting: Carbonous


I suspect it's liability. They don't want to keep kids inside during the eclipse and force them to miss it, but their lawyers are telling them that if a kid gets eye damage, their ass is grass. Close school and eclipse viewing becomes a parent problem.

Re: Why are schools closing along the path of the eclipse?
The eclipse is happening at 3 in the afternoon during dismissal. Many cities along. The path are expecting thousands of visitors including 100,000-300,000 in certain cities. The result is a lot of traffic. Let me ask you. Would you want your child reliant on getting home during the eclipse? Traffic, strangers from all over, walking home alone in the dark? Wouldn’t you want to experience the eclipse with your child? Wouldn’t you want to avoid being caught in traffic for hours? It’s a scale of an event you have to experience to understand.

People keep saying this shit about 100-300k people traveling around like it's gospel and I just don't buy it. Everyone is so jaded and in their phones 24/7 now, they don't give a fuck about a 4 min long nature event. Not to mention they have to work too, on a weekday.

I know a few people who are traveling hours to see it. And I barely know anyone. It seems people are pretty keen to see it.

Exactly, I'm sure there are some out there somewhere who have planned a trip into the area but I have heard zero hubbub about people planning a special vacation just to watch it... Just not that big of a deal to most.

Re: Why are schools closing along the path of the eclipse?
I saw the last one from under the water of Lake Michigan before my attempted murder.

I was with my children.

I have been 7 years in my personal tribulation.

I mean to attend this event as well even if I must travel to Indianoplace.

I would expect GLP folks to possible do shit like this, but the mainstream population is far away from being GLP type people. They are oblivious to nearly everything.

Kids are dumb and will look up at it unprotected if given the chance. Best to leave them out of school and save the retina damage.

Re: Why are schools closing along the path of the eclipse?
Ya kind of freaks me out. Happening in Canada too.

I've been to school during an eclipse. It was no big deal, it was an educational experience.

Something kids don't get anymore, just fear and compliance.

What if it's a cloudy day you we don't even see the eclipse? That's like 80% likely in April in the Great Lakes region.

WTF is actually happening?

Lasts from about 2 to 3:20 in the afternoon at least here in Pennsylvania. Lot of schools let at around that time. Was about 2:30 for me back when I was in high school.
