Much like what happened after Katrina.If the lights go out and 911 doesnt work the best and worst of human nature comes to the surface.

My feelings from reading the book was how a group of well socio-educated youths revert to violence when thrust into a life where formal law is non-existent. In other words, they regress to an animal mentality where it is dog-eat-dog.

ha ha thanx

That was required reading in my sophomore English class 34 years ago and it still gives me the creeps! That's one book I wish I had NEVER read!

Thanks so much to you both. I checked out the site and I plan on finding the movie.

I loved that book and movie also. Watch the movie that was done several years ago. I can't watch it anymore because one scene tears me up so bad I can't stand it. The book is essentially about cliques and people going along with anything to fit in.

try this site...I loved that book and movie
