Mia’s thoughts For so long as I have reported on the serious pandemic of life threatening bullying sweeping this nation, I have asked”does someone have to die for police and law makers to do something?” well sadly another angel has died and still the police do nothing.

What message does this send? that bullying is a right of passage and the lives of our children are collateral damage? Well my readers if you believe this say nothing, but if as I do you also believe this is a sin against our very fabric of life, it’s time to stand up and scream until someone listens. Our children are not disposable but by christ any damn politician that thinks they are is.

School yard brawl

No charges laid: Police in California are investigating the death of a girl who died following an afterschool fight. Source: AAP POLICE in southern California are investigating the death of an 11-year-old girl who was involved in an afterschool fight. The girl, who was not identified, was rushed to the hospital by her family shortly before 6pm local time on Friday, unconscious and not breathing. She was said to be in critical condition after undergoing emergency surgery and died at 8.50pm local time that day. Long Beach police said that the girl was involved in a fight with another 11-year-old Willard Elementary student after school but had no visible signs of trauma to her body. It was understood that the altercation – which was watched by at least seven onlookers – lasted less than a minute and did not involve weapons or anyone being knocked to the ground. The girls left separately after the conflict, cops added, noting that investigators did not know what triggered the showdown. An official cause of death will be determined by the Los Angeles County Coroner’s Office. Although authorities interviewed the other girl involved in the fight, bystanders and both girls’ families and friends, no arrests were made – though prosecutors could file charges after reviewing the evidence. It was believed that school officials were not aware that the altercation, which took place in a nearby alley, had been planned in advance, and there were no indications that either girl was bullied.
