"NB teen charged with making computer threat against DHS students"

In this article, a New Bedford teen distraught over a recent breakup makes a threat over the internet to arrive at Dartmouth High School, shoot several people, then commit suicide. The internet is offering many "alternative" ways for teens to deal with their problems. I would argue that these electronic avenues are not healthy. It is easier for teens to type, post, comment or tweet their irrational and impulsive thoughts without considering the implications. The 17 year old male is being arraigned in court in the next couple days.
