Here's a question, guy - are the people in Asia and Europe a different breed of humans than those found in America? If you say "yes", then no one can help you. If you say "no", then I would ask you why it is that schools in developed nations outside of America are MUCH more peaceful than our schools are. In other words, perhaps you should rephrase your answer to refer to American schools rather than schools in general. And if you realize that the problem is not with schools in general, but with American schools, then that means that you admit that the problem's with American culture, that the other oh-so-socialized nations are better than we are when it comes to schools.
And FYI, I did send both my sons to school outside America. My youngest came home from school one day and told me how he knew other kids who brought guns to school every day. Within two months he found himself going to school in the Philippines...and he learned very quickly from his fellow students that weapons are not welcome there. He brought a penknife to school one day and the other students gathered around him and berated him for bringing a knife, asking him "why do you need a knife here? This isn't America!"
Yeah, it has a lot to do with American culture.
Aside from being brought up in the "hood" (although, I always went to Catholic schools and not public schools) I've read a couple academic-like books on gangs. America is often considered the birth place of the "super-gangs." How true that is I don't know, but certainly America is one of a few nations of earth to have produced so-called "super-gangs." Brazil and South Africa have produced them. Well... I know Brazil has and if memory service me correct South Africa has too as well.
You could say the Southern Italian Cammora (sometimes referenced as a "mafia") is one, too, given they take in teenagers and are more loosely run like American "super-gangs." Unlike the Sicilian Mafia and American La Cosa Nostra which extremely hierarchical in all or almost all decisions. And neither inducted teenagers. Young men, yes, but not 12 and 15 year-olds.
In the United States the gangs have traditionally done a lot of recruiting at the schools. So, they also helped promote a culture of violence in the schools as well.
Some of the United States super-gangs, the Gangster Disciples (originating from Chicago) in particular, when they were under Larry Hoover, modeled themselves off of for-profit corporations. Larry Hoover read about Japanese corporations while in prison and restructured his gang to model that more.
The Brazilian super-gangs, like the Red Command (I think their name is), are modeled more off of militias or the military.
Anyways, the Mexican Cartel as deadly as they are felt American raised Mexicans were far more mean and prone to violence than Mexican raised Mexicans. So, they began contracting California Mexican gang members to come to Mexico to act as both violent enforcers and as hitmen.
Then America exported the American born MS-13 and 18th Street gang to Central America.
Liberals, Democrats, Black-Americans have exported the Bloods, Crips, Vice Lords, and Gangster Disciples to other countries with black populations. Mainly it has been the Bloods and Crips but the GD's I'm told by a black person from Belize has established a small representation in the country of Belize. The Crips and Bloods actually came to New York City through Belize. The LA Crips and Bloods successfully exported their gangs to Belize who then in turn exported it to New York City.
The Crips and Bloods are now in--via blacks from Belize--the nice Netherlands. Murdering each other.
The Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCU's) have not successfully exported their "liberal" culture to blacks outside of the USA. But the inner-city Black-American gangs have exported their "liberal" culture to blacks outside the USA. And if they ever hook up with the CIA they will infect the entire black race across all planet earth.
