Default Creativity in American Schools!!!

For those of you that don't have faith in our school system this story shouldquell those feelings. These students showed teamwork, planning and motivation. There was classic division of labor for efficiency as well as rudimentary exit strategy. I know I will sleep better knowing that these 8 and 9 year olds are learning how to plan a hit.

That is some scary stuff. Leave it to kids to think up crap like this. Honesty though can you blame them, all they see in the media is the war. If you dont like someone or the way they are doing things, you form a plan, go after them, and kill them. Thats the message we are sending to our youth, you cant blame kids like this, I would be surprised if they knew any better.

Adults (me included) are constantly underestimating the intelligence and resorcefullness of children. Beware, they are smarter and more coniving than you think!!!

I'm impressed...no gun....

I wonder about the parents of these kids. What do they teach them? Why wasn't there one kid sitting there thinking...um...maybe we shouldn't be doing this? LOL....I just got the image of Chucky chasing down a victim in my head... D'oh!

These are distubred children in the first place. I bet they were ADD or ADHD kids. My grandma worked as an assistant to one of those types of teachers and these kids are just hateful to begin with and its because they have mental problems. So, I dont think any of you should be suprised.
