I would have laughed too if i was the teacher , but my point was that its perfectly reasonable for someone to think it was strange , and once the cia was notified , perfectly reasonable for them to investigate it ..
Perhaps if people had trusted their "sixth sense " before 9/11 it might not have happened.
If the photo place had pictures of kids being messed with , do you think its fair for them to report them , and it be investigated ? Even though the photo place has no proof the people in the pictures were underage ? of course you/we do ..
I dont think they need to harrass anyone , but i also dont think its such a bad thing that they investigate it..
I mean really , lets put it in realistic terms here . The wal-mart employee may have gotten a bad feeling , thought it was strange , reported it to the police , they said " we dont handle that " forwarded it to the feds. The feds called him said " whats with the picture " , he said " it was a school project " , they call the teacher ask " was it a school project ? " , teacher says " yup " case closed , i cant really see how the situation could have been handled "better"
Should the feds ignore warnings ? should wal-mart not report suspicious activity ? If you were in charge how would you have handled it ?
