"Kids just being kids" certainly has changed

I came across this article today about a group of third graders who hatched a plan to knock their teacher out, tie her up, handcuff her, then stab her while other students kept watch.

Hell in a hand basket folks. That is where we are going...

My favorite line of the story came at the end where the Principal stated: "We have good kids." I'm sorry, WHAT? Don't jump on me about a few bad apples and all that. Sure, I am certain that most of the students in her school are great kids. But to try to downplay the situation with this statement is just rediculous to me.
