In 10 - 12 years or less when these kids are old enough to enter the workforce, we will be F'd.

What is the world coming to?

I think a lot of people have always been mean and stupid but now they've got phones with cameras and the interwebs to broadcast it.

Every fight I ever got into when I was a kid centered around one person being picked on/harrassed/bullied by several others. It just pisses me off. I hate mean people, always have.

The issue are the parents. In a working system, a bus monitor would report the kids as soon as she gets back to school. The parents would get a letter, the kids would be expelled for 3 days and would be disciplined at home. Apparently this mechanism isn't working - I believe the parents do not act - often there are broken families, joint custody etc., so none of the parents want to be the bad guy and deal with it.

There have always been bad apples like this in middle school and elsewhere. If a person is weak and down, it brings out the worst in a crowd. I have witnessed terrible stuff in school and that's quite a while ago ... often life catches up with the idiots. They'll end up with a ****ty or no job, their own broken family etc.

I can't understand why someone else on the bus didn't unleash the Kraken on these turds.

Can we put these kids in a cell with Sandusky alone for a year or two?
