People want to react like he was a child. HE WAS NOT! He was big enough to overcome another man and beat him into the ground.
Ted Nugent hit it right on the head with his statement. This ridiculous case would not have even made the news if it had been black on black, like happens about 30 times a week in Detroit and Chicago. Where is Jesse and Al and our wonderful president every week when several black kids are innocently killed by their own neighborhood thugs in their own "hoods"? It is time for our "leaders" to quit lock-stepping with the new black panthers (purposely small caps). They are nothing but thugs, but seem to be dictating to our "leaders" what is important.
I hope you don't also like to hunt over bait or use hounds to run deer. If you do, then you will soon find out those are taboo, as well. If you don't solely practice spot and stalk, then on this site you aren't considered to be a true hunter.
rhomas, Thanks for the welcome. Although I should point out I was one of the original 10 or 12 members of this site......what was it Delw, 8-10-7????? I can't remember. Moosie has yet to respond to me and give me my old handle back. I used to post under the handle Deerslayer and registered more than 10,000 posts....but we would need Delw again..... to verify the specific number! Anywho.....I am aware of the ways of many of these scalawags..... just checking in on the crew to see what's been going on. DS
I believe the only potential problem areas in the schools, will be in the larger urban areas where gang violence is already a common problem. Down here, in the more rural areas of the country, there aren't nearly the number of racial incidences that occur in areas such as Los Angeles, Detroit, Chicago, St. Louis, New Orleans, New York, DC, Miami, etc. Even the larger metropolitan areas such as Charleston, Savannah, and even Atlanta don't see the type of conflicts the really bigger areas with large inner city problems experience. Yet, funny enough, the Deep South is where most people consider there to be a larger incidence of racial trouble.........and that just isn't the case!!!!! Don't get me wrong, the bigger cities do have gangs and gang violence, but it's usually contained within that segment of society that attracts the gang mentality. We even have gangs in the rural areas, but they are more closely associated with the drug trade and the violence is usually contained within that population's own communities. The schools have the normal bullies, of course, but most of them are employed by the local school board as teachers, coaches, or resource officers, and not the students!!!!!!!

I am from a rural area and I am sure your local coaches and teachers would take offense at your statement. Typical stereotyping, something which you seem to be good at.birddog 32, have you personally experienced the school system in Hampton County, SC, or anywhere in SC, for that matter? My comments were discussing rural vs. urban schools, and I was using our local schools as my source. Note the last sentence in my post; idiot!!!!!!!!!!

Birddog, what do you call it when a coach tells a student they could make better grades if they played football? How about when a resource officer pulls a kid out of classes and subjects him to 6 hours of uninterrupted interrogation based on a comment made by another student who has been sent of to the state juvenile detention center, without notifying the parents. How about a teacher who can't speak English, that yells and screams at the students because they can't understand Hindi. What would you call it when a resource officer tazes a student for coming back onto campus to retrieve a forgotten text book? Or how about a system that forces students to take a test prep class and lose needed courses in order to improve the overall scores on a test designed to increase Federal Funding to the teachers unions? How about teachers who leave the classroom unattended for a day at the time, in order to attend to personal business, without seeing that a substitute teacher is contacted, and the school has no idea, until the students bring it to their attention. Or the teacher who walks around the school building with a blackjack and threatens students with bodily harm, when they have a hall pass? Resource officers who rather than direct traffic and assist students crossing traffic, tells them tough sh*t if they can't get across in the pouring rain? How about a school resource officer who sexually molests both boys and girls, and the school administration is made aware of it and does nothing about it. If those aren't examples of teachers, resource officers and coaches being bullies, then bullying never existed at all!!!!!!!!
If you'd like more examples, these are just a few that I know of for a fact. The school board doesn't want to be bothered, since according to the superintendent and the board, it's the school administration's place to deal with it!
