The boys think it is all over until they get to their car and find it to be destroyed and vandalized by the other boy’s friends feelings only more defeated. In Greasy Lake they boys did whatever they could to be perceived as the toughest boys around. They drank, smoked, and even participated in a variety of other illegal activities.
I hate tough kids!”(21). As we can see from this quote is that Juror 3 has a personal issue with kids(his own kid) being rebellious.
