Yes, I would agree that in the body of the article the mention is relative. I was questioning the usage in the headline. Mahalo for clarifying.

It feels like the generalizations in this thread reflect the public's desire to understand what drives criminal behavior, even when academic and economic advantages exist. Responsibility and restitution should rest with the individual(s) involved, rather the generalizations toward school culture, parent upbringing, etc.
