yeah..one of my 1st grade kids (who is severely autistic, we're waiting for him to get placed but the city isn't doing it) is out of control. There was a loose piece of fiberglass on the cd player, so he took it off and threw it at my head. He was inching towards me with a fist. This kid could do some damage to me. He's really overweight and not that much smaller than I am, and i'm sure he weighs more than my 115 pounds.
These are just regular things that happen in schools in the worst neighborhoods of the country *sigh*

i couldnt say worse areas, just big city schools, you can find this in almost every school in miami, except maybe 2 or 3.
Some of the worst neighborhoods I have ever seen were in Birmingham, Alabama. The overall quality of life in that city sucks in general.
New Orleans neighborhoods are no suprise.
In Washington DC = Barry Fams, Trinidad, Washington Highlands (one third of the city's 181 homicides in 2007 occurred there.), Sursum Corda (used to be BAD but I think is going under redevelopment), Half street Carrolsburg/ Buzzard Point area, Greenleaf Gardens, ect ect ect. Those are some of the worst in DC.
Richmond VA you have Mosby, and some other nasty projects.

Stuff like that will happen in any big school, not just in bad neighborhoods. I lived in a city with a pop. of about 120k and our high schools had things just like that happen. In the first semester of one school year ,there were a record of over 100 fights, within the next two months of the next semester there were 40 fights. They had a call in the swat team to control a riot that started up one day.
He doesn't have to teach to know that this stuff goes on in a lot of big city school districts. Especially since he said he was in one. Miami has a higher crime rate than NYC so I'm sure they have plenty of bad schools as well.
That's like me telling someone that they don't know that fire is hot because they don't run into burning buildings like me.
Northeast DC (Trinidad section)..6 murders in 2 hours? 8 in a weekend..Were talking about one neighboorhood, which is not even the majority of northeast DC, its a relatively small neighboorhod in comparison to the neighboorhoods that you all have been naming so far..It might not be that decayed but as far as danger thats as bad as it gets for the US and im from West Baltimore..I know bad when I see it..
When has has a neighboorhood been so bad it made national news or single handledy put the entire city in a state of emergency?..Watts does it, but thats rioting..
but Gary, Indiania is the murder capital overall so..
Liberty City in Miami was on CNN for that big shooting that hit 9 and killed 2.
^^^Word
But has anyone ever notice that smaller cities/town outside of big cities are ussually worse of.
for example
Gary indiana - chicago
Newark NJ - NYC
Camden NJ - Philly
East ST. Louis IL - STL
WHOA. I never realized that. That's true. Why is that?

yeah, but its kinda normal there, the avg people hit in a shooting is 2-4. and im talking about every shooting. i remember just a few weeks ago before that, a baby and 3 men were hit with an ak47( which didnt make big news,just local) and the baby died with the intended target. the baby was a police dispatchers kid.
