The world has gone completely mad. Every day we see more evidence of this.

Bleeding out students are OK though.

Good for the hero. My only complaint might be that he didn’t hold the knife wielding bully while the other kid called 911 to have the bully arrested.

Couldn’t they just use chemical castration instead, and let him remain in school?

This is what you get when constantly chastised by “the authorities” NOT to do anything but to call them/LEOs. You’re not a professional so should never try to do their job.

what is even more mad is that parents are willing to send their kids to these indoctrination centers called public schools, rather than living more poorly and at least protecting their most important part of their lives!

S.O.W., also known as the SWC (Status of Women Canada, a federal government organization in Canada) strikes again. No “male” heroes allowed. Coming soon, to a government school closer to us.

Now, if there’s someone brandishing a knife at that teacher, students and others will know to butt out, right?

It's incredible to me, and appalling, the depths to which our society has fallen in my lifetime. Thank you very much for the reference to C.S. Lewis, One Winged Shark. In my youth, we were reading works of his, G.K Chesterton, and others.

We knew what men were back then - what's being indoctrinated in our schools now is something else.

‘In the time it would have taken him to go get a teacher, could that kid’s throat have been slit?’ She said yes, but that’s beside the point. That we ‘don’t condone heroics in this school.’ ”
***This is freeping unbelievable. Is this the onion? Does this school condone a kid pulling a knife on the other kid?

How do we reach these administrators to give them raspberries and how do we reach this kid to give him kudos?

Fire every adult associated with harassing this boy. And make sure they can never work around any young people ever again.

So this teacher witnessed the attack and did nothing to stop it? What a coward.

So it is clear the infestation has crossed our northern border and Canadian schools are toast too.

Maybe someone could drive dozens of gallons of highly combustible liquid onto the school premises in a device that can generate huge amounts of kinetic energy.

That crap happens EVERY day, by the HUNDREds, because teachers drive cars to school.
