Finally! Ban boxing!
This is interesting. The City of Somerville fully supports the Somerville Boxing Club, providing space for them in one of our schools. I’m not against the club, but the city can’t have it both ways. Are we to believe that concussions come only from football? What about soccer?

At least in football they wear helmets.
