Strange thing about all these so-called tragedies. Where are the class clowns, the jokers, the cynics? All the children in Sandy Hook and now Joseph-Koenig High School are so weepy and sensitive, and instantly bond with their peers over tragedy? It doesn't make any sense, whatsoever. It's like the whole 9/11 story — trying to make everyone bond over some collective disaster. It didn't stop gang wars, murders, political differences, fist fights or anything like that. It didn't sequester humor, either. Not even for a
milisecond after the reports, since people were joking about life before, during and after. If anything, misunderstandings and public consensus seem to have gotten worse in the typical trend of aging empires. Negotiations, diplomats — all gone in favor a technocratic iron fist enforcement of artificial "peace" through looming threats of State sanctioned violence.
But
none of the children, in smallish-medium sized cities, have anything bad to say about authority? Everyone feels equal and fairly treated by the system that deems for them what is or is not important? Yeah right! That really sounds like teenagers.

In the perps' dreams!
It's like they are trying to enforce through poorly simulated example, even above and aside from all the ruckus about the fake Psy-Op events, a kind of gargantuan "shushing" of any complaints about the system at large, or even its sycophantic tendrils in towns that wish they were connected to Federal revenue streams.
All the children just gather and hug and cry? No kid is concerned about their social status? No kid just uses it as an excuse to go home? No kid snickers about bracelets or stupid toys during a dry speech? Bollocks. No kid is seething with hormonal Euro angst and just says rude iconoclastic things for the sake of attention? Fuck you, news. You're not even
close to painting reality.
The pictures the news conjures of the gatherings are completely unrealistic with any elementary or high school experience I can recall or remember or feel the repercussions of in
every single person I've met who has ever gone to any sort of mass education system, except perhaps a response by home-abused conformists to the most top-down, preppy, overly organized affairs by school authorities — and even those, some of the most nerdy, jocky and preppy sheep whispered about, mocked, escaped the mandatory events or just generally made refreshing cynical comments about the double standards of the thing.
Where is the diverse humanity in these children — the responses to injustice, the moments of humor, or any complex emotions at all, the tuning out entirely and focusing on one's self as children and swelling adolescents are wont to do?
What the fuck is with reports strictly focusing on those who frown, offer predictable quips
for no discernible reason other than it gets them the attention of authorities (and no reports on the suspicious character of these overly-ready-to-conform children, either), those who stand still, obediently mourn, occasionally bust out in inexplicable tears that are then reported in depth before the body's natural balancing mechanisms offer the teary-eyed individual some clarity and reflection? For the news, their unstated goal is clearly to be to create unease and a lack of resolution. In short, terrorism.
News
is fucking terrorism. So which of the government's military is going to start aiming missiles and drones at the news stations? If the empty war-heads in Washington were serious about this "War on Terror" malarkey, they would have publicly declared the news their possession on 9/11,
but it has been totally theirs all along, for several decades now. And it was at least partially in their control for centuries before that. The idea that they actually want a true defeat of all terror is a total and complete
farce.
Everything is reported as
purposely unresolved as possible so that the functionary can receive her stamp of approval from the security apparatus, the building gets its check and the beneficiaries walk off flipping the bird to anyone who would resist the technofascist empire from taking over the minds of yet another small cadre of cowards and fools.
Does this make any sense whatsoever in a school setting: the dour-faced adults acting like it's time to mandate a period of mourning rather than even
attempting to cheer people up and offer hope, and the children all agreeing —
"Yes, please, give us some discipline and can I have another please sir and/or madam freakshow"?
Does the reported story of peoples' behavior at any of these post-tragedy travesties make any bluddy fecking sense as a full picture of events?
I'll tell you whether it makes any sense to me, based on my experience and my interactions with thousands of people who have actually experienced institutionalized public or private education — many of who have shared their salty impressions of the disastrously flawed school systems — not to mention anyone ever home schooled on any level :
NOPE!
Sorry for my rant, but it's just absolutely absurd that people are accepting and swallowing every comedy story thrown at them, and the fact that people are embracing their own defeat to the bastards — with "sobs" no less! — gives me shudders of the lugubrious violence-obsessed "Nature Channel" pronouncements on predator-prey relations. This is one thing all of us can talk about with absolutely every one around us from all walks of life, regardless of any details we uncovered or any other discussion of fakery:
the news media's blatant disregard for a full range of diverse and human responses to a given news event!

Anyway, I have a question. What is the deal with this concept of "Crisis Manager"? I would be interested to hear if anyone here has ever had to be raised in a school with someone other than the principal acting as "crisis manager". It sounds like a truly useless fictional concept dreamed up by idiots.
