We've all suffered through bullying in our childhoods and it probably made a majority of us stronger for having dealt with the confrontation, instead of being taught to sue or let the law handle it. We're creating another generation of sue happy americans.
Gresch, when you and me were kids, we dealt with it, we stood up for ourselves, we took martial arts, and it made us stronger. But my point was that now the "victims" are taking a more direct approach and bringing 9-millimiters and pipe bombs to school. Columbine was just one example, there have been numerous other school shootings, all resulting from bullying. So the schools have no choice but to deal with it more seriously now. They have a responsibility to parents that their classroooms don't become shooting galleries.
