Middle School Criminals

[KSH]

Imagine this....On the way to pick up my daughter yesterday from after-school care, I was listening to Jeff Katz talk about these criminals/felons in high school. My daughter gets in teh car and says "XXX is back". I asked who that was. She said one of the troublemakers from elementary school. She said he was starting school late because he had been in juvie for stabbing someone!!! This punk is in classes with my 11 year old!!!
What is CMS thinking?!?! This is a magnet school, too. You would think he would at least lose the priviledge of going to a magnet school, if not be sent to one of the exclusionary schools.
I'm beside myself with anger. I'm on the school leadership team and I will be bringing this up.

AS native 50 yr charlottean its so sad to see us turn into barrios. East charlotte is toast and its encroaching down south blvd. If the 4 apartments complexes on Johnston rd next to cameron wood are any indication (3 of the 4 lowered their rental schedules, i guess the market demanded it, cant blame them) we are FAR UNDERESTIMATING the latino population..
The larcenies in surrounding neighborhoods have increased exponentially just in 2 yrs.
Schools are dangerous because we have taken away the fear of paddling, plain and simple.
Tick by tick we take away the downside of bad behavior, hence the abberant behavior goes unabated.
Anybody in america that, whether its bill Cosby or anyone else, who says "hey that not appropriate" gets villified by the media, hence no one else will say a word, as not be personally attacked.
hence....kids hear no downside to the poor behavior... is this TOO obvious?
With a local paper , the Observer, refusing to give us cold hard facts, we are left with a paper that does an enormous disservice to its community
Yesterday the Observer stated, Hispnaics robbed, "indicates recent alarming trend of latinos being robbed" WHAT ABOUT the trend that of common demoninator of the black, white, and latino victims that are mugged , that the perpetrators are in 91% of cases all of one race!. Did that miniscule trend excaope the observer?
Tommorows Observer headlines:
*Lumbee Indian May have been looked at Disaprovingly By Bill James in 1998
*Some that choose not to purchase reasonably priced health Insurance Go Ininsured
*Gay St. Bernard was made to wait 2 hours at vet. Suit pending
*Diversity in Hamsters key to Harmony
*Angelina Jolie Had Headache In 2001, reports say.
* Black NFL Players , who comprise 84% of league, demand more
Diversity in Trainer staff
*Gay Canned Hams celebrate Diversity at Sunday Festival.

The observer is like template. Cant they just get wire stories, right or left, and put them in and give the paper some meat?

What is BLACK ON BLACK CRIME ANYWAY?
i realized thats the only PC way to bring up a critical topic is to make the perpetrator also the victim.... give me a break
