What should they be scared of? It's not like they're ever gonna get the beatings they so sorely need. They'll never be handled properly by the cops, wouldn't ever serve any real time for hurting someone, wouldn't be able to pay if they lost a personal injury suit. What do they have to lose unless, by some tiny chance, they come across some tougher crowd who take no sympathy on them and couldn't care less about the consequences for giving them a thumpin'? There is no justice anymore and the more kids like this realize it, the worse they'll behave.
