Pennsylvania school stabbing

I'm glad this kid didn't have a gun.

The school had metal detectors...and still got two kitchen knives into the school. One child may not make it, according to local reports.

My kids came home from school yesterday quite shaken by what happened. My daughter is friends with one a family member of one that was slashed, and word of this swept through their school quickly.

What a nightmare...

You are that close? I had a rush of anxiety right as I heard the news yesterday. One parent to another I extend my sympathies to you, your family, and your community.

"And school resource officer William "Buzz" Yakshe was involved from beginning to end, from alerting police by radio about the chaos to being one of the stabbing victims to ultimately handcuffing the suspect."


I assume that this man was a police officer: if so, why didn't he shoot the crazy bastard?

Or this guy? "He did so after seeing the alleged assailant stab Sgt. John Resetar, a school security guard, in the stomach, according to a criminal complaint."

Another case where SOMEBODY responsible in the school and carrying a firearm, could have shot this nutcase. Also a good example of how easy it is to terrorize w/o a gun. Kinves can be put into action quickly...and the carnage is usually severe

kudos to the assistant principal.........

I know people of the same last name as the perp who are much older and live in my township and have kids who live in Plum and have children of this age.

Exactly true. Nearly all the mass violence is committed by people on prescribed medication for psychic imbalance of one sort or another. The unintended consequences of drug interactions is poorly understood. It's mostly a crap shoot to keep 'em sedated.

Close enough that their school and our school play in the same conference. My son's history teacher from last year now teaches there. We're roughly 30 miles from there. My daughter's boyfriend has family there.

Stuff like this is fairly common in China.

I wonder how many more incidents like this have to happen in schools before the limp wristed school boards grows a pair and hires armed security guards?



Newtown correctly (and quietly) fixed the problem after lambasting the NRA for suggesting exactly what they did, go figure...

In our modern society we won't lock crazy people up, we just drug them so this is what your going to get. Especially with the mass media coverage which "glorifies" it in their sick minds.
