7. Right On
"because some kids who have been horribly bullied have either taken their own lives or have gotten hold of guns and shot up the school."

And then the kids who lashed out are demonized. I wonder how many kids who were shot at Columbine were bullying the shooters. I am so sick of all the idiocy surrounding these 'martyrs.' As for the suicides, I cannot fathom the pain of losing a child to suicide, over bullying no less.

"Bullies have to be identified early and stopped or they'll grow up to be adults who bully and teach their kids to bully. We need to break that cycle."

I wonder how other countries deal with bullying in their schools. You don't hear about too many school shootings or stabbings in school.
