LAKE CHARLES, La. (KPLC) - A video of a pep rally at a high school in Calcasieu Parish is stirring up comments from local residents.
The video, which some viewers may find inappropriate, features dancers from LaGrange High School and another student dressed in the attire of the school’s rival, Washington Marion.
A student in the center is seen sporting a fake knife and pretends to cut the neck of the student dressed as the opponent.
“I saw enough and it’s not pleasant for the eye,” said Floyd Patton, a grandmother in the Lake Area.
“It’s scary for me as a grandmother, to think about what my grandchildren... but its a different age,” Patton said. "I think there’s enough violence in the world without bringing it into the school systems.”

Sounds like good old fashioned school spirit to me.

I figured most of the kids from Marion and Lagrange would have been expelled by this point in the school year.

This is one of those things where everyone who was involved was dumb, and everyone who is offended is dumb. There are no sides to take here.

I'll just be in the corner clutching my pearls.

I notice that it's not the kids that are bothered by it, but the boomer parents and grandparents.

As progressive as it is to identify as a grandmother named Floyd, I would have thought she would be interested to see a reenactment of one of the religious practices of another culture/.

Outrage culture and the global social-media platform just makes everything worse.

People are such pussies. I feel like TD is the only place I can relate to people online now.
