I got into a fight almost every time I moved to a new school, as it was time to check out the new kid. And I moved a lot with my dad in the military. I attended 4 high schools and lost track of how many grade schools. But it was all fists and never any thought of using a knife or gun.
If the no tolerance rules were in effect when I was in school I probably would never have graduated. I think no tolerance rules wirh no regard to the circumstances are wrong. I think a person should have the prerogative to fight back without being thrown out of school.
I almost wonder if the steam can't get blown off with a fist fight maybe things get to a point where things get really bad as in the use of a weapon?
