The Bronx

One of my students was murdered on Friday. He was beaten to death early in the afternoon while buying Orange Juice at a store. They aren't sure if it was mistaken identity or if he was picked for a reason. He seemed like a quiet, shy, nice kid to me. Of course, i don't know what else was going on in his life.

What a shame.

Shame?! That's awful... Is it a shock on the school or is it, dare I ask, life as normal there?

Well - it's about as shocking as a kid in the suburbs getting drunk and killing themself that way. It's not that surprising, but it's still a bad and unusual thing.
