Columbine Redux?
Channel 9 is broadcasting a report as I speak about a suspected plot by two Dutchtown High School students to embark on a school shooting a la Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold. The attack was to take place on April 20th.
This weekend I watched Bowling for Columbine for the second time--and since it was a Christmas gift, it's likely to be seen by yours truly again.
Here's something interesting: one of the alleged plotters is a 19 year-old, but is a sophomore at the public high school. My guess is that he's only there because the job market is too lousy for a drop out, although, to be fair, I recall taking the bus to school in the late 1970's and having to share the ride with a number of 16 year-old eighth graders.
Life won't be easy for someone who is unable to succeed in a school system as bad as this one.
If the allegations are true, then it's pretty frightening. I can't imagine that these kids are the only bizarros in the public education system.
