these things happen because they're tolerated by pink haired school officials. in my school days if any of this had happened the weight of god would have descended upon them encouraging any others with similar thoughts to keep them to themselves. this stuff happens because its allowed to;

I taught high school in California from August 2009 through May of 2019. In Silicon Valley, I did not see any school safety officer on-site, but the Principal was a very large man who indicated once that he never saw any discipline problems when he was a classroom teacher.  The worst incident at this school that I witnessed was the tearing down of a cafeteria door by a small group of students when an award assembly ran long, and into the lunch period. The school provided breakfast to students, and those who arrived late brought their plates into the classroom, putting first-period teachers in the position of making students go hungry if the no food in classroom rule was enforced.

In Sacramento, I witnessed bullying by a group of girls in a “mobbing” attack. Afterward, the victim needed an escort to and from class, and there was an unarmed safety officer who provided the escort service when I called for him via the phone in my classroom. The aunt of one of the “mobbers” accosted and threatened me in the parking lot after school for reporting her niece for bullying. This incident was caught on a security camera in the parking lot, and I was told that this person would lose her privilege of being welcome at the school and at school events.

Here, fights occurring during the lunch period drew hoards of excited students who flocked to the scene of the fight, surrounding those who were fighting to cheer them on to greater violence.........more.........
