Thank God your son is OK.
Yes, however, it isn't a possibility for many, unfortunately. It's just not.
Knife locks for all knifes!!!!
Valparaiso High School, my son's school. They had a half day today. The kid who did the slashing was overpowered by three teachers.

Thanks God your son is okay. Hang in there, it's going to work out.
I am thankful your son is OK! Hugs to you and thankful prayers going up.
(Prayers going out for the other kids too).
Thank you. I am having a bit of a hard time right now. I am somewhat disabled with arthritis and no longer drive. Am getting news from friends in the know. Valparaiso is an excellent school with many things to commend it. There is usually a police presence, due to the fact it is a huge school. My thoughts are kinda disjointed right now, but my thoughts are with the injured kids and their families. I hear none of the injuries are life threatening, but pretty bad, nonetheless.

Very glad to hear your son is unharmed. Such a frightening experience! You have many blessings to appreciate for Thanksgiving. Take care.
If he can play basketball, he may have a future with the Pacers.
I'm glad your son is OK. Have you managed to get your heart out of your thoat yet.
Prayers for the injured.
That is precisely what is happening in the UK. They've banned guns, crime has risen, now they want to ban knives. Next they will be banning sticks and stones.
If only there was a seven-day waiting period for knife purchases...
Do you know the name of the slasher?
What are they going to do about fists and boots?
What are they trying to do? Lure an NBA franchise into NW Indiana?
The cultural marxists have gotten these results from the last sixty five years of tearing America apart from the inside out. I believe the tide is turning with the young people of today. The young ones we have in Iraq are the Best of the Best. They are on the level of the WW2 generation with the way they are defending America. God Bless them ALL.
Our local paper has listed the names of the injured kids who have been taken to the hospital, but not the name of the kid who did it.

Oh no. My God-daughter goes there. I know the school well. I have to get on the horn. Prayers....
Thanks for the up to the minute reports. And thank God your son is ok - you will be too when he arrives home. Prayers for all involved.
Please give up an update when you can. Praying with you.
