If the playground is too big for the teachers to monitor, they need to restrict the area where the kids can play or abolish recess.
How can a play ground be that big that nearly a dozen students forcibly leading another student off can't be spotted? Just thinking of that in my head looks suspicious. And I sure remember play grounds in schools when I was a kid and they weren't even a half acre in size. I find it hard to believe that play grounds in Massachusetts are bigger than ones in Texas. And it's even harder to believe that the teacher supposedly watching the kids on recess didn't notice that many kids missing, or hear anything in the time the poor little guy was getting his clock cleaned. He had to be screaming. I doubt he was biting on a leather bit. Some adult was complicit in this. There is no way these kdis just did this on their own. Not at that age. Not possible. My wife's a teacher and she can't even imagine how this is possible, and based on her psychological training, she doesn't believe kids of that age range are capable of that without adult coaxing either. Even liberal brain washing doesn't account for that. SOMEONE of the 20 or up age persuasion had an active role in this somehow. I'd bet on it.
