At Cumberland Regional High School in Seabrook, NJ, the highschool I graduated from, 2 male students( a 15yrold sophmore and a 17yrold junior) dressed in trenchcoats and ski masks burst into a classroom (Introduction to Computers) and shouted at the 16 students to get down on the ground. THey had their hands in their coats as if they were weapons. Once the class complied they left. They were not acting or playing around. One of the students in the class thought they recognized one of the "assailants" and when police questioned him, he ratted out his partner and they are both in the Cumberland County Juvenile Detention Center.

Smart, huh? Geez I hope they spend at least 5 years in the penn. This is starting to get ridiculous. My fear is that it will escalate into an actual attack. This the same school that had a girl murdered in the bathroom 2 yrs ago. I think its time they put a permanant police station in there. I don't have a link but I bet it will be on the local news at least, maybe the national the media loves this stuff unfortunatly.

That is pretty messed up. They should be taken out back and have some sense smacked into them.

at times like this, i'm glad i don't (1) have kids and (2) are in school anymore.

school violence is getting rediculous. these kids should be smacked around with a rubber fish numerous times.

FrogDog,

Yeah. It is. That's why EVERYONE (including you) has jumped out from behind a door or corner and screamed BOO! At someone some time in his/her life. It's funny as hell playing a joke and seeing the TERROR on someone's face. That said, anyone who would do such a prank by acting like school shooters in today's tense climate is a DAMN MORON, and it's no laughing matter.

This is kind of similar to what happened the Friday before Spring break.
At my school we were having this spring fling thing type carnival to raise money for some crap at our school. There were two threating phonecalls made the day before that and they said something about bad things will happen at the spring fling...
Friday later on during the day, one kid was arrested, and I think they are looking for one more who was involved.

i got an idea on what to do with these two kids:

put them in prison for a little while. Have a really huge/fat inmate come up behind them and take off their close. Pretend that they are gonna get butfvked and then in the last second just not do it. this would teach em a lesson about trying to pretend to do some horrible thing.

While in theory that sounds like a good idea, two wrongs don't make a right. That wouldn't really teach those kids anything IMHO.

I say lock them up for a couple of years, deprive them of their high school years, and eventually they'll regret what they've done. If not, they more than likely have some sort of chemical imbalance and need mental counseling.

My wifes sister is a Senior there, and she told me the other day that a kid brought a bomb-threat note to the office saying he found it in the hall. They rewound the surveillance camera tapes and found that he dropped it there himself and only pretended to be the one who found it. Brilliant.

Uh. So what did these kids do? They played a joke and know they are in prison. Sucks for them.

Dunno...

I believe it has to do with the parents, the time
they don't spend with their children, and all the
time they spend at work. On several of these cases,
a common thread is that both parents work.

When I worked in Illinois, I noticed a difference in
the kids from &quot;rich&quot; communities, and those in poor.
In places like Lake Forest, Deerfield, Northbrook,
Glenview, Park Ridge South, the kids were, well, not
in full posession of their facilities upstairs, and
could not see how they were actually being controlled
in the scheme of things.

Typically, parents got home after 6:00 p.m., meanwhile
they were being brought up by the teachers who were of
the '70 generation, MTV, and HBO/Showtime.

Meanwhile, the parents are working thier lives away, not
spending time with their kids and guiding them through a
evermore complicated barrage of a twisted society. These
are young men and women in the stage of life where hormones
are a influencing factor on their decisions and thought
processes. (Do your parents really *need* that SUV and
that big gaudy house on land that is not much bigger than
the house?) Besides, after working so hard all day, parents
are physically and emotionally drained, and have nearly no
desire to react to family life, and if pushed, over react.
As if by working so hard your life will be that much
better...and life for them will soon be over anyhow.

Our society is based on laws whos roots come from a
past of religious type values. In a society where these
same roots are being espoused, ridiculed, and the values
not being established in the young men and women, there is
bound to be upheaval of unprecedented magnitudes.

Meanwhile, the parents work their lives away, not seeing
what is going on around them, not caring, not doing anything
about it. And then one day when reality comes to a bone
breaking, screetching, ice cold water in the face, up close
and personal, all of a sudden they say, &quot;What happened?&quot;

It is too late at that point.
