Time to ban prom?

First they want to ban guns....then knives...If they would ban PROM this would have been prevented.

A junior at the school told FoxNews.com that a teacher who witnessed the attack said Sanchez was asked to the prom by the attacker inside a stairwell at the school. Sanchez, who has a boyfriend, said no to the date, and the suspect began to strangle her, the student said. He pushed her down a flight of stairs and stabbed her.

It's a good thing he wasn't of drinking age!

We have to think of the children!

[ALPHAGRIZ1]

How much more blood must be on the hands of the left before they start protecting our children in schools?

How many more innocent children must die before they take the initiative to arm all teachers and give our kids a fighting chance? When will the madness stop?

Looks like Sanchez brought a knife to a girlfight

He's dirty, that Sanchez.

[AZGrizFan]

That teacher should be drawn and quartered.

The parents of the kid that stabbed that chick will sue because the school "laid their hands on ma baby"

.......and win.

That wouldn't fly here in Cali. We recently had a long-time teacher and wrestling coach who defended himself against a known drug dealer who was selling in his classroom. No punches were thrown, but the superintendent went off half-cocked and suspended him on the spot, describing his actions as "inappropriate." Everyone there knew the dealer started the altercation after the teacher tried to break up the sale. The kid and one other were arrested for the obvious drug stuff AND for assault. Later on, the superintendent backtracked from her earlier comments after she found out how stupid it sounded, particularly given cell-phone video that proved that the teacher was only engaging in self-defense. She tried to cover it up by claiming that he was never "suspended," but merely on "paid administrative leave" pending an internal investigation, which took place over spring break. The teacher never lost any classroom/practice time, but that had to be one of the most stupid things I've ever heard of. Backing a student (and long-known drug dealer) over a 20+ year teacher who never had allegations of any kind against him is ludicrous to the nth degree.
