frick you and your race baiting.
Race isn’t the issue here that it is in other cities bc there isn’t the economic disparity usually seen.
Chiming in to point out that your attempt to "tone police" or set the parameters of discussion is not only unacceptable in a marketplace of ideas, but is attempting to shut the barn doors after the horse has bolted.
We do not live (nor have ever lived) in a post-racial society. Nor has achieving one ever been a societal objective. This country is still grappling with a racial spoils system put in place by the political left in the 1960's, but also by their long-standing efforts to ruthlessly exploit race and divide people along racial lines in furtherance of their political objectives.
The society we live in says race matters, and further, that it is relevant in every situation.
Additionally, race cannot be both a "sword" and a "shield." For example, if it's acceptable to talk about race when a person is a victim (e.g., Botham Jean), then it shouldn't be out of bounds when Karmelo Anthony is the victimizer.

200,000 residents and 12 high schools, we have 65,000 in our community with 2 high schools.
Frisco ISD has a rule that a high school cannot exceed 2100 students 9-12.
Elementary school limit is around 800 and middle schools are 1000-1500. When a school hits a target enrollment number, another school begins to be built on existing city property with the goal of the new school opening before an existing school hits the max number.
Context is that our population has practically doubled since my son entered kindergarten and he’s graduating next month.

You should read all of the poster’s posts and my response becomes much less tone police and much more informed local fed up with a purposefully contrarian arse who perpetually moved the goal post when his expanding theories didn’t pan out.

Someone in the other thread on the MSB mentioned the attacker moved here from Baton Rouge a few years ago.
This would actually explain everything.

We don't put up with that shite 'round these parts.
I will say the odds of one lighting a building on fire in Texas is drastically reduced as compared to almost all other states.

Truthfully, this is one of the better areas around, so this is a bit of a gut check.
Prayers for the families of the area and especially for the parents of the young lad taken too soon.

Yeah. My senior son and I will be attending a memorial for a friend of his in the coming days. Majority of the community will be there. It’s devastating and unnecessary.

They were surrounded by coaches, athletes and school officials and the fight would have been broken up almost immediately. However, Karmelo pulled out a knife and stabbed Austin. He brought a knife onto school property during a sanctioned school event.
Did he already have the knife on him (not in bag but on his person or however it’s said)?
quote:After some earlier conflict he brought the knife to a track event for a reason and then stayed under another school’s tent even while it was instigating a new conflict with same person. It fits with others thinking that it’s a cultural issue and one most kids in FriscoISD aren’t prepared to deal with - a conflict that escalates so quickly like that to a life or death situation. Many still think there are rules and a respect for life involved in an argument, with some pushing & shoving, or even with a fight that will not be adhered to by some. Most kids going to FriscoISD go into a fight thinking in terms of winning a competition not killing anyone or fighting for their own lives.
When I say that race didn’t contribute to this crime, I mean that Karmelo likely would have stabbed Austin under these exact same circumstances no matter what his race was. This was a situation that was brewing over a couple days.
When my wife and kid go to Baton Rouge without me I try to remind my kid that the blacks he has known or has been friends through multiple schools are not the same as the blacks he will interact with during trip to Baton Rouge or New Orleans area. The blacks he has been around were focused on school, good kids, came from 2 parent homes, and those parents were educated and professionals, but the most likely scenario with BR & NO was dealing with blacks who had none of those attributes along with a complete lack of respect for life including his.

Black male aggression is often fetishized and celebrated in sports and the X-rated industry but there's very much a dark side to it. Way too many of them do not have basic conflict resolution skills so it basically destroys them from the inside out.
BALANCE IS KEY! Not too much not too little! Any signs of bad conflict resolution skills, RUN!!! 99% of the time the red flags are there: tattoos, known drunk, heavy smoker, sagging pants, creepy charm, loves violent rap music, and football player

This is the discussion my son and I had today. I grew up in NOLA and he grew up here. Two entirely different worlds. Given the high socioeconomic environment and that this involved 2 FISD athletes (which means both had at least a 3.0 gpa), this just isn’t something my son and other FISD students are prepared for. Even growing up in nola but parenting in Frisco I was unprepared. Truly just a gut punch.

Even good areas are at risk for violence when one segment of the population glorifies ghetto culture and violence while lacking impulse control. This same kid in Frisco acts no different than a kid in Baltimore, just has a little more money to spend

Couldn’t this also be in Denton County? If so, he’s going to fry.
He is 17. He can’t be fried. He is being charged as an adult.
Both schools and more importantly the stadium where the murder happened are in Collin County. I don’t know the zones anymore, but given that the county line is fairly close to the school (basically follows tollway right there until it curves east) it is possible the victim could have resided in Denton. That just depends on how the school boundaries are drawn, but the murder took place in Collin county.

is the point of your existence in this thread to shite on the city of Frisco?
Actually no. I love Frisco. I have spent quite a bit of time there, along with Plano.
But the residents define elitism with their attitudes that suggest life is perfect there. It is not. It is not the ghetto, but it comes with its own set of problems that you don't find in the ghetto. There is definitely a problem there with teen suicide, but that falls on the shoulders of the parents, not the city itself.

I'm Black and grew up in BR. Even my Black parents and grandparents 20 years ago were weary of me hanging around Black kids from certain schools and neighborhoods. I endorse this message.
But the only thing you are forgetting to mention or maybe you don't know b/c you're not Black is that today a lot of the middle class suburban Black kids from picture perfect homes idolize gangsta culture so even though on paper their lifestyle don't align but their spirit and minds do. So he gotta be careful with that too. Often these white boyz want "street cred" to impress a certain type of girl, piss off their parents, or gain more popularity so they seek out gangsta Black guy friends and that can be dangerous. If your son is around Black kids (or anybody honestly) who like the NBAYoungBoy, Kodak Black, Pooh Shiesty, on and so forth ... he needs to watch his back and keep his distance ... that music is super demonic and is brainwashing these kids to be even bigger foolish losers .... it got Black boys in a chokehold which is why they crash out in life at the crazy high rate they do

Yeah, I am in Frisco but purposely built in Denton Co. Back then, there was a significant difference in property tax rates between Denton & Collin and this area was the “new” Frisco. Truthfully, there’s no difference across the city no matter which county you are considered part of. Zero difference.

Are you talking about the one that wants to implement Shira law, discriminate on who can live there, and has 2 separate ranches with with one building some multiplex housing and the other didn’t have plans spelled out that I saw in articles I read. I waiting to read a description that fits something that could be easily used for training.
I see you have been reading / listening / watching MSM.
Do you believe everything you read / hear / see from MSM sources?

I think this is what our community is struggling with intellectually today. Most of us have always believed that education, income and community culture protected us from this regardless of race. This week we learned that’s not the case.

That's never been the case. Biden and Trump both had privileged sons who went to top wealthy schools their whole life that still turned out to be drugged out divorced loser arse codependent messes that NEED Daddy's money and power to survive.
Hardly anything is what is it seems to be. A lot of acting and smoking mirrors
