^^ because of the expected violence and history of these summits. I don't believe they actually "shut down" Pittsburgh like martial law or anything...I honestly don't know. Shutting down the schools seems like a precautionary step by school administrators to prevent riots from keeping parents from their kids or students unable to get away should they be at school/college
i do know my friends in Pittsburgh got the hell out of town because they expected Seattle 2.0

But I am not actually sure what the extent of the "shutdown" was as I am not in Pittsburgh atm...about an hour and a half outside of it.
