NO arrests. These kids:

walked out of school illegally blocked traffic entered private property some climbed onto the roof of an apartment/duplex

The shooting: happened over the weekend not on school property was gang related

...and the school district applauds this crap, along with the media.

But blame the NRA.

Would it be cynical of me to notice that these kids sure find a lot of reasons to be out of class lately?

Yes that statement has been recycled.

Anyone else see the irony, to say no justice no peace, chanted by those protesting violence??

It’s as if they are threatening violence, in their protests about their alleged concerns over gun violence. So if they don’t get their way, the response to anguish over violence, will be a violent response.

From that, plus the shootings happening at Liberty City, it’s likely the protesters were protesting what one group of them was doing to others of them. If they want to find the cause and the culprits, all they have to do is take a group picture and look carefully at it. Oh, and they need to include the Hogg thing in it.

How is a teacher supposed to take attendance these days with kids ‘walking out’ for every reason over and under the sun?
They should be called ‘The F Troop’!

So hoodrats marching out of school that they probably barely attend, to whine about gun violence perpetrated by their banger homies, now rates as news? What a joke.

Thank Jesse & Al. The stupid stick has nailed Northwestern! But, it does have a great football program.

Eventually, the liberal administrators are going to regret engaging in this narrative.

Went to the school web site to verify - yep.

You can read about this high school's demographics, economics and student body here.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miami_Northwestern_Senior_High_School

Using data from the 2004, 2005, and 2006 school years, the study found that 59% of entering freshman had dropped out or transferred before their senior year. Only 41% of the entering class had progressed to earn diplomas. As of the 2010–11 school year, the graduation rate had doubled to 81%.

I doubt a lot of real learning is going on.

So, students can now just “walk out” of school on a whim, and the “adults” allow it to happen. Just close the &$# doors permanently for all I care.
