It’s time to play St. Louis City Public Schools Wheel of Fortune!!!
The wheel is a little bit different from the one you’re used to seeing under Pat Sajak’s snoot.
Instead of monetary values, imagine that there are alternating spaces for Vashon, Roosevelt and Beaumont. If the wheel lands on one of those, that’s where the shooting will be this week.
The wheel also features spaces like “Bankrupt — Another $90 million deficit,” A “$100,000 Six-Figure Administrators’ Salaries” space, A “Lose State Accreditaton” space, a space marked “Illegal Teachers’ Strike, Spin Again” space, and finally, a space marked “Sorry, Find Another Superintendent.”
This week, the wheel landed on Roosevelt, and that leads to Your North St. Louis CIRCVS MAXIMVS Predatory Thug Baby of the Week Award.
For the week ending January 28, the award goes to all the Predatory Thug Baby perpetrators who were responsible for THREE different shootings resulting in SIX gunshot victims in the close vicinity of Roosevelt Predatory Thug Baby Repository (“High School”), in a matter of about ten hours, this past Tuesday going into early Wednesday. All three shootings are related, which is not surprising, because the TV news mentioned in passing that there are TWELVE different Predatory Thug Baby Street Drug Gangs operating inside of the Roosevelt “High School” Campus (should be called “Prison Prep Academy.”)
Of course, the wheel could have well landed on “Beaumont,” because there is a rumor that the three Roosevelt shootings are also linked to another high velocity lead-induced ventilation at the Beaumont jungle, the victim being a 20-year old junior. (You did read those last four words correctly.)
In the aftermath of the Battle of Roosevelt, that institution is being monitored by some of St. Louis’s finest. Yet, EVEN IN THE OBVIOUS PRESENCE OF PO-LEECES, there were at least THREE knock-down drag-out brawls at Roosevelt the next day. This is what they must mean by occupation-era insurgency, like what is going on in Iraq.
Log on to the St. Louis Metro Area CofCC website each Friday to see that week’s PTB award, given every week by the world-famous White Eagle of North St. Louis CIRCVS MAXIMVS land.
