It’s “sad” they always “only” attack someone whom they know they can beat.
It’s almost like that Hunter who brags about how he shot that Deer from a mile away with a 30-30.
In truth… he’s the very one who couldn’t control his bowels in combat.
Let this man personally witness an execution… the same kind he must now face… then ask him… “how do you feel today”. Then watch the expression on his face, as he realizes his own fate.
Then Televise it.
That’s what they did with Hussain.
It’s funny… no one else has stepped up to take his place lately.
Not so tough now… are you!
Poor, Uneducated, Jealous, and filled with Rage… he snaps back at his own mother.
Another human being lost to an inadequate Educational System, a system which relies on parents to raise their own kids.
Sounds good… but if where truly affective, the rich wouldn’t see the need to send their own to “private schools” now would they?
Com’on people… let’s get these “idiots” educated… before they kill us ALL!!!
The same “crap” is going on all around the world in the poorer more uneducated communities.
You can’t tell me that ALL OF THOSE PEOPLES PARENTS… where not good parents.
90% of what and who a person becomes is a direct result of their own social environment.
And what is everybody’s most impactive social environment… that’s right… your school days. They stay with you for the rest of your life. However short that might be.
Solution: There has got to be a way… to make school “FUN”.
That’s what “private schools” do.

I’m an educator in New Jersey. I agree that help is needed; however, too much responsibility is laid upon education. I should not teach character education; that begins at home. Parents are seldom held responsible today and due to that lethargic, sleeping sickness that has plagued parents, I am forced to take a position of mom and dad. I have a Language Arts degree! Let me teach that and let’s get back to parenting 101 for those who neglegently have unprotected sex and conceive children I will not only teach but be forced to raise in 185 days!

If this guy is white I’ll eat my hat. He looks to be hispanic or something but he certainly would’nt qualify as a White Man.

You are right Hope,
There is such a thing as The First Seven Years, at home. There is where a child learns right and wrong. There is where you learn not to hurt other living things, from a row of ants to a deer, to another human. And there, is where you learn to stand up, and try to stop the ones that do Wrong, and Praise the ones that do Right !
And that is something I practice every day of my life. As a care taker, I often have to call APS or CPS, the ASPCA and others, to save lives from being destroyed.
People out there !!! Educate yourselves, and when you are ready, then, have young ones. We have to have a plan, to succeed with the next generation.
Our nation can not continue with the hate that is still so insidious amongst us !! It is a cancer we must cut out, or else we’ll perish, and we are such a great nation full of potential !!!
God Bless Us All

I do feel the need to address another foolish response. violence is not indicitive of a race. Please become more human and more intelligent. violence is a behavior. It’s time to THINK! If we do not recognize this, we are no diferent than the animals of our world. But here’s your news flash for today…human existence IS more advanced and intellectually capable than our animals. And, that existence isn’t color coded or ethnicity labled. Why can’t we act like we are advanced? Your reference to ethnicity is offensive and of lower level intelligence. STOP being the problem and help people work together to create positive change for all! That’s the solution. We can spend forever pointing blame, looking at fault in others and refusing to see our own ignorance. What good is that to life? Start at home! YOU are the first order of business. Endeavor peace with all men and compassion and love will follow. Have a great day.

I like you “HOPE” but your kids are the very ones that the “bullies” seek out and beat down everyday at school… just because they have NOTHING BETTER TO DO AT SCHOOL.
Besides, no one is talking about “teaching social skills” at school… but school should be an “exciting” place for kids… a place that they can’t wait to get to every morning.
Not some boring institution that’s just going through the paces because it’s the law.

Mr. Robinson, you may like me, but you know even little more about the educational system or me. learning should indeed be fun. Could you still find “fun” in a political system clothed under the guise of child-centeredness? Could you get up and go to work daily where you are expected to manage 30 or more youngsters at a time in any area large enough for 15, thrown in a class with no curriculum, given little prep to classroom management, expected to meet ever rising test benchmarks using the results of revolving door families — flitting from district to district — not to mention the lack from past educational systems students had before coming to me? Could you still feel motivated to offer “fun” when you know you work under administrators who know increasingly less than you but are paid substantially more, yet expect the teacher to perform miracles from their collasal disasters? Just a little for you. I’m on the front line of this thing called education, and I must say, every day is harder than the one before. And, for your information, bullies and their victums are everywhere; I teach them all. You get off the sidelines and maybe hit the frontline?

HOPE… you hit hard…{*_*}…!
I have just become aware of TSL.
…and… the county of Los Angeles (and I hope your county too) is in the process of doing something to relieve “Teacher Student Load” that has shown to yield dramatic results in student performance and actually reduce the tone of aggravation students begin to display as a result of these over crowed conditions.
So you are making a strong case Hope, one that school districts and boards can no longer ignore thanks to the evidence brought forward by studies on TSL.. you should begin to see results of those finding presented to school boards of many districts across the country, because they where made public through Public Service Television… the impact of these findings can no longer be denied by schools boards and districts.
So, thank God for studies on TSL being presented PUBLICLY.
Over Crowded Schools… foolish of ANYONE to think that this condition would have little effect on the capacity to Learn.
Private schools TSL averages 20 students per teacher… Public schools TSL averages 60 students per teacher.
Case closed.
P.S. The evidence presented on TSL was 3 hours long.
…and FASCINATING! Everyone there “applauded” at the end of that presentation, parents, teachers, and board members alike… “all applauded”.
Now when can me and U have lunch.

Glad to see you’re doing your homework. That’s vital to a teacher like me. Lunch sounds inviting. I’m on the east coast. You? LA? That’s a long lunch date!
