Bomb threats that were later proven to be false have forced the evacuation and closure of schools and government buildings in Springfield, including City Hall.

Ohio state police will conduct daily sweeps of schools in Springfieldafter authorities have been forced to investigate “at least 33” bomb threats that led to evacuations and temporary building closures, Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine said Monday.

“We want to make sure, as school continues this week in Springfield, that parents have confidence that the school is in fact safe,” the Republican governor said at a press conference.

Each bomb threat has been a hoax without “any validity at all,” DeWine said.

    I think you’ve read more into it than the Nazis have (as they are typically too dumb to read). Things are very black and white for these people. “Immigrants is bad. Springfield is immigrants. Springfield is bad.” That’s as far as the thinking goes. Then lazy Neo-Nazis that have nothing to do with the situation do whatever they can to “hurt” the “bad people” and a very easy way to do that is to call in bomb threats. And since they are not just stupid but also unoriginal and they already heard someone else called in a bomb threat…I guess that’s what we’re doing now…
