"And how in the WORLD do you come to the conclusion that a handful of students breaking the law warrants the risk of the lives of, and the terrorization of, ALL of them?"

Well, at least you didn't say they were pistol whipped.

The raid involved 107 students out of 2,760. As to terrorized, how many students in that school were terrorized by the drug dealing gang? Do you care?

"Several weeks ago, a student was arrested trying to pass out between 200 and 300 prescription pills, he said. After school ended Friday, one student threatened another and claimed to have a weapon."

This constitutes a "drug gang" to you? Oh, and I DID miss the part before about the "weapon"...the student only CLAIMED to have one, none is specified to have been found, and its type was never specified. So much for your breast-beating on that one.

No proof of any kind for any of the rest of the principal's claims is given. Oh, and they spoke of "ten students who come in on early busses". If they were some kind of "drug gang", why were they not stopped and rousted in the bus, thus preserving the safety of the rest of the students? Oh, that's right...they needed to "teach that lesson" to the rest.

I note that no one has claimed that students were terrorizing each other. However, the police gave them a "lesson" in how the pros do it.

Your hysteria and irrationality is showing in neon, RP.
