On Tuesday morning, the superintendent of the Los Angeles Unified School District, a governmental agency which operates hundreds of schools in Los Angeles and nearby areas, sent all its students home. The agency did not make its buses available, but instead asked parents to pick up their children from outside the schools. Superintendent Ramon Cortines ordered all the schools in the district closed because of a threatening message regarding "many schools" which was received by a member of the school board. Cortines called the closure a "precaution based on what has happened recently." Police and the district's "plant managers" are searching the campuses.

From Reuters:
The unprecedented move left some 643,000 students of the Los Angeles Unified School District and their families scrambling to make alternate arrangements and drew criticism as officials in New York said they received the same threat and deemed it not to be credible.
A law enforcement source told Reuters that Los Angeles authorities ordered the closure to allow a full search of about 900 public school facilities without consulting with the Federal Bureau of Investigation, which takes the lead on any potential terrorism investigation.

Uhh you DO know that most of the "studies" the government uses has been paid for by a PAC that is owned by the big tobacco companies? There is a REASON why they want to ONLY block the e-cigs made after 2007, because guess who owns the brands that were out in 2007? RJ Reynolds and Lorillard.
But that isn't the point, the point is as long as you sell it as sanitizing or babyproofing? The millennials are all for that shit, because they want to live in Mr Rogers neighborhood where they get to go through life without a single thing in the world offending them or disturbing their myopic worldview, loss of freedom be damned. I mean for fucks sake when you have comedians as bland and non controversial as Jerry Fricking Seinfeld that won't go anywhere near a college campus because they scream "ist!" at every damned joke? this generation be severely fucked up.
ACs are never seen so don't bother. Always ready to show SJWs for the racists they are.
