SAN ANTONIO - Former John Marshall High School students held their 20-year reunion Saturday night as they tried not to think about the former classmate arrested for a threatening Facebook post. In it, 38- year old Jason Carroll Moss mentioned columbine and seeking vengeance against classmates who bullied him.

While the Facebook posting did pose concern for reunion goers they still had a good turnout. An estimated 150 people attended the family style reunion at a home just north of San Antonio. And while Moss signed up to attend he did not show up.

Moss posted bail earlier in the day on Saturday after he was arrested on harassment charges. Police say Moss admitted to posting the comment because he was planning on attending the reunion and did not want to be picked on.

Police monitored Moss' actions in the days leading up to his arrest. They also patrolled the reunion site as a precautionary measure.

I don't have any priests, I am a true Christian--NOT a catholic. The catholics probably condone Facebook the way they do gambling and other sins against our Lord.

"People who love God and Jesus would NEVER do Facebook".....woooooow really? Maybe if all your priests had facebook they would spend more time on their computers and less time on their altar boys lol. As long as they love Jesus though everything will be ok.

Yotube, my only book is the Bible, and the only friend you need is Jesus. People who love God and Jesus would NEVER do Facebook.

Facebook is a sin, and all the people who use it are aiding the work of the devil. People become addicted to it and stay on it all day and night. It's the devil's way of keeping people distracted from their duties of worshipping and witnessing for God and Jesus. In addition to all the vulgarity and blasphemy that goes on there, lunatics like this man hang out there. If you have Facebook, delete it and spend your extra time by worshipping our Lord and Savior and studying his scriptures while there is still time.

FDNY1983 - Couldn't agree with you more! It's fairly obvious that there was a reason no one wanted to befriend him all those years ago. And 20 years hence he still imagines the problem is with everyone else and not himself. How many people who where "bullied" still believe that? Better get a clue soon otherwise it will be a wasted life.

This guy may have been picked on in high school because he's anti social. To be almost 40 and even care about a bunch of high school losers is an indicator this guy is mentally unstable. He needs some therapy and/or medication to get his bizarre thoughts under control before he hurts someone or himself!

TO SATlady, if you followed the story from any other news reports you would know that this person threatened that he wanted to shoot everyone at the reunion and that he wanted to get revenge. He also stated that he wished he would have done a "Columbine" while in high school. Quite different from this story stating he did not want to be picked on. This was my school and my reunion. I chose to stay home and not attend because it was a "family" event and I did not want to take my children even if there was a slight chance that this guy would show up and start a shooting spree (just not worth it to me). There is a lot more involved with this person than just these threats. It is a sad situation for everyone involved. I hope he is able to get help and work through his issues if he still experiences pain from his past.
