Bullies: Snot Nosed Little Brats.

Whenever I turn on the news and I hear about some kid threatening to shoot someone and getting arrested for it, I get very irritated. Not because the kid was violent or even had evil thoughts, but because some parents don't get it. Bullying is not the result of anothers child's in-ability to fight for himself. It's bad parenting by the bullies parents.

Bullies usually have no self-esteem. They find a weaker link and exploit them on a daily basis. It gives them a high and makes them feel like king of the mountain. But their high is a false one on another's expense. And in today's society, the victim is fighting back.

He loads himself up with heavy artillery. Not because it's the answer, but because the circumstance makes him snap. He can't take anymore. The "abuse cylinder" has hit maximum capacity and gone into meltdown. And then everybody says their shocked.

Teachers don't intervene, officials don't intervene, and parents don't intervene. It is the job of every parent to make sure their kid is not tormenting someone at school every day. But because we are the "teletubbies" generation, we shirk our responsibility in child raising, and this is the end result. Kids taking out their hurt on other kids.
