- I don't care about anything anymore...
- Hi Marcus, I called you here to talk about the behaviors you've been acting on as they are inappropriate on school grounds. Also, unnatural hair color is prohibited on school grounds, so please, by tomorrow I expect your hair to return to its normal hair color.
- Even though the principal had told Marcus to change his hair color to its natural color, Marcus did not listen and continued to turn to deviance. This turning is known as the 'Strain Theory' since Marcus had perceived the principal's proposal to change his appearance as unfair. Because of this unfairness, Marcus continued to act tough.
