: : Piper: Well, i don't think you can ascribe blame to the kid. In a way he's just as much a victim as the kid he shot. I mean his life is gonna be hell and he probably barely realises what he did.: DDN: I went to all that trouble to bash the principal but you think I'm bashing the kid instead? How did that happen? Maybe I wasn't clear: The KID is the "psycho", the principal is the "piece of cr_p".
: I'm not blaming the kid for anything accept for having a psychotic level of rage which I suspect many many children AND adults of having but for whatever reason somehow they manage to keep it from exploding and instead choose to die 20 years earlier of drug abuse, liver failure, cancer, or coronary arrest and/or suffer a lifetime of dysfunctional relationships. A six-year-old's priorities are "I need something", "I'm can't get it", "I'll express myself", "Ka-Blam!!!". You can't expect anything else from a six-year-old at the end of his rope.
: The principals priorities are: "My lame job", "My lame job", "My lame job", "The healing process", "random mass murder in public schools".
: In that order.

Piper: You called him a 'little psycho', so i assumed you were ascribing some sort of moral blame to him.
