I heard about that! Right off the school bus. Do you know anymore details? Was anyone else on the bus? What did the bus driver do to stop this?

I'm glad he's safe.

What a dreadful experience for the families of these people.

It actually happened before the bus even got there. They were waiting for the bus and a truck pulled up and a man got out with a gun and grabbed the closest boy and put the gun in his face and dragged him into the truck. Too scary!

I just read the article. Seems he was randomly chosen and not targeted. When I heard it this morning, they said he was abducted from a bus. That's where my "something is not right" sensors went off.

If it was the bus stop, then I can see how it was a random thing.

From all accounts, the kid has some manners. When this jerk was trying to abduct him, the kid kept saying, "Sir, I don't know you."

I don't think that jerk deserves the respect of being called "Sir".

I'm happy he is safe. It is so scary that this kind of thing happens. And with kids using the internet and advanced technology like they do these days, I wouldn't be suprised if he had been targeted. How can we keep them safe? A friend shared this site with me - http://www.netsmartz411.org/ at least we can help keep children safer on the internet. Has anyone heard of this?
