This is what we have become, as society, just walk away. Don’t say anything. Don’t do anything. Let the kids kill themselves and don’t intervene. The adults are not responsible.

The child has (legal) protections that adult does not.

Here you go: 2 students holding the kid back while he’s still holding the knife.

I mean, why ever help as an adult at all, just let the kids handle it. WTAF is wrong with you?

And? What do you think this proves in the context of whether adult teachers should physically get involved in student fights?

Should the adults in the building just sit back and watch as one student stabs another to death? Is this the Hunger Games?

A lot of keyboard warriors....teachers are humans too. Would you jump in knowing you could die or go get the officer who has been trained on this? Maybe you'd jump in but also maybe not. This was horrible but society is a hateful messy place and you acting like a typical FCPS parent know it all help no one.

Let me be clear. No one is saying jump in but we are saying DON'T IDLY WALK BY. Thankfully there was a coach on hand who diffused the situation.

They should call for help--meaning physically go to the SRO's office, or the main office to alert the principal, and/or calling 911.
These are the adults that have the training and authority to intervene.
A poster here is being very vocal that they know for a fact that the substitute was no longer present when the knife was out--how do we know where the substitute was at that time or what he was doing? Is it possible that he was on his way to the SRO's office, principal's office, or a place where he could safely call 911? Is it possible that he took the photo so authorities could later identify the students who were involved in the fight? Seems logical to me.

No, the average teacher or another adult employee, should NOT physically intervene in a student fight.

So your answer is yes, an average teacher should just stand there and watch a student stab another to death. That’s not what the teacher saw because it hadn’t happened yet. But if it was, you’re cool with kids just killing each other. Literally. FML if this is the world I live in.

No, kid put the knife down. No kid don’t do it. No stop. No nothing. Let the kids handle it. They did. That’s what your answer is.

Also have you watched any of the videos? the sub could have called 911 or the SRO right then and there. He was comfortable enough to take a photo, smirk and casually walk away. He could have called/texted right then and there. Did he, no. Stop being an apologist and just be a better person. I cannot believe as a society we are just supposed to be ok with this.

100% agree. This is outrageous and people who are ok with this are either a) insanely desensitized to violence or b) so far removed from reality that this is just entertainment. DISGUSTING.

When I send my kids to school, I trust the adults in the building to do SOMETHING to keep my kids safe--and lazily walking by a crime scene without doing anything is not acceptable to me. What a rotten human.

1) Yes, we are very desensitized to violence. Both adults and kids. Guns are everywhere, people get shot every day, and we, as a nation, yawn and move on with our lives.

2) Heroes are few and far between. In both the adult world and the kid world. Luckily, there are a few out there. But the majority of people will not intervene. Even though we think we would respond admirably, in reality, when caught in a scary situation, most of us would just be a bystander.

YOU are the only one who cares enough about your kids to keep them safe. It's not what we want to believe, but it's the truth. If you "send your kids to school" expecting others to do YOUR job, you are a rotten parent.

So much is wrong with you. I don't even know where to start.

I'm not the one calling other people "rotten" for not doing MY job as a parent.

Oh so the kid who did the stabbing was the one who was on the floor getting kicked and hit by the red shit kid before someone pulled the red shirt off him.

No and that's a weird take. But anything more than what that man did would be acceptable. Even a panicked look or a frenzied attempt to quieten the scene or move kids away from it is better than what we have witnessed.

Is it possible that he was on his way to the SRO's office, principal's office, or a place where he could safely call 911? Is it possible that he took the photo so authorities could later identify the students who were involved in the fight? Seems logical to me.

No, the average teacher or another adult employee, should NOT physically intervene in a student fight.

So your answer is yes, an average teacher should just stand there and watch a student stab another to death. That’s not what the teacher saw because it hadn’t happened yet. But if it was, you’re cool with kids just killing each other. Literally. FML if this is the world I live in.

No, kid put the knife down. No kid don’t do it. No stop. No nothing. Let the kids handle it. They did. That’s what your answer is.

Also have you watched any of the videos? the sub could have called 911 or the SRO right then and there. He was comfortable enough to take a photo, smirk and casually walk away. He could have called/texted right then and there. Did he, no. Stop being an apologist and just be a better person. I cannot believe as a society we are just supposed to be ok with this.

100% agree. This is outrageous and people who are ok with this are either a) insanely desensitized to violence or b) so far removed from reality that this is just entertainment. DISGUSTING.

When I send my kids to school, I trust the adults in the building to do SOMETHING to keep my kids safe--and lazily walking by a crime scene without doing anything is not acceptable to me. What a rotten human.
