A black student charged of racial threats at a suburban high school.

I live in the Seaholm-zoned area, and so was very disturbed to hear of this. Glad to hear the kid was caught.

Supposedly a special-ed student, and had some beef with other students. Really unfortunate how he choose to express his anger, but teenagers [[especially male teenagers) are often idiots.

Ironically, they are going to charge him with a hate crime.

The bigger problem with this idiot's actions is that it may cause folks to question other legitimate cases of racism.

I think I'm most annoyed at how the media is trying to blow up this story during May sweeps particularly WDIV. They are the ones trying to play the race card and make you believe that everyone in Birmingham or more or less at this high school is racist.

It one idiot which shouldn't pass judgement on the other 1,000 students at this school, that is one of the best public high schools in the state, if not the nation.

There are about 80 black students at Birmingham Seaholm High School and 1134 white students. One black students wrote racial comments target black kids just for a RACE WAR! How stupid does that black student get. Most folks will NOT play race cards and we're tired of it. We Americans learn from the fear of terrorism and rise of school bullies and criminal prosecution will happen to any prep who damages the school's reputation. Most public schools is property of the federal government. Damaging and borthering anyone on federal property will be arrested to the fullest extent of the law. Even into federal prison [[ there will be little or no plea deals on federal crimes on the act of foreign or domestic terrorism.)
