Something a bit serious

Please click on my links section on the link that says "Dan's Blog". My friend Dan is a school administrator...he is currently the Co-Principal at the Middle School that I attended when I was in 6-8th grade. Back when I went it was a good school. The neighborhood was good, etc. Now it is a War Zone, with punk asses that ruin it for the good students. I won't mention the City because Dan keeps the site name and City anonymous on his Blog so out of respect to him it shall be that way here. Put it this way, if you know me, then you know what City I grew up in, and you know what has happened to that City. Enough said. Today Dan wrote about an incident at his school that was almost disatrous. Apparently two 13 year old students were planning a "Columbine-Style" assault on a handful of other Students who berate and abuse them constantly. At the root of the situation: differences of opinions about music. Music!!!!!! Jesus Christ!!! Is this what we are teaching kids??? If you don't like someone then pick on them and try and deny them their rights. After all was investigated, it was discovered that the planned assault was just a scare tactic to make the Bullies crap their pants. What is it going to take to make kids stop picking on each other???? Another group of "misfits" going on a shooting spree??? It seems to me that we are seriously destined to repeat history. Iraq has become another Vietnam, but we have at least learned that the soldiers aren't to blame for the mess but that the blame sits squarely on the shoulders of the Politicians that sent them there. As for these poor kids, they are getting psych help, but will probably be expelled. One is on suicide watch. My daughter Olivia goes through sometimes at school. She is learning to ignore it though. Thank God. So if you are reading this and are a parent; teach your children TOLERANCE. Please!!!!! If not, it may be your kids bodies they carry out of the next school massacre with a sheet draped over it.
