A 14-year-old student threatened to bring an Uzi to Chesapeake Science Point Charter School last week and kill everybody in the school, an employee said.

Employees’ complaints have ranged from being repeatedly hit by apples, balls and chairs, to hearing students talk of raping and killing each other, to being threatened with being urinated on.

Lofty goals... does he understand the logistics and planning that would take? And with an Uzi? Big dreamer there.

I wonder how much the NEA paid Mr. Josh Kowalkowski to write this article.

Start allowing corporal punishment again and watch this crap get nipped in the bud too. Threaten to p*ss on a teacher?? 20 whacks on the butt with a big wooden paddle drilled with holes so that little Johnny's butt hurts him for the next two days.

It's worked for millennium, pain is one of the greatest attention getter and attitude adjuster there is, let these people start using it like nature intended.

Even if he had killed “only” a fraction of the total population of the school, it would have been a tragedy.

I have my doubts that corporal punishment would be the answer in today’s world. Whack a kid in the butt on Tuesday, get shot in the face by the same kid on Wednesday. Payback time. That’s the way it seems to work these days, all too often.

I think the answer begins at home. And with the morals of society as a whole.

Won't happen. Pain is only for kids who won't complain to parents that will bring lawsuits. Meaning, unborn "fetuses".

Students look at education the way that liberals look at the Constitution.

We need serious students and serious constitutionalists.

Maybe they should let him wear a dress and lipstick to school. Maybe he’s just repressed.

Ten to one the boy is being raised by a single mother, or by Grandma.

That kid would likely do more damage to the ceiling than anyone in front of him with an Uzi. Inexperienced people with automatic firearms are dangerous, but also funny to watch and easy to pick off.

Indeed. If there is any sort of father figure in that kid's life, it's probably a "funny uncle."

20 whacks on the butt with a big wooden paddle drilled with holes so that little Johnny's butt hurts him for the next two days - Dad used one of those too often; one suffers for years not two days. On the bright side, I would never use one on my children.

14 years old and thinks he can get an Uzi. That's publik skoolin at its finest.

Vector Arms UZI,
Full Size UZI Pistol. Semi-Auto, 9mm.

$659.00
Hope he saved his lunch money. /s

btw, It seems by the article that Baltimore Schools are a quagmire, violence it out of control. When do the Dems say we should pull out?

This isn’t one of those Charter Schools that’s actually a muslim madrassa in disguise is it?

[ScratInTheHat]

Today’s corporal punishment should be boot camp schools.

Get suspended and it means a ticket to the boot camp for two weeks.

It’s the only way you can do it with the libs keeping you from spanking.

[Abathar]

It can be abused with too much use, but just the right amount of use can have a dramatic effect on a kid who has never been disciplined before.

Like I think most of these are.

[SF Republican]

It can be abused with too much use I dearly love my parents but he would be thrown in jail today for child abuse.

If he's an aspiring gang-banger, there's a fully stocked weapons pipeline readily available, and he knows it.

Hope he saved his lunch money. /s

Steady crack sales would cover $700 with little difficulty.
Pimp his ho and he's got enough to cover the ammo to boot.

Death is good. /s

Connecticut suspends an honor's student for buying a pack of Skittles from another kid.

Baltimore's kids are threatening to kill, rape, and otherwise harm along with hitting teachers with apples and they're at a loss???

Answer: Expel any child who threatens to commit a crime against a student or teacher ... AND require mandatory in-hospital psychiatric care (paid for by the parents).

apple popping a teacher --> file a criminal complaint for assault, expel kid, let the law decide whether jail or psychiatric facility.
