CRIMES
On dark nights, perhaps you‘ve traced
the stabbing cry, footsteps in the blood:
the solitary edge of our cross a thousand times
trampled,
heavy blows on the silent door,
the abyss or thunderbolt
that swallowed the assassin
when dogs bark and the violent police
enter among the sleeping
to forcefully twist the tear’s threads
plucking them from the terrified eyelid.
-Pablo Neruda.
“STOP THE FALSE CANADIAN SLOGAN WE ARE LOOKING FOR THE BEST INTEREST
OF CHILDREN” It is outrageous that the police in
complicity with the school authorities have detained a thirteen year old just for
filming an act of violence between two peers, these physical aggressions is
common in Canadian schools. Also more surprising is that school officials are
using methods of intimidation against students to cover up the lack of
discipline that school officials must teach students in the classroom, how to
behave at school with their teachers and other school personnel, lack of supervising the
school playgrounds, cafeterias and classrooms is causing a grave concern in students and parents. Brutalize a child using the criminal
tactics from the police is outrageous for parents; it can thus combat violence
by students in schools? In addition, students in schools are not only exposed to
violence of other students, as well to the cruelty and torture of some principal,
vice-principal, school social workers and Children's Aids Societies Workers.
