It’s told from the point of view of a school shooter. 
 
 Warning: Video content may be upsetting to some viewers. 
 
 Mark Barden, managing director of Sandy Hook Promise, said the video promotes the organization’s “Know the Signs” program which trains students and adults to recognize and report warning signs. 
 
 “We train people how to look for and to recognize and identify warning signs of somebody who is thinking about hurting themselves or hurting others and then give them the tools to connect them with the help or services that they need before it becomes a tragedy. We have an anonymous reporting system, which is a way that folks can send a tip, anonymously, in sort of a safe platform. If they observe any kind of at-risk behavior, they can report on that.” 
 
 Barden said signs could include a change in behavior, a growing fascination with firearms, and feeling isolated. 
 
 He said so far, the organization has trained more than 5 million youth and adults in all 50 states. ||||| This is a set of web collections curated by Mark Graham using the Archive-IT service of the Internet Archive.

 NEWTOWN, Conn. (AP) — Sandy Hook Elementary School students have been sent home for the day after a bomb threat forced an evacuation on the sixth anniversary of the massacre that killed 20 first-graders and six educators. 
 
 Newtown police say the threat was made at about 9 a.m. Friday and the school was evacuated. Lt. Aaron Bahamonde says there's a heightened level of anxiety in town on the anniversary and the school superintendent decided to cancel remaining classes. 
 
 It's unclear whether the threat was related to the bomb threats made nationwide Thursday. 
 
 The school where the shooting happened on Dec. 14, 2012, was knocked down and a new building was constructed at the same site. 
 
 Moments of silence were observed in Newtown and other places Friday morning in memory of the victims.
– The sixth anniversary of the Sandy Hook shooting is a hard-enough day for the community of Newtown, Conn.—and it was made worse Friday morning by a bomb threat that forced Sandy Hook Elementary School to be evacuated. The Newtown Police Department says it was on the receiving end of a 9am call that claimed a bomb had been placed at the school; officers were sent over to check things out, and they deemed the threat not credible, NBC News reports. Still, as a precaution, students were sent home for the day. The school is not the same building where the Dec. 14, 2012, massacre that took the lives of 20 students and six educators happened (that building was razed), but it was built on the same site, per the AP. "My heart is breaking," Connecticut Sen. Chris Murphy posted on Twitter in response to Friday's news out of a town that police say has an already "heightened anxiety" on the shooting's anniversary. "It's not unexpected that these anniversary dates bring out the evil in some people," a Newtown officer says, per WRAL. The AP notes it's not clear if this threat was related to the email hoax that shut down schools and other venues nationwide Thursday. Meanwhile, per WSHU, Sandy Hook Promise, an advocacy group created after the shooting, released a chilling PSA video this week promoting the group's "Know the Signs" program by showing a school day as experienced through the eyes of a soon-to-be shooter.
