Comments: Pride, not rivalry, triggers brawls

O

strong>Oct. 4, p. 9

Amid public conviction that enmity among educational institutions is triggering student brawls, students say that defending school pride is the foremost reason for the fighting.

Your comments:

I’m sure a lack of alternative activities to release their aggression is a large part of the cause. The apathy toward sporting activities and total lack of suitable facilities at most schools prevent these kids from taking out their aggression in a safe and controlled manner.

Sam Spade

A proud man is always looking down on things and people; and, of course, as long as you are looking down, you cannot see something that is above you.
