Should be reposted every single day - as well as sent to all the liberal rags.

The teacher sounds like a good man at heart. But as for the writer of the piece, There’s not a lot of heroism in attempting suicide daily as a profession.

Yet I’ve seen the sentiment here that it’s bigotry to refer to these people as animals.

Actually, while it isn’t bigotry, it really isn’t fair to animals, since I don’t know of such behavior from them.

Just a note: while relevant and timely this OP by Gregory Kane, was from August 2013.

Sadly, Gregory Kane passed away from cancer in February 2014.

I had the great pleasure of meeting and speaking with Mr. Kane on several occasions, including at a writer’s conference held by the Baltimore Writer’s Alliance on which I was serving on the board, and often read his columns and listened to him when he was a guest on the Ron Smith radio show on WBAL. Sadly Ron Smith also died from cancer a few years ago.

Wickham: Gregory Kane never backed down from a fight

Supposedly Frederick is a cancer cluster but I hadn’t heard that about Baltimore.

These feral students have no need for education. The illegal drug industry pays better than most jobs that require a college degree. A street pusher can work their own hours, has the support of the gang, makes tax free income, gets working capital through robbery or pimping, helps the local economy and lines the pockets of the local politicians. The hood is good.

Thanks for the re-post.

You have to see it and experience this behavior to truly understand how tragic it truly is for this country. The teachers in Chicago's Public School system are not what they used to be, but heck I wouldn't put myself at risk on the South and West sides of Chicago, so I won't say another word. Like the Baltimore teacher said, we need better students. I believe we also need better parents and better citizens.

That did look a little oddly put. Maybe it was intended as “on the bathroom floors”

I mean either someone boldly sticks his neck out for the truth and gets blasted by you for being a suicide, or else is more lukewarm than this and is thus a “lesser evil.”

I suggest you cancel your lessons in Satan’s school, OK?

I keep telling you I’m awesome. But if you want to go on another “Get one over on Normie crusade today, I’m not interested in playing. So do it alone.
