Videos Show Fights at Texas School

Earlier, I wrote a blog about the fights that took place between students at a Texas school. The unusual thing was that the fights were organized by the teachers. When the students were mad at each other, the faculty made them fight in steel cages to work out their issues. Recently, videos taken on cell phones revealed mentally disabled children fighting at another Texas school, Corpus Christi State School. The videos were taken by employees. They were the ones that organized it. In the videos, you can hear the emplyees egging the students on as they fight each other. Six employees now face criminal charges. Many others were fired.

I think this is horrible. Teachers are there to help and teach us, and here they are condoning fighting between students. Also, these students are mentally disabled. It is horrible how these disabled children are treated. They are told to fight with one another and don't know not to do otherwise. Now videos are out there for the whole world to see these children and this is going to greatly affect their families. I believe more consequences should be taken towards these employees. They deserve far more than what the got.
