Just what the hell is with people's kids these days.

When I was in the third grade (back in the caveman's time) there were teachers I really hated. Boy did I hate them. From their irrational desires for me to sit in my chair quietly to their unreasonable expectation of homework. I really really hated some of my teachers.

But the thought of hurting one of my teachers never entered my mind no less conspiring to bring the means to the school. It is not like I had to make a moral decision that hurting my teacher was wrong.. it just never occurred to me as even a remote option.

And I don't think I was alone in this. We all hated some of the teachers, sometimes we hated the same teacher. But we never never even considered actually hurting her. It just was not done.

When did this change?

I find this story so deeply disturbing.

8 year old kids should not be planning on how to attack, restrain, and kill their teacher. They should be planning on how to play ball or something.

These kids need
1. To be locked up where they can't hurt anyone
2. To undergo some extensive psychological treatment. They are very mentally ill, and most certainly a threat to society.
3. The parents of these criminals need to be fully investigated. There has to be a cause and I would look first to the parents.

Bad parenting, parents and teachers not being able to discipline their children, correcting bad behavior with medication vs the old fashioned way, no respect for authority or elders, instant gratification culture, not letting kids play tag or other games because they might get hurt, giving awards or trophies out for failure (which isn't the way the world works kids), the promotion of sexuality in kids before they are ready (have you seen the clothes they sell for little girls so you can make your 8 year old daughter look like a stripper or those Bratz dolls for girls), society placing less and less emphasis on gender rolls due to political correctness, etc. I could go on and on and on but this is what is screwing up kids.

Much of this is has been caused by left thinking policy makers, ACLU lawyers, college professors who have in the last 40 - 50 years slowly chiped away at our founding principles and made political correctness, the feminization of our society, the devaluation of morals, and deemphasis of our judeo-christian way of life their main goals.
