This is what happens in a red state where biblethumpers, rightwingers,

WAYCROSS, GA -- It's the type of news you don't expect to hear coming
out of an elementary school.
Nine third grade students suspended at Center Elementary in Waycross
for an alleged plot to attack their teacher.
"This plot was uncovered at the point that something dangerous was
brought to the school," says Lt. Dwayne Caswell with Waycross Police.
Police say the students were hatching a plan to harm their teacher
Friday morning. They even brought items from home to carry out the
plan.
"They had a broken steak knife, a crystal paper weight, toy handcuffs,
several items and tape and stuff," says Lt. Caswell.
Early Tuesday, the Waycross Police Department released photos of some
of those items. They include the knife, handcuffs, and gloves.
Ware County School officials say a classmate told the principal about
one of the students bringing a weapon to school. The discovery was
later made that more students were in on the plot. The school says
it's a matter they are not taking lightly.
"Some might say 'They were young and in the third grade and how
serious could it be?', but anytime our students' safety or our
teachers' safety is compromised we obviously have to take that very
seriously," says Theresa Martin with Ware County Schools.
The school district says all the students are suspended until further
disciplinary action is decided.
"We continue to do what we always do which is work to make our
students aware that this is not appropriate and we ask our parents to
help us. The whole saying that it takes a village to raise a child is
very appropriate at this time," says Martin.
Police say no criminal charges will be brought forth against the
students.
The District Attorney is handling the case and students will most
likely face juvenile charges of Unruly Child.
