BRAWL LEADS TO ARRESTS, INJURIES (response and opinion)

My opinion about this article is that they could have solved the problem in a different way. The reason I say this is because these are supposed to be almost "grown" people, and they are fighting with people much younger kids then themselves. By doing this and letting the community find this out, they are kind of telling younger kids that it is okay to fight out problems. The big thing that they are letting them think is that it's okay to beat up some one so bad that in the end they're in the hospital.
