[From article]
what makes that story all the more incredible is that for their formative teenage years, the brothers grew up where they did, in possibly the least plausible breeding ground for anti-American resentment.

Dzhokhar wrestled on the school team for three years and was captain for two. His coach called him “one of the most well-adjusted kids on the team,” getting along with all the different subgroups.

White kids make up about a third of the student body, and blacks slightly more.
This brief article raises several questions. The author says Cambridge is "the least plausible breeding ground for anti-American resentment." What? Cambridge breeds hating America, white male conservatives, and Republicans. The author adds, "[Dzhokhar's] coach called him 'one of the most well-adjusted kids on the team[.]' What does that say about being well-adjusted? And who determines what well-adjusted means? In American public schools it means conforming. In Cambridge it mans conforming to liberalism. Finally if it is true that "White kids make up about a third of the [CRLS] student body, and blacks slightly more." It undermines the local politicians constant demands for more special treatment for [black] minorities. Blacks appear to be the majority in the Cambridge public schools.
