Reports of fighting in metro Atlanta schools are becoming so common that some parents are letting their kids skip school.

It's the masks. (and the general anxiety it breeds) It makes anti-social behavior easier. And when someone's pounding on you, they don't have to see your tears.

Calling this “metro” Atlanta is a stretch. This is pretty far NW up I-75.

The bathroom fires IIRC are a Tik Tok challenge.

The fighting is more of the cultural breakdown + permissive idiocy ‘in charge’ of public schools.

As someone who attended a Bartow County high school (2006 graduation) let me just say, this is NOT new! All the Bartow County schools have always had issues with frequent fights save Cartersville High since it is districted to encompass the elite class. The rest of the county is a lot of white trash and ghetto areas with a culture for this behavior.

This is not to say masks don't make this a further issue, but looking at full context of the area I'd say the issue is more so the general area and culture of the county schools.

Bartow is the “rural suburb of the suburbs” as I call it.

Former Cass teachers we know affectionately call it Chaos HS.

The Bartow Sheriff takes a dim view of permissiveness when it comes to Yutes destructive behaviors or actions (be they redneck or protected class).

I know a good bit of people that live in Bartow county. I lived there many years ago, as well. Let me make this clear: Almost all the people from Bartow County take a lot of pride with not being a part of metro-Atlanta.

This is just the media’s attempt at further enlarging Atlanta’s political arm.

There are no natural boundaries that separate Atlanta from the rest of the state. There are tons of liberals moving to East Cobb and bringing in their big city democrat values.
