Newgrounds and School Violence

The big story yesterday in the Globe and Mail about how a Montreal student foiled an arson plot in the UK, Overseas arson plot foiled by Canadian who logged on - and 'did the right thing'. The Montreal student was on a forum at Newgrounds when a disgruntled 16 year-old expressed an interest in firebombing his school. The irony is that the mascot of Newgrounds is Pico. Pico is in an early flashgame called Pico's School where he, Pico, has to fight his way through a school after a shooting.
