My crush’s high school is next to CSULA and it got evacuated too. It doesn’t seem to be an actual threat but whoever did this is an asshole to say the least.

I had to GoogleMap CSULA to see if it would be in my path today, I wasn’t even aware it existed.  
They’re kinda grasping to justify the “LA” part of CSULA. Maybe it’s _technically_ in the city, the map doesn’t clearly show city boarders. Yeah, I won’t have any difficulty avoiding the CSULA area today . . . or any day.

Its clearly on the City of LA..just to the south of El Sereno and a bit north of the 10. Lots of hot Salvedorenas around there. 🙂

See, now I’m all nostalgic for the days when you’d get a bomb threat and if you were lucky it **might** make a couple column inches in the local paper. Every random threat getting onto the Internet immediately just encourages the trolls, not to mention the real bomb-makers.
