Speaking of Crazy...

A group of third graders in Georgia plotted to attack their teacher.
A group of third-graders plotted to attack their teacher, bringing a broken steak knife, handcuffs, duct tape and other items for the job and assigning children tasks including covering the windows and cleaning up afterward, police said Tuesday.

I can see one or two kids going off the deep end now and then, maybe a handful of kids fantasizing about hurting their teacher, but this is scary. These aren't high schoolers or even junior high kids. These are third graders! Between television, public schools, drugs (and I don't mean anything illegal), humanism, and Darwinism, what in the world have we done to our children that they have become capable of this?

    See the last thread, Jay. Having been carefully taught, they simply serve the Prince of This World.

  2. If I add a little...
    "Having been carefully taught that they are the princes of their own world, they simply serve the real Prince of This World."

  3. The article is really carefully focused on these children. how did they come up with this? Why? What were the parents doing? What is wrong with them? How could they get the whole class involved?
    What I want to know is, what kind of absolutely Horrible, shitty teacher did these kids have that they felt they had to KILL her, just to get through the year?
    (Not that my bias against public education is showing much... But think about that question for a second before you rail against the kids too much.)

  4. I'm not railing against the kids at all. That's the point of asking "What have we done to our children?"
