“While watching coverage of the Boston Marathon bombing and its aftermath, I couldn’t help but notice multiple uses and variations of the word ‘lockdown’ (e.g. ‘Boston is locked down’). I’ve been hearing that word used more and more frequently over the last few years, and finding its connotations are troubling.  Between 1990 and 2008, use of the term ‘lockdown’ in English-language books ballooned ten times.  Suddenly lockdowns were no longer just a prison thing. They became a school thing, and then an area, neighborhood, city thing.  As of Tuesday morning, Google News reported more than 50,000 uses of the word ‘lockdown’ in the news media in the previous 30 days.”
