An example of this is when the rumble happens in the book. Both the Soc’s and the Greaser’s have their reasonings for starting the rumble. The Greaser’s were mad because the Soc’s had pretty much been responsible for Johnny’s death and the Soc’s were mad that the Greaser’s called Bob’s death. In the book Hinton (1995) says, “We gotta win that fight tonight, Dally said. His voice was hard. We gotta get even with the Soc’s. For Johnny” (p. 125). In the book Hinton (1995) says, “Then I saw Johnny. He was sitting next to me, one elbow on his knee and staring straight ahead. He was a strange greenish-white and his eyes were huger than I’d ever see them. “I killed him” he said slowly, “I killed that boy” (p. 56). Both gangs also say rude things to each other for no reason and it can cause smaller fights for example when Dally is making fun of the way that the Soc’s faces are shaped before the rumble. Not as big as rumbles but it is still a fight no matter what way you look at
