Stabbing at Spring High School!

[FULL DRAW]

It was all gang stuff. I got into some fights in school with some illegals that they bussed in as part of some program. They use to break into our lockers during baseball practice and steal people's stuff. I saw a dude wearing my hat and jacket and he was with another guy doing the same so it was on. But all the bad stuff was between idiots. That dude who got shot, I later became friends with a guy and that was his cousin, turns out was shot by his "homeboy" who closed his eyes and fired at the dude he was fighting and hit his own gang member buddy. And after he got hit his "homies" burned off in the suburban and left him there. Oh well....I guess he won the stupid prize that day. Btw he turned out fine. All his wounds healed up.

Prayers up for the families and honest kids, who are simply trying to earn an education there!

Gang Bangers.......drain circling scum. Till the glorification of GANGSTA LIFESTYLE is denounced & deemed uncool.......expect more and more and more of this.

There was a time, a period, where the Public school was one of the safest places for your child to be.

Mass Killers & Gang Bangers...that line seperating the two is becoming very fuzzy.

Only one way I see to deal with the gangsters (gangs) of today...................
Bullets and Gunpowder directed back at them by the masses of legal hard working people. It's hard to instill fear in a gun toting ready to shoot, law abiding citizen that believes in the 2nd amendment till their last breath. We have too many pansies in our society today that don't believe in and eye for an eye when your dealing with this level of scum that have no value for human life and do everything out in the open and promote who and what they are as loudly and blatantly as they can.
I'm locked and loaded how about you.

Wouldn't expect anything else from that high school.. Sad news

[FULL DRAW]

Count would appear to be 1 dead, 3 injured

Was the dude getting jumped? If so then it sounds like self defense to me. I mean if anyone were getting jumped by three other dudes who wouldn't use anything as a weapon in order not to be beat to death. Just saying. People have a survival mode that kicks, no matter how stupid they are to be in a gang or what have you.

Tragic.

It's a shame. Unfortunately, I fear will see an Obama telecast soon discussing the dangers of knives and he feels likes they should be regulated.

"Pastor E.A. Deckard of Green House International Church told the Houston Chronicle that he was serving as spokesman for the family of one of the victims. Deckard said the incident was part of an ongoing battle involving young men of different races.

"We as a community need to come together to show kids the value of real life," Deckard said, adding that "this was not gang violence, but simply a misunderstanding between two people."

Yeaaaahhh... Sorry Pastor, but you are incredibly stupid or incredibly out of touch...or both.

Some very spooky times we are living in.

Seems like these people's main problem is they always call the pastor (and the Lord) after someone gets killed. Maybe they need to start calling on the Lord a little earlier in life.

It's a very sad deal. Totally pointless violence.

I'm all for teachers being able to carry at school but I don't think that even approaches solving the problem. It's, at best, a band aid. Sure, in a perfect scenario, the aggressor will lie wounded or dead and the intended victim will be unharmed. But we'll still have a wounded or dead kid - that's not a "solution." I wish we could find a way to make the societal changes to prevent these kids from heading to school with these intentions. THAT would be a solution.

Eh, not really. "Expected" is probably more accurate/descriptive.

That would be wonderful and full of sugar-sweets and rainbows!

Don't buy into this angle.

The pastors in on it to hire the lawyer so he can get a chunk of the settlement.

Shoot. A stabbing happened at a school in our area in 2009.... Glad Elf Feet is okay. Show this to her when she gets home & let her have a laugh. She probably needs it after a day on pins & needles! BTW-- this was a real thing that happened, I watched the original news broadcast on our local news!

Since somebody else raised the race question, and the FBI tracks it for all crime, what were the races of the victims and the accused? I don't want to jump to any conclusions based on my stereoypical prejudice and life experience.
