School discipline... Texas style!

Post by rgrokelley »

A Texas high school used cage fights to settle disputes among problem students, internal investigation documents obtained by The Dallas Morning News allege.

The principal and other staff at South Oak Cliff High School in Dallas repeatedly put students in a steel utility cage located in a section of the boys basketball locker room to battle it out — with their bare fists and without head protection, the documents show.

A 2008 investigation within the Dallas school district's Office of Professional Responsibility found that then-principal Donald Moten and other school officials "knew of the practice, allowed it to go on for a time, and failed to report it."

This takes me back to my freshman yr in high school. There I was. A young student eager to be accepted amongst my fellow high school classmates. My older brother had graduated the yr prior to my arrival and he had left me some friends and enemies too.

So one day while waiting in the chow line this fuck head walks up behind me and says, “Hey, you are Johnny Moore’s little brother”. Now I am thinking this guy is an ally but quickly discover my older brother had fucked with him on more than one occasion. As we are moving forward in line his berating gets worse and at one point literally kicks me in the ass. He was older and bigger so there was some hesitance on my part to defend myself. As I approach the meal trays, they are those thick hard molded plastics ones with separate compartments for food; I grab mine, one hand on each corner and turn around bust Mr. Fucking Bully right in the mouth. Prior to being almost knocked the fuck out he was kind of turned sideways talking to his buddy behind him and I had excellent Enfilade.

So once Mr. Fucking Bully found himself on his back I straddled him and started gouging his face with the edge of the tray till it slipped out of my hands and I transitioned to straight lefts while I had a hand full of hair. It took awhile but people some how managed to remove my fist from his face and we were escorted to the principal’s office. Now the principal, he and I had known each other for yrs. He was my principal in elementary school and now in high school. As we sit down I see for the first time Mr. Fucking Bully looks bad, real bad. The worst damage was a slight tear in his left nostril. Every time he would breathe blood bubbles would come out of it. So the principal starts in on how fighting doesn’t solve shit blah, blah, blah and how he isn’t going to put up with 4 more yrs of dealing with another Moore. I pipe up and tell him to ask Mr. Fucking Bully if he is ever going to fuck with me again? Thru the blood bubbling out his nose, whimpering he replies in a defeated voice, no. I tell the principal that fighting does solve problems and this guy will never fuck with me again, any questions? And I walked out.

Maybe you should have waited until you had your tray full. Carrots and blood go well together.

His name was Murry. center for the BB team...about 6 '3 190.

I was a sophmore in high school at the time. 6'1 and about 155 wringin wet.

He comfronted me for some precieved slight commited that day in the parking lot of the school and proceeded to tell me how he was going to whip my ass fequent, deep and wide. I never said a word....I just smiled up at him while he ranted....I never stepped back. (the old man had on more than one occation threatend me with death if I started shit at the school, I was much more afraid of him.) After he blew himself out, he told me he didnt have time today but mine was comming.

Mc donalds was the place tohgang out in the small town I grew up in and I knew he would be there. so before leaveing I dropped a grenade simulator in my pocket. ( yep high school) See I had a good friend of mine that was in 3-75 at the time....(on this forum) He taught me that if you bore a small hole in the side of the simulator and fill the empty space up with Black powder it make a really big boom.

Sure enough he was sitting in his red cammero....I casually walked up to it said "whats up murry ?" and rolled it under his car.....it bounced the car around a little and started a small fire in the parking lot.....very satisfying.

I got back home about 10 minutes before the cops came ....Dad answered the door .....and confirmed that I had been watching Miami Vice the whole time....

He never botherd me again ....then again ...no one did.
