I am a recent High School Student and I believe I can speak on this subject simply because I have experienced it first hand.
I think that school violence is a very huge problem in public schools today because more kids are focused on "who said something about them" , or "Being to worried about what they are wearing."
These are two huge factors believe it or not. I have seen things happen with my own eyes and honestly I believe its not worth fighting over.
For example I was walking down the hallway in school and as I walked pass one classroom I could over hear two girls shouting at each other. As everyone stood watching the two argue for a couple minutes and the nex thing u know they brake out fighting.
To be completely honest they were arguing and fighting because the girl said she had busted sneakers... I mean really is that worth fighting over? I dont think so and I do believe most schhol fights start over petty things like that.
