Girls involved in fatal fight at Delaware school suspended
WILMINGTON, Del. --A schools official says three students involved in a fight at a Delaware school in which a teenager died have been suspended.
New Castle County Vo-Tech School District spokeswoman Kathy Demarest says the girls have been out of Howard High School of Technology since the assault last week. Sixteen-year-old Amy Joyner-Francis was killed in the confrontation.
The girls' removal from the school was first reported by The News Journal.
Wilmington Police Chief Bobby Cummings says charges will be filed in the case, possibly by the end of the week.

Fighting is awesome. Sometimes to solve problems, you just have to get into a fistfight.

Oh, it can also lead to hospitalization or death . . . because if there's one thing an Alpha does NOT want to hear, it's that he/she is not THE Alpha.
That's not a problem, is it?
We've learned absolutely NOTHING in centuries. NOTHING. Humans are inherently attracted to and commit violence and adults do absolutely nothing to stop it. They love watching and filming and getting into fights. It's part of our culture and it's never going to stop. You would think humans would abandon being angry fuckers with all there is to occupy their time, but it seems we're still too addicted to violence to stop.

It was like four or five on one, if I understand it correctly...
