Go and talk to the kids that were at Columbine.
The people who have talked to the kids at Columbine later found that, after all the hugging and crying, the same jock types were still giving the same geek types exactly the same shit as before.
You missed the point of that statement and its context within the arguement entirely. And perhaps missed the point of the arguement in general?The people who have talked to the kids at Columbine later found that, after all the hugging and crying, the same jock types were still giving the same geek types exactly the same shit as before.
The point isn't whether jocks pick on geeks or anything of the sort. It has nothing to do with whether the event would change underlying social dynamics. The issue at stake is whether the events have had negative psychological impacts that have caused problems with the emotional, social and psychological welfare of the students that were a part of that incident. It has to do with the effect of trauma on social integration, emotional stability and their psychological state.
Hope that clarifies my intent.
