That whole Glenbrook High School

That whole Glenbrook High School hazing story is sick. No, not because more than a hundred kids got together on a Sunday morning to get hammered, play football, and watch the senior girls put a beatdown on the junior girls. And no, not because parents - parents! - were there and instead of jumping in and breaking it up, chose to pump the keg and video tape the whole thing. And no, not because kids are suing to avoid having to miss graduation and the prom after they got suspended for their 'honest mistakes'.

Ok, ok, it is sick for those reasons, but mostly it's sick because people are glued to the story. I don't know if it's a deep-seeded "the popular girls didn't like me in high school" thing or just a "cable news junkies love footage of high school girls fighting" thing. Or I guess it could be a little of both. In any event, it's another story that is getting more coverage that it should.
