    Notebooks and pencils are pretty standard back-to-school supplies. But a new school item is being touted this year — the bullet-resistant backpack.https://usat.ly/2NXfhiL

        If this isn't an indictment of American society, I'm not sure what is . . .

        Selling bulletproof backpacks? How sad! Could the safety of schools be so bad, That parents must buy Such an item? Oh my! Are they needed, or just a mad fad?

        It’s funny how there are like zero school shootings in black schools. Think about that.

        1. School shootings aren’t funny; 2. The black community has a serious problem with young men killing each other... they just wait until after school.

        The white community have a huge problem with reality, truth and violence. it is funny that all of you folks first quote is black on black crime. Did they teach y’all that at the klan meeting or something ?

        I’m Hispanic... The black community seems to have a huge problem with victim mentality. You have no qualms making racist generalization about white people, but you are unsettled when confronted with basic facts about violence in the black communities.

        Okay klans man. I don’t want you to have to use all of your Fox News talking points in one conversation. I am not worried your remedial argument because I know truth will always win.
