so I have trouble comprehending the idea that a group of nine year olds could plan an entire elaborate murder plan on their own... like everyone has been saying, when I was in third grade, I was worried about my newest crush and playing with my american girl dolls. That's scary that kids can believe that these things and ideas are okay... I don't want to blame it completely on movies, tv, etc. because those are out for adults to see, not kids. I think that if parents dont want their kids to see something, they should block the channel or not allow them to see that movie. So however the kids learned these ideas, whether it was from watching the news too much and hearing about school shootings or they watched a movie that was too mature of a subject for them to fully understand..... it is so sad. How will the police deal with these kids, does anyone know? They are minors....but definitely had the tools they needed to complete their task or murdering their teacher. I wonder what the parents are thinking...and the teacher. Wow.
