Random thought.
The world has obviously gotten more aggressive, and honestly, I think corporations have bred this into people with how cutthroat they have become. For years, safety in schools were never questioned. my freshman year, our big gym (we had three) was on fire for a while, roof fire, put out, all good. When I was a sophomore, three junior girls were killed when they got into the car with a guy that was drunk, this woke my high school up. The worst thing that happened my senior year at my school was a security guard falling from the 500 golf balls that myself and an accomplice threw down the stairs. I was 'safe' at my high school. Sure there were a couple brawls, but nothing insane where knifes or guns were pulled out. I am only out of high school 10 years ago and it is amazing how much things have changed. And I live in the posh suburbs of Chicago, where we have good schooling and good areas, we have the ability to do almost anything we want in our lives. I can only imagine what goes on in the high school in areas were the quality of life isn't as high, or the family structure isn't as strong.
And the sick thing is, there is really no way to regulate this violence, the only way would be to have someone in every hallway, in every gym, because these kids can care less about a camera and in most cases, a teacher....And that is just not financially possible
