Z-Neo Posted April 19, 2005 Posted April 19, 2005 http://www.kotv.com/main/home/stories.asp?...page=1&id=81704 This is really disturbing to me since the town and school itsself are about 15 minutes from me. What happened to the days when 5th graders just had fun, playing on recess, and other good natured things? News like this always bothers me, being a parent of an 11 year old myself
Gryph Posted April 19, 2005 Posted April 19, 2005 Yeah...don't they have better things to do with their time? I mean it's such a waste of time. Go play on your fancy XBOX or something! Leave the killing to grown men.
Dooz Posted April 19, 2005 Posted April 19, 2005 5th graders? I wouldn't be that worried. I mean, they skin their knees and they run off, crying. How do they expect to kill a bunch of students if they can't even take a little scrape?
iq_132 Posted April 19, 2005 Posted April 19, 2005 This "school terrorism" crap is so blown out of proportion. OMG! Little Johnny said "Gun!" He must be a terrorist! Put a turban on him and fry him in the electric chair!
Rag Posted April 20, 2005 Posted April 20, 2005 Gryphs right, these kids need to go play some VGs, killing stays there
NeoMaster Posted April 20, 2005 Posted April 20, 2005 That's what happens when you deny your kids from video game goodness.
Diso Posted April 20, 2005 Posted April 20, 2005 "kids are our future" Our future is slowly going down teh drain cause of crap like this.
Rag Posted April 20, 2005 Posted April 20, 2005 "kids are our future" Our future is slowly going down teh drain cause of crap like this.<{POST_SNAPBACK}> but not if they play VGs like they are supposed to... or baseball or somethin... jeez
Ryuken Posted April 20, 2005 Posted April 20, 2005 i thought that's was video games r for, i myself use video game to release my anger or do anything stupid that i can't do in real life. BTW u guys still have me and drake and some others that aren't That stupid , so ur future is safe with us, hehe
Weirdy Posted April 20, 2005 Posted April 20, 2005 reminds me of when I was in 9th grade I was carrying a big bag of stuff (pe clothes and what not) I'd leave it next to me in class, and one time someone in my english class asked me "damn Albert, whatchou got in that bag?" cause they had almost fell due to stepping on it well...I said "TNT " and my english teacher tells me "you know, I should report you for that" and I said "I was being sarcastic." and started telling me how that stupid columbine shiit and the shiit that happend in Santee(a city in california where there was a hs that had a shooting too, but they mainly wanted to get rid of the asshole security guard) had set a precedence towards what we say and early signs and so forth. I then appologized but this really sucks ass. Can't say the word bomb or dynamite or something in fuucking school. Well...maybe except in History classes, but that's still idiotic
OverlordMondo Posted April 20, 2005 Posted April 20, 2005 "Video Games improve hand-eye coordination and make children into better human beings." What would happen if children didn't play enough video games? Probobly something like this. A lot of people actually blame video games for stuff like this. But if the kids were really playing video games, when did they find time to plot an attack against the school?

"Only in America."
Bluestinger X Posted April 20, 2005 Posted April 20, 2005 (edited) school near where I live they got ahold of a hitlist that had like 25 or so students on it. It did say they were gona kill them. So the school got shut down for that whole week. Back in highschool I hated those damn bomb threats.. i swear we got them like once a month. Instead of letting us go home they would get cops and bomb sniffing dogs to search the school while the whole school had to sit at the bleachers and fry under the sun. I always thought.. if they really wanted to kill us wouldnt they do a bomb threat and then leave a bomb at the stadium.. cause thats where we always went in one huge group. Heh, I have to agree with what you said. But as a foreigner, I have to say... "Only in America."its not just america anymore... I mean didnt a college student go on a rampage in germany? and then theres that story about the 8 year old girl in japan who sliced her friends neck in school. I mean japan of all places arent they supposed to have low crime? oh and what about that kid that killed his friend and they blamed it on manhunt... that was in europe Edited April 20, 2005 by Bluestinger X

Put a turban on him and fry him in the electric chair!<{POST_SNAPBACK}> That's a good idea....fry Johhny so he won't be a terrorist and report back to his cell!!
Wizard Posted April 20, 2005 Posted April 20, 2005 Parents are looking for an easy blame basically. The government isn't suppose to teach your kids. If anything it's parents' fault for being blind to the madness they've started. Also while I'm at it, take pot shots at Joe Liberman, stupid excuse of a senator. American citiziens, your democracy has been high-jacked ever sense the Colimbine incident. Insted of blaming all this stupid dumbass shit on music, on enterainment and on others, blame yourselves for not being with your children. Such as talking to them, getting to know what they do. All it takes is a small listen then a massive backlash against any form of viewable media. "Violent history" is bullshit and everyone knows it. Shit, Germany has a violent history, don't see them shooting up mother fukin schools every single day. Inner city folk got problems, so thats why they do this? Look at Canada, we have the highest unemployment rate compared to Michigan. And while I'm at it. You americans need a better gun policy. You folks also need to make ONE bullet, Five Thousand Dollars each. This will make you *really* think if it's worth the shot.
