You could easily substitute the private school kids for NBA players who mostly come from ghetto schools and noone would think otherwise about private schools.

It is laughable that the school code was included in the story as the school has little to do with the behavior of the kids as does hormones and the way our society treats women in general.

Like girls at public schools are all treated as princesses...

Apples and oranges Chuck. No doubt the fact that kids from all economic levels go to the same public school (within reason) makes for a far less "group think" mentality of privelege than at a private school. The same reason that drugs are more of a problem at private schools than inner city ones.

LOL! Who fed you that one? Yeah i guess it depends on what you consider a problem. The inner city kid who becomes the dealer or the private school kid who can afford them?

Private schools are generally far smaller than public schools and usually geared towards some kind of ideological dogma, hence people from similar backgrounds. Last i checked the trench coat mafia was a public school issue, of course kids gunning down others isnt such a big deal really...
