I've been thinking a few days now about this situation and I think this is the most I'm ever going to understand it so I will share what went down at my school on Tuesday, May 5th 2009.
Skip ahead to 11 A.M. Tuesday morning. It's just another day at boring ass Canandaigua Acadamy. I'm in the field house playing ultimate frisbee when our school goes into lock down. We were all rushed into the locker room where we stayed for maybe a hour and a half hearing insane rumors about what was going on. We then got escorted out of the school with our hands behind our heads and got brought to the middle school where we stayed maybe another hour and got bused home from there. The school kept all our belongings and our cars at the school.
Not until I got home that day did I really clearly figure out what caused such a scare. While me and my friends were standing outside of the field house my friend Tom Kane was in the bathroom with a sawed off shotgun. Minutes later while we were in gym he went on to shoot himself. He also had 30 rounds of ammunation and 2 homemade bombs in his locker.
Tom was always known to say things that were just a little odd, but just taken as a joke. Apparently he was telling no jokes. This very sad tragedy has hit my school hard and really made some people very upset about how things were dealt with. Please just share your prayers with the Kane family and Tom's closest friends. I can't even imagine how hard it is for them.
