The fifth-grader found one note in her storage bin on Friday which said, “You’re a terrorist,” along with her last name, Boston 25 reported.

School officials said they had put safeguards in place, but on Monday, the girl found a second note in her cubby that was addressed to her.

The note said, “I will kill you.”

1. Possible hate crime?????!!!!!

Are they fucking kidding me? And to a fifth grader. They need to catch this vermin and make him/her famous.

4. Mommy and Daddy taught that little Magat well...

And his/her punishment, when caught, will be "Oh, s/he's just a bit confused and didn't understand what s/he was doing..."
Even though s/he probably heard about how all Muslims were Terrorists (along with Blacks being lazy welfare cheats and Hispanics being illegal MS-13 members or job thieves) from Mom and Dad every single day of his or her life.

5. I wouldn't be so sure it came from a fellow student

Not sure I knew how to spell terrorist at that age.

6. My 7 year old grand-daughter just learned to spell Salamander.

Kids can spell out words that come up repeatedly in what they read - or at least labels they are regularly exposed to.

For example, Faux News has the word "terrorist" prominently displayed about 40% of the time on all their shows, so it wouldn't be that much of a stretch to expect that's a word a 9- or 10-year old exposed to Faux can spell, no matter how poorly they may write.

10. I guess

That's still a complicated concept for a 10 year old.

7. That's what I'm thinking too. The handwriting is a big clue...

That’s not the handwriting of a child, but of someone writing with their non-dominant hand, I’m sure of it.

8. yeah thats an adult.

what strikes me is how they went over each letter a couple times

11. It breaks my heart

that child will probably never get over this. Something she will always remember. And she's just a child. My heart goes out to her and her family.

2. Sick, sick, sick. Beyond cruel and despicable.

Probably a Trumpster. These people are insane. Threatening a ten year old girl.

What is this world coming to?

3. This is what Trump and the GOP have unleashed on this country

They are down to terror threats against 10 year old girls now with no end in sight.

9. A crime of stupidity.

Mommy and Daddy oughta be real proud of their baby.

12. Number of school shootings perpetrated by little Muslim girls still stands at 0 though
