| rockdale high school lockdown today: Rampage Katherine S. Newman, Cybelle Fox, David Harding, Jal Mehta, Wendy Roth, 2008-08-01 In the last decade, school shootings have decimated communities and terrified parents, teachers, and children in even the most family friendly American towns and suburbs. These tragedies appear to be the spontaneous acts of troubled, disconnected teens, but this important book argues that the roots of violence are deeply entwined in the communities themselves. Rampage challenges the loner theory of school violence, and shows why so many adults and students miss the warning signs that could prevent it. Drawing on more than 200 interviews with town residents, distinguished sociologist Katherine Newman and her co-authors take the reader inside two of the most notorious school shootings of the 1990s, in Jonesboro, Arkansas, and Paducah, Kentucky. In a powerful and original analysis, she demonstrates that the organizational structure of schools loses information about troubled kids, and the very closeness of these small rural towns restrained neighbors and friends from communicating what they knew about their problems. Her conclusions shed light on the ties that bind in small-town America. |

| rockdale high school lockdown today: The Condemnation of Little B Elaine Brown, 2003-02-15 Through the story of a thirteen-year-old black boy condemned to life in prison, Elaine Brown exposes the 'New Age' racism that effectively condemns millions of poor African-Americans to a third world life. The story of 'Little B' is riveting, a stunning example of the particular burden racism imposes on black youths. Most astonishing, almost all of the officials involved in bringing him to 'justice' are black. Michael Lewis was officially declared a ward of the state at age eleven, and then systematically ignored until his arrest for murder. Brown wondered how this boy could possibly have aroused so much public resentment, why he was being tried (and roundly condemned, labeled a 'super-predator') in the press. Then she met Michael and began investigating his case on her own. Brown adeptly builds a convincing case that the prosecution railroaded Michael, looking for a quick, symbolic conviction. His innocence is almost incidental to the overwhelming evidence that the case was unfit for trial. Little B was convicted long before he came to court, and effectively sentenced years before, when the 'safety net' allowed him to slip silently down. Brown cites studies and cases from all over America that reveal how much more likely youth of color are to be convicted of crimes and to serve long-even life-sentences, and how deeply the new black middle class is implicated in this devastating reality. |

| rockdale high school lockdown today: Deadly Lessons National Research Council, Division of Behavioral and Social Sciences and Education, Board on Children, Youth and Families, Committee on Law and Justice, 2002-12-13 The shooting at Columbine High School riveted national attention on violence in the nation's schools. This dramatic example signaled an implicit and growing fear that these events would continue to occurâ€and even escalate in scale and severity. How do we make sense of the tragedy of a school shooting or even draw objective conclusions from these incidents? Deadly Lessons is the outcome of the National Research Council's unique effort to glean lessons from six case studies of lethal student violence. These are powerful stories of parents and teachers and troubled youths, presenting the tragic complexity of the young shooter's social and personal circumstances in rich detail. The cases point to possible causes of violence and suggest where interventions may be most effective. Readers will come away with a better understanding of the potential threat, how violence might be prevented, and how healing might be promoted in affected communities. For each case study, Deadly Lessons relates events leading up to the violence, provides quotes from personal interviews about the incident, and explores the impact on the community. The case studies center on: Two separate incidents in East New York in which three students were killed and a teacher was seriously wounded. A shooting on the south side of Chicago in which one youth was killed and two wounded. A shooting into a prayer group at a Kentucky high school in which three students were killed. The killing of four students and a teacher and the wounding of 10 others at an Arkansas middle school. The shooting of a popular science teacher by a teenager in Edinboro, Pennsylvania. A suspected copycat of Columbine in which six students were wounded in Georgia. For everyone who puzzles over these terrible incidents, Deadly Lessons offers a fresh perspective on the most fundamental of questions: Why? |

| rockdale high school lockdown today: Urban Sprawl Gregory D. Squires, 2002 Urban Sprawl is not simply a development that undercuts the quality of life for suburbanites. It has raised alarms across the nation, as fair housing advocates, environmentalists, land use planners, and even many suburban employers who cannot find the workers they need, have recognized that the costs go far beyond aesthetics. Despite the agreement that something needs to be done, there is no consensus on what works. Urban Sprawl: Causes, Consequences, and Policy Responses assembles leading scholars who analyze the major causes and consequences of urban sprawl and the policy initiatives that are being explored in response to these developments. |
| rockdale high school lockdown today: Shared Experiences of Mass Shootings Johanna Nurmi, 2017-09-22 Mass violence and terrorism are a salient phenomenon in the late modern society, showing no sign of decline. Proactive results from the long, ongoing debate of how to address these issues are therefore increasingly necessary – not just in the context of prevention, but also in the context of the aftermath. Shared Experiences of Mass Shootings develops an understanding of the collective experience, consequences and recovery processes after mass shootings. Drawing from in-depth case studies of two mass shootings in Finland and comparing them with other international cases, it explores how communities work through violent tragedies employing social memory and memorialization practices that can be seen as either tools for recovery, or as something that needs to be restricted. Contributing a novel understanding of how experiencing mass violence is deeply gendered through the social patterns and narratives of men’s and women’s emotions, this timely monograph will appeal to undergraduate and postgraduate students, as well as postdoctoral researchers, interested in fields such as: Sociology of Violence, Criminology, Social Work, Memory Studies, Media Studies and Cultural Trauma. |

| rockdale high school lockdown today: Encyclopedia of Juvenile Violence Laura L. Finley, 2006-12-30 From concerns about juveniles' incorrigibility at the turn of the century to school violence in the 1990s, adults have attempted to understand, control, and prevent juvenile violence. Yet, juvenile violence takes many forms, including both violence by juveniles and violence against juveniles, and has various causes and consequences. Since juvenile violence cannot be understood without examining the social context of a given time, this comprehensive encyclopedia provides a historical overview of many significant time periods and offers entries about many types of juvenile violence. It covers competing theories of youth violence; issues such as gender, race, and educational status; and the criminal justice system's methods for dealing with both victims and offenders over time. Additionally, several topics that receive little attention in traditional volumes about juvenile violence, such as hazing, systemic violence in schools, peaceable schools, are covered in these pages. Each entry utilizes current sources, making the book as up-to-date as possible. The front and back matter offer important information, including a chronological list of significant events related to juvenile violence and book and Web resources. Authors represent many different fields, including Sociology, Psychology, Education, History, Social Work, Political Science, Policing, and English. This offers readers a diversity of perspectives and information from a variety of sources. Confronting a difficult and often-misunderstood subject, this encyclopedia is essential to a better understanding of juvenile violence. |

| rockdale high school lockdown today: Epidemic Films to Die For Tom Zaniello, 2024-10-17 Epidemic cinema remains an enduring genre of contemporary film, ranging from medical dramas to post-apocalyptic thrillers. Using a vast filmography, Zaniello not only details the incredible variety of epidemics and their role in popular culture, but also demonstrates how epidemics, as a rule, have been confronted without proper preparation or deployment of resources in different forms of media. Therefore, Epidemic Films to Die For is the first and the only book that extensively analyzes the history and deployment of films and TV series towards a chronicle of epidemic films. In addition to providing an overview of how widespread disease and illness have been historically depicted via film and media, this book skillfully contextualizes the contemporary ongoing moment in which filmmakers and producers grapple with the cultural imaginary surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic. |

| rockdale high school lockdown today: Encyclopedia of School Crime and Violence Laura L. Finley, 2011-09-13 This book provides a thorough compilation of the types, specific incidents, relevant agencies, theories, responses, and prevention programs relevant to crime and violence in schools and on campuses. Encyclopedia of School Crime and Violence is the most comprehensive reference on this deeply unsettling topic ever undertaken. No other volume integrates as much information about the many types of crime and violence occurring in schools as well as the variety of responses and prevention efforts aimed at curbing it. In a series of alphabetically organized entries, Encyclopedia of School Crime and Violence looks at significant cases both at high schools and on college campuses, with coverage that includes professional and community responses, and theories as to why these events happened. Unlike other volumes that focus only on the most sensational events, the encyclopedia spans the full spectrum of school crime—not just the high profile cases like Columbine and Virginia Tech, but the insidious problems of theft, bullying, cybercrime, violence, sexual assault, and more. Coverage includes information on some cases outside the United States, as well as entries on the government agencies and other organizations dedicated to analyzing and eradicating school crime and violence. |

| rockdale high school lockdown today: Violence in America's Schools R. Murray Thomas, 2006-10-30 The problem of violence in schools has not gone away despite radical reductions in violent crimes throughout the country over the last decade. Students continue to harrass, haze, and harm each other in a variety of ways, disrupting classrooms and whole schools. In the wake of the Columbine massacre, many focused on the worst kind of school violence: deadly assaults with dangerous weapons. But other forms of violence are more persistent, common, and just as destructive in many ways: fighting, sexual abuse, carrying weapons to school, vandalism, and assorted other crimes that happen behind the closed doors of elementary, middle, and high schools across the country. The consequences range from violent victimization and death, to the disruption of learning and fear among student bodies and teaching staffs. Here, Thomas provides a foundation for understanding why the violence occurs, preventing it from happening, and treating both offenders and victims after it happens. Using scores of case descriptions to illustrate the types of school violence and their treatment in recent years, the author skillfully shows readers how the problem of violence and crime in schools is an insidious issue that cannot go untreated. He offers both tested and proposed methods for dealing with a host of violence issues and a guide to planning treatment of the problem and its associated consequences. He answers the questions: What are prominent types of violence in American schools? What conditions contribute to those types of violence? What methods can be applied in an effort to reduce school violence? Readers will come away from this book with a greater understanding of the scope of violence in America's schools, and the myriad ways of addressing it. |

| rockdale high school lockdown today: School Shootings Nils Böckler, Thorsten Seeger, Peter Sitzer, Wilhelm Heitmeyer, 2012-12-13 School shootings are a topic of research in a variety of different disciplines—from psychology, to sociology to criminology, pedagogy, and public health—each with their own set of theories. Many of these theories are logically interconnected, while some differ widely and seem incompatible with each other, leading to divergent results about potential means of prevention. In this innovative work, leading researchers on the topic of school shootings introduce their findings and theoretical concepts in one combined systematic volume. The contributions to this work highlight both the complementary findings from different fields, as well as cases where they diverge or contradict each other. The work is divided into four main sections: an overview of current theoretical approaches and empirical models; application of these theories to international cases, including Columbine (USA), Emsdetten (Germany), and Tuusula (Finland); a critique of the influence of the media, both in the portrayals of past events and its effect on future events; and finally an overview of existing models for prevention and intervention, and measures of their success. The result is a comprehensive source for current research on school shootings, and will provide a direction for future research. |

| rockdale high school lockdown today: The Psychology and Law of Workplace Violence Irvin H. Perline, Jona Goldschmidt, 2004 The Psychology and Law of Workplace Violence examines the causes, risk factors, prevention and legal issues associated with workplace violence. Previous attempts to explain these crimes are often only descriptive and do not identify the basic underlying psychological mechanisms and yet, from the largest violent acts, such as the September 11th Attack on America, to the smallest violent workplace crime, the psychological mechanisms are the same. This landmark text offers a different perspective to the current concepts of workplace violence and will likely change the way people conceptualize violent crime. Part One of the text identifies eight underlying factors responsible for these crimes, identifies two necessary conditions for their occurrence, and develops several significant, new concepts related to the field. Part Two discusses state and federal legal issues surrounding workplace violence. Workers' compensation, employer liability and employer duties under negligence law, hiring, supervision and firing, the legal aspects surrounding premises security, employee privacy issues, the ADA, the Fair Credit Reporting Act, and criminal history inquiries are but a few of the many legal topics discussed. This section is written in a practical, easy-to-understand manner and contains materials that are often available only in law libraries. The final Part Three of the text is a compendium of workplace violence case histories and includes numerous nationally recognizable incidents along with many others that have not been widely publicized. An interesting description of details surrounding each crime and its aftermath is included. What happened to the perpetrator? What happened to the victims? In addition, for many cases, how the case relates to other cases and issues that have arisen from the case are discussed. In this section, which is the largest published compilation of case history material on workplace violence to date, covers over |

Beattie, Karly Ford, 2010-05-13 This second edition of The Structure of Schooling: Readings in the Sociology of Education draws from classic and contemporary scholarship to examine current issues and diverse theoretical approaches to studying the effects of schooling on individuals and society. This engaging reader exposes students to examples of sociological research on schools with a focus on the school as community. It covers a wide range of issues, including the development and application of social and cultural capital; the effects of racial segregation and resource inequality on student outcomes; the effects of tracking; the role of gender, class, and race in structuring educational opportunity; the effects of schooling on life course outcomes; the significance of a school's institutional environment; and the sociology of school reform movements. |
| rockdale high school lockdown today: Deterrence and Crime Prevention David M. Kennedy, 2012-08-06 Deterrence is at the heart of the preventive aspiration of criminal justice. Deterrence, whether through preventive patrol by police officers or stiff prison sentences for violent offenders, is the principal mechanism through which the central feature of criminal justice, the exercise of state authority, works – it is hoped -- to diminish offending and enhance public safety. And however well we think deterrence works, it clearly often does not work nearly as well as we would like – and often at very great cost. Drawing on a wide range of scholarly literatures and real-world experience, Kennedy argues that we should reframe the ways in which we think about and produce deterrence. He argues that many of the ways in which we seek to deter crime in fact facilitate offending; that simple steps such as providing clear information to offenders could transform deterrence; that communities may be far more effective than legal authorities in deterring crime; that apparently minor sanctions can deter more effectively than draconian ones; that groups, rather than individual offenders, should often be the focus of deterrence; that existing legal tools can be used in unusual but greatly more effective ways; that even serious offenders can be reached through deliberate moral engagement; and that authorities, communities, and offenders – no matter how divided – share and can occupy hidden common ground. The result is a sophisticated but ultimately common-sense and profoundly hopeful case that we can and should use new deterrence strategies to address some of our most important crime problems. Drawing on and expanding on the lessons of groundbreaking real-world work like Boston’s Operation Ceasefire – credited with the Boston Miracle of the 1990s – Deterrence and Crime Prevention is required reading for scholars, law enforcement practitioners, and all with an interest in public safety and the health of communities. |
| rockdale high school lockdown today: A Collection of Columns Rick T. Rae, 2022-11-02 Book contains columns and observations published in various newspapers managed by Rick Rae during the course of his half-century career in the business. Book Review by Alice Queen of rockdalenewtoncitizen.com Rick Rae loves his family and loves his cars. That much is clear from a reading of his second book, “A Collection of Columns,” a series of personal and observational essays the native of Canada — whose newspaper management career spanned some 45 years — has curated from a life well lived. “I’ve been writing columns here and there, mostly internet stuff, and a couple of folks noted that I’ve been writing them a long time and they’re right; I think I started back in 1974,” said Rae, 84, from his home in Loganville where he lives with Penny, his wife of 62 years. “Several people suggested I package the best of them and put them in book form. So I went ahead and did it.” Many of the pieces in Rae’s new book detail his automotive obsession (he bought the first of his 75 cars when he was 14 years old) and a number of vacations taken by his family. But the former publisher of the Rockdale Citizen, Newton Citizen and Gwinnett Daily Post also delves into a host of other subjects, including some “inside baseball” insights on the newspaper industry, his thoughts on music, and other significant (and not-so-significant) life moments. Published by Indiana-based AuthorHouse, “A Collection of Columns” is Rae’s follow-up to his 2011 memoir “Not Extinct Yet,” in which he details his many decades in newspapers. Rae said he worried that the subject matter of some of the columns might seem a bit antiquated, but he moved ahead with the project. “Unfortunately, I’ve been at this so long that some of the columns are rather dated,” he said. “I love writing about personal experiences, and the more I can get down on paper, the better I’ll like it, although I’m getting kind of old, I guess, for personal experiences.” Two chapters particularly amusing to Rae were written in recent years for a Canadian publication for which he once worked. One concerns teaming up with a co-worker who was a successful pool shark and the other involved meeting a young singer who became one of country music’s most beloved stars. “I wrote two recollection columns for a former employer in Canada; they were about getting in a pool tournament and making more money than I had selling newspaper ads and also my meeting with Harold Jenkins, who would later change his name to Conway Twitty,” he said. “I love to do that kind of stuff — I’ve got a few of those in my background.” The book’s final chapter was a column published in the Rockdale Citizen (which by then had a companion paper in Newton County) and the Gwinnett Daily Post on June 28, 2006, the day he retired. When asked if he had plans for any more books, Rae said he’s got something on the back burner that he might want to release. “One of my buddies in Canada who I grew up with is an author and makes a lot of money ghostwriting for Canadian politicians — it seems like everybody in Canada wants to have a book out,” he said. “He suggested that I combine my love of cars and my love of music and do some kind of book about cars and songs. I’ve been thinking that might be a way to go. It’s been in the back of my mind.” One story that may well wind up in another book takes place during the time Rae managed a newspaper in the suburbs of Detroit and saw an up-and-coming performer that left an impression that remains today. “I’ve never written about my times with Bob Seger when I worked in Pontiac, Mich.,” he said. “When I worked there, every Friday we’d go across the road to a bowling alley that had a lounge and the guy playing there was Bob Seger... We’d listen to him until they shut the bar down at 2 in the morning — the whole newspaper used to come over and hear him perform.” |

| rockdale high school lockdown today: Die mediale Inszenierung von Amok und Terrorismus Frank J. Robertz, Robert Kahr, 2016-04-11 Schulamokläufer und Terroristen sichern sich durch das kalkulierte Ausüben von Gewalt einen Platz in den Schlagzeilen der Weltpresse. Sie folgen damit einer bewährten Kommunikationsstrategie, die ebenso menschenverachtend wie durchschaubar ist. Dieses Kalkül der Täter geht insbesondere dann auf, wenn Medien die destruktiven Botschaften der Täter ungefiltert weitertragen. Sie verbreiten auf diese Weise Angst in der Gesellschaft, belasten die Opfer und liefern im schlimmsten Fall eine Inspiration für Nachahmer. Mit Hilfe von Erkenntnissen aus Psychologie, Kommunikationswissenschaft und Kriminologie zeigen die Autoren Möglichkeiten auf, schonend über derartige Taten zu kommunizieren. Ihre pragmatischen Leitlinien für einen konstruktiven medialen Umgang mit Gewalt erlauben es, die Gefahr von Nachahmungstaten zu verringern und das Leid der Opfer zu lindern. |

| rockdale high school lockdown today: Die Revolution der Ausgestoßenen Christoph Hopfner, 2015-01-01 In den letzten Jahren kam es erschreckend regelmäßig zu Amokläufen an Schulen weltweit. Die Namen der betroffenen Städte sind regelrecht zu Synonymen für die dortigen Geschehnisse geworden. Auf die Fragen nach den Ursachen und den Motiven fällt es vielen Menschen schwer, zufriedenstellende Antworten zu finden. Was veranlasst die Schülerinnen und Schüler zu ihren Taten? Und welche Konsequenzen sollten diese Ereignisse für die pädagogische Arbeit haben? Die vorliegende Arbeit basiert auf einer umfassenden Recherche und Analyse von über sechzig Fällen, wie auch der Aussagen der Täter selbst. Es wird herausgearbeitet, wie es pädagogisch und therapeutisch Handelnden gelingen kann, gravierende psychische und soziale Probleme Jugendlicher zu erkennen und zu überwinden, unter Umständen sogar zu verhindern. Es werden Möglichkeiten aufgezeigt, wie ein Zugang zu Heranwachsenden gefunden, gemeinsam Perspektiven erarbeitet und problematische Lebens- und Identitätsentwürfe verändert werden können. |
