Kids with Guns

---

JESUS!!THis has happened to about 5-6 highschools in my area within the last month.. kids bringing guns to school.. or any weapons.. what the fuck is going on!?

you mean the skinny, disenfranchised kids leading alternative lifestyles? They do get pushed pretty hard in school but it's still not an excuse.

It's been happening lately in the states as well.

Some kids, however, bring weapons to school just to see if they can get away with it.

A guy called William Mastrosimone wrote a play about the increase in violence in schools, especially gun violence. Its called Bang, Bang You're Dead. In reply to:"Bang Bang You're Dead" is a resource for dealing with a broken world that's violent, unhealthy, unfair, and beyond the power of anyone to fix except today's generation.The play is a free gift for students to perform in schools, garages, street corners, parks, houses of worship -- anyplace there can be communication and discovery about how we've made the world's violence our own. And how we can change it. I saw a movie a few years ago based on it.

oh please. In my school somebody flashes a gun and people are unphased. that's how bad it's gotten. did I mention how many times the cops are at my school and we're on the news for some gang shoot out. yeah! kids are on crack nowadays so... that explains it lol to get INTO my school every morning at 7:15 am you have to go through about 3 dectors with about 4 cops manning it and the search you physically. EVERY MORNING for the entire school year. You have to flash your school ID (mine looks like crap) proving you attend the school. Yet kids still get them in school. We have the NYPD at our school and the FBI a couple times.

I'm not sure how much that's changed over the years, althogh it does look like more people are getting shot in schools (but not always by students; in the recent case in Pensylvania, it was a guy from the out side). Still, the possibility of getting shot in school is very small.

> Kids are getting bullied and pushed over the edge....kinda has a familiar ring to it in a waqy!

That sounds kind of ominous.

there were weapon raids at my highschool a long time ago (same town as Pink). back then, it wasn't firearms though. It was martial arts weapons among Vietnamise gangs that formed after the refugee crisis. A VERY small percentage of the "boat people" had a lot of trouble assimilating. Abby, that sucks.. it really does! That's no way for kids to go to school. It's not right and it's not fair.

Actually this was at Purplestains highschool

o my...you know hes banned right? guns scare me but thankfully we newfs dont have that many guns to worry about lol

I heard that a kid brought a lobster trap to school last week

Do the lobsters consider it a hate crime?

niiice, and to ashley, yea, I live in BC, we think a Firearm is when you put your arm to close to the bonfire

LMFAO!!!we have one of those in our backyard..its full of flowers and its right puuurdy and yep thats a pretty harsh hate crime steve!

woah... I thought in BC a firearm is when the heater falls off your joint and lands on the sleeve of your llama-wool sweater.in the east, watch out for the crabby goths

" we think a Firearm is when you put your arm to close to the bonfire "haha i know what you mean. the biggest crime we had in my last year of school was some "bomb threats" ..they found a note in the boys washroom..they never even spelled bomb right...they spelt it "bom"....fucking tools.

the worst thign that has happend thsi year is that some kids form our school drove past the elementary school yellign swear words at them

Please dont go off topic in the thread.

this is a serious issue

Yea, that sucks. I couldn't imagine somthing like that happening at my school It really upsets meWorst stuff at my school is fights getting outa hand and people not from our school comeing to the school grounds to help beat up someone cuz they were fighting with their friend or whatever. It's pathetic.

Same when I was in highschool.. but 3 years later.. this stuff happens at the highschool I went to.. terrifying!

Why was purple banned? (not intending to stay off topic pinkranger, am just curious about this!)
