Array ( [sid] => 13658 [catid] => 1 [aid] => Mick [title] => SAVE OUR CHILDREN [time] => 2003-03-03 16:20:00 [hometext] => [bodytext] => YES IM MAD AS HELL
IM WATCHING OVER MY SON
WHY DO YOUR PARENTS LET
YOU CARRY A GUN

YOU GO TO MY SONS SCHOOL
YOU PICK ON ALL THE SMALL KIDS
WELL IM NOT LIKE THE OTHER
PARENTS I WILL NOT STAND FOR
THIS

I TALKED TO THE PARENTS
TO THE PRINCIPAL TO THEY
SAY YOU ARE A TROUBLE STUDENT
THEY DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO

YOU ARE A SIXTEEN YEAR OLD BOY
CARRY AROUND A GUN
THREATING TO SHOOT STUNDENTS
AND NOTHING BEING DONE

POLICE SAY THEY CANT DO ANYTHING
THE CANT GO BY HERE SAY
SO THIS IS WHAT IM UNDERSTANDING
A STUDENT MIGHT DIE TODAY

SOME SAY IM OVER REACTING
BUT WHAT IM I SUPOSE TO DO
WHEN MY CHILD COMES HOME
AND TELLS ME WHAT THIS CHILD
HAS BROUGHT TO SCHOOL

DO THEY NOT WATCH TV
ITS ALWAYS ON THE NEWS
HOW MANY MORE STUDENTS
HAVE TO DIE BECAUSE A
STUDENT BROUGHT A GUN TO
SCHOOL

YOU THINK THIS CANT HAPPEN
AT YOUR CHILDS SCHOOL
BUT IT DOES HAPPEN AND
NO WANTS TO LISTEN TO YOU

I DONT THINK IM OVER REACTING
SOMETHING HAS TO BE DONE
BEFORE ANOTHER CHILD DIES
BY THE HANDS OF ANOTHER CHILD
WITH A GUN

I really don't know what to say but I don know it takes a community to raise children now-a-days, it sounds like the child with the gun needs guideance, of out that school though, keep pressing for answers remember you pay their wages,
