yet...up the street, u have a high school called Ballou which had 2 shooting deaths in the hallways, and about 100 fights...students stealing then spilling mercury...

and when I say up the street...I mean literally, less than a mile.


Yeah... I live 15 minutes away where 12 people died from a shooting... It's called Columbine...

But most of all I agree with you... If a fight can be avoided, avoid it. But if not you should at least be able to defend yourself.
