Students with drugs should be charged

Published 9:14 am Wednesday, March 7, 2007

I am writing in concern about the middle school. My understanding after reading the article is that there were drugs found, and no one was arrested?

Can you tell me why it is if I was to be stopped and had drugs I would be arrested, but yet they go into a school and find them and do nothing!

This is where they should start with teaching the young people right from wrong. What did they teach them?

As long as you are in a school with drugs its OK? Natchez better take a look at Jackson and think about what they are not doing. Why would they not arrest those kids? Is it a case where they may know parents, grandparents, or what?

Are the people in Natchez OK with the cops turning their heads? If they turn their heads on this, what happens when these kids are selling other children drugs? Will that be OK too?

As I understand, it also said that it wasn’t a lot of drugs. Does that really matter? I guess my question is: What do the parents of the children that go to the middle school think of this? Do they think its OK too?
