I like to think that if I lived in Puna, I would be all over this, and we would band together to tell the school this is unacceptable. I think the school definetely has some liability exposure here. They were supposed to have guards, but even the guards were fighting (at least on a bureaucratic level). As a consequence, the minor was injured. The perpetrators may have exploited this weakness. Did someone say this fight was racially motivated? If so, I would be highly motivated to insist that KHS be called to answer for this.
I do hate to see mainland values transmitted to Hawaii, and that is probably exactly what happens. Television is the demon.
