Santa Rosa Police Chief John Cregan confirmed in a press conference on Wednesday afternoon that a 16-year old student died in a stabbing in a classroom inside Montgomery High School. He said that two students entered an art class at 11:11 a.m. and approached a freshman student, who then pulled out a folding knife with a blade of about four to five inches.
I see no race mentioned, so I am going to assume it's the usual suspects...not that I didn't the second I read the title.

DeleteGiven the demographics could be hispanics.

knife
Deletesounds like a gang encounter to me. They did not say if the two students that came in had the class. They brought their hands to a knife fight.
ReplyDeleteMHS gets high grades for diversity.
ReplyDeleteI remember when Dutch Rubs were the epitome of school violence, but that was in the 50s when schools were still segregated and the only things in my school that were black were the boards on the wall.
ReplyDeleteWe didn Indian burns. Probably not even allowed to mention that anymore.

They still should be segregated
DeleteSeems they'd have learned (if they were ever going to) by then that NOT attacking someone leads to NOT being stabbed.... Damn shame he didn't finish off the 2nd attacker.

DeleteSo two gang bangers thought they were going to bully another younger kid...again. Guess he had enough of it and came prepared. Not seeing the downside to this,
ReplyDeleteThat's funny. I moved to Pembroke Pines Fl. from the Philly suburbs in 1976 and that put me in 10th grade. I had long hair and right after I got here, a redneck kid had a real problem with me. He was the captain of the wrestling team. I kept hearing that he wanted my ponytail hanging from the rear-view mirror of his pickup.
ReplyDeleteI told (and showed) everyone I that I had a knife - a Buck 110. I told everyone that I'm from Philly and I wasn't afraid to use it. The fucking fag NEVER confronted me. Thank god...
Let me guess: He was released to his parents later that afternoon.
ReplyDeletehell, back in philly knife fighting was the rule in the late 1960-early 1970's
ReplyDeletewhen I joined the army and had hand to hand training, I tossed the guy "teaching" the class on his ass 3 times in a row. same deal with knife fighting part. gang fights where a common fact of life back then. learned the value of metal trash can lids too. it was the reason you found a lot of inner city philly guys in airborne and other units. we grew up doing that shit everyday.
