Kids Vs Teachers (Part 2)

Is the sequel ever as good as the original? We shall see. http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=263501

50 Middle School Staff Vs 400 students 6th - 8th grade.

To give the staff an advantage they may use any blunt object as a weapon but the students may not.

To give the students an advantage 70 Per Cent of them will be 8th graders that means 280, 13 and 14 year olds and 120 6th and 7th graders. Out of the total 400 students it is 80 per cent male.

The staff just wants to survive and only the healthiest staff members will be fighting but the kids are really angry and have one goal in mind; to hurt teachers as badly as possible so no runt 8th graders will be fighting only the meanest, biggest and toughest. No students over 15 allowed in the fight.

OK, now it is no longer a fair fight. The teachers are going down, and fast. 8 to 1 odds will overwhelm blunt weapons every time. All the kids have to do is have the smallest on throw himself on the club and hang on for dear life while the bigger kids stomp the teacher into the dirt. No contest. And at this age the kids are old enough to plan, and most of them have been playing video games for 10 years, so they know decent attack strategies.

Nope…the staff don’t have a snowball’s chance. :eek:

silenus. You are badly overestimating the capabilities of the student body: the average middle scholer can’t translate 2-dimensional strategies and apply them to real-life situations, even accounting for the availability of comparable resources and the differences between real life physics and real life blunt tramua/pain. Plus this is the worst physically developed generation of students in recent memory: trick them into the halls, lock the classroom doors and seal the exits , and have teachers herd them running through the halls… these kids will be gasping for air in sheer exhaustion without one blow landed within three laps around the school halls.

Teachers… if we’re prepared.

Looking at my local middle-schools…the kids won’t have to do a thing after three laps except watch the teachers collapse and stroke out! :smiley:

To anticipate the next thread…I wouldn’t try to take on my high-school kids in a fight with nuclear weapons. My sophomores are BIG!

I think that the students just don’t have the organizational and strategy skills to even come close to subduing the teachers. The teachers, on the other hand, have been around awhile and would easily be able to work together to wipe the students out.

If a teacher loses their blunt object, because they’re dead, too hurt to hold it, or merely drop it, can the kids pick it up?

I’d say that after the first one or two kids go down in bloody heaps, the rest will lose all the will to fight. Let’s not forget that they’re kids, after all. Seeing an adult injure/maim/kill one of your peers would be pretty traumatic, I’d think.

Absolutely not but they can get rid of it so that the teachers can’t get to it.

As for the Children being traumatized by seeing a classmate get killed…I would think that would make them angrier and more aggressive.

The seqeul blows…I guess there won’t be a trilogy. :stuck_out_tongue:
