[QUOTE="jeromebill7718, post: 3949202, member: 11307"] I believe that some schools have metal detectors and some don't. Been a hell of a long time since I have been in school. I lived with my father for a couple of months and went to PC central. They didn't have metal detectors but i think in the 80's not many schools did. As I know it a few "bad" schools had metal detectors and the whole school system was supposed to have them but one or more broke down and they found out the price to fix them was substantial. The school system thought these would last 100 years and that the price would go down. They contacted the people they purchased them from and said they wouldn't buy anymore and would strip parts form metal detectors at schools that were not the worst of the worst and fix the ones at the worst ones. This was a bluff and they got them fixed at a low price but still had to pay and I think they didn't buy anymore. Basically they had to trick them into fixing almost new products or products that were just out of warranty at a reasonable price. I think people thought they contained x-rays and would turn you into the hulk or magnetize your nards. . [/QUOTE]
