I got bullied and made fun of a lot.
Fortunately I was raised right so I didn't pop a bunch of caps in asses because of nerd rage. And I had easy access to guns. Parenting matters.

If everyone at his school studied intense martial arts, this wouldn't have been a problem to begin with, right?

Seriously?

Seriously? I am sure you think legalizing pot will cure all of this. When is the last time you spent a single minute in a school. As a teacher for 24 years in a public high school I can say I love my job and my kids. Bullying is a MAJOR emphasis in schools nationwide and is not tolerated if we find out about it. I have to say that in the years I have been teaching the primary culprit is a combination of two things. 1- A complete and utter lack of true role models and heroes for kids in their lives on a daily basis thereby leaving kids to lead kids. Parents, grandparents and families are blown to the wind and kids are completely left to their own devices without any sense of right and wrong. Give the kids a nintendo and a computer and it will babysit them for childhood. No need for family time, a sense of family pride and the shame that comes with dissapointing the family when you do something wrong. 2- Social media amounting to 80+ percent of communication between todays youth. Look around you, kids are no longer in the moment they are glued to twitter, texting and chat rooms. As a teacher I have had the opportunity to see many of those "conversations". Many of them are negative and fill our kids with a sense that they can say anything they want about or to someone without harm on either end. We just built a new school with over 2000 kids and we have a tremendous number of great teachers who genuinely care about kids. To say we are are all shitty is a part of what I am talking about in #2 above. You are being a part of the problem and not the solution. Want to help, talk to your local principal and start a school safety committee and involve as many school and community people as you can. Stop pushing pot and start pushing safe schools. I personally started a school safety committee after this last tragedy and have already had 40+ volunteers. By the time we bring in the community we will be well over 100 adults AND students. Out only job will be to research what other schools are doing and brainstorm what we can do. No school in the US would turn down volunteers but my guess is that it is easier to sit back and blame instead. Sorry dude, I have kids who do pot on a daily basis in my classes mostly after school, but I am not nieve enough to say that is only when. Many of them come to school with a pretty high blood THC level just from the night before. Glassy eyed, tuned out, no attention span, ghosts who reside in the body of a student. You can spot them the first day of school. You have a choice here, all of you. Either try to be a part of the solution or you are a part of the problem.

Spent a couple of hours with the wife son and daughter putting a few hundred rounds through our 45,380 and 38.
Just making sure they know gun safety and how to eliminate the threat. I love my rights as an American. |

I never thought of this. Taking a course in self-defense would go along way toward getting the bullying to stop.

I think Flopnuts is kind on the right track. It doesn't justify going on a killing spree, but it does usually seem to be the reason this shit starts. The teachers and staff need training, and need to intervene when they see bullying. No one should be under attack when trying to receive an education.
It's been 23 years since I've been to highschool, but my teachers were pussies and would look the other way. I was a jock, and I never picked on anyone for no reason because if my dad caught wind of it he would whip my ass. Besides I always felt bad for outcasts and was always friendly. Even stopped a few from getting beat up when someone felt they needed to show how big their dick was. Kids are ****ing brutal, and the ones being ****ed with think their whole life is going to be this way and see red. Little do they know if they tough it out they'll be the boss of the same types of assholes. |

First thing they should do with this little asshole, is take him to the morgue to view the bodies of the slain kids, followed by a meeting with any of the grieving parents who are up to it.
See what he thinks after that. |
