18-year-old SC student accused of plotting to bomb school  | |  What the heck is happening with our children!! Why do they think it is OK to blow up schools?!!! I just don't understand today's youth!
Article:
Students arriving Monday at a small South Carolina high school face newly installed metal detectors and extra police after a student was arrested in what authorities said was a plan to carry out a Columbine-inspired attack.
Bomb-sniffing dogs have already checked the hallways and classrooms at Chesterfield High School, authorities said. Metal detectors were borrowed from a courthouse.
The alleged plotter, Ryan Schallenberger, 18, was arrested Saturday. His parents called police after 10 pounds of ammonium nitrate were delivered to their home in Chesterfield and they discovered a disturbing journal.
"He seemed to hate the world. He hated people different from him — the rich boys with good-looking girlfriends," said the town's police chief, Randall Lear.
Schallenberger was one of the top students at the high school of about 580 students and had not caused any serious problems before his arrest, principal Scott Radkin said.
The school's Web site lists Schallenberger as a member of the 2007 academic bowl squad. He won an academic award from Newberry College in the last school year.

 icyorchid (1349) | 2 years ago | Hi Raven,
I haven't seen the one from earlier this week, so I don't know if it is the same or not.
I know I was guilty of not knowing what my daughter was up to when she was 15, I got a reality check real fast and my whole attitude changed!
I became manager of the place where I worked and I had so much to do, I also gave my daughter her first job. What I didn't know was she had a boyfriend (she was 15 and wasn't suppose to have one) also I didn't like the boy!
When I found out, it caused a LOT of problems between her dad and her, and myself and her. I didn't talk to my daughter for several days that's how upset I was at her and myself. If I had been paying attention to my child, NONE of that would have happened. I cut a long story short.
Anyway, after that, I now know my daughter, what she does, who she is with and she is now 25 years old and she still calls me and lets me know what is going on out of respect. Thank God she still has that respect for me.
I wish other parents were more attentive, then no one would have to worry about their children in school. | |

| | | 2. robsbrooklyngirl (3079) | 2 years ago |  I am not saying it was right what he planed to do, not in the least, but I think that for the most part bullies play a huge part in this. It has always been a case of the popular kids picking on the not so popular kids. After being picked on day in & day out, some students finally have had enough & lash out. Whether they bring guns to school or bombs. It's their way of fighting back. Now I am not saying that this always the case. In some cases the student just blames everyone & anyone else for their problems. The see other students as having everything, while they themselves have nothing. That seems to be the case here.

| icyorchid (1349) | 2 years ago | I agree with you, but there should be another way for them to handle it. In NO way should these kids be able to get the stuff they need for a bomb or be able to get a gun.
What has changed in that aspect over so many years? I mean our parents didn't do it, we didn't do it, why our kids? | |

| | 3.  ayumitakashi (2228) | 2 years ago |  Wow. You know what I kind of get scared everytime something like this happens. I'm in college and I keep hoping that something like this does not happen in my college. It's sad that these kids have to resort to violence and doing things like this. I think that one of the things in this are the bullies and the "cliques" that are in high school and college. These things are very destructive and can really damage these kids along with the stress of family and school. I hope that his parents just talk to him and get him some help so that he won't try and commit something like this again.

| icyorchid (1349) | 2 years ago | I hope nothing like that happens where you are too.
I hope the boy gets help, but he needs to be taught that this was not ok to think of doing too. | |
