Where or where are the administrators and teachers who put on a big front about being against bullying all the time? The fact is the bullies know they run the schools now.
In the early 90’s I briefly substituted at the local high school. There was a kid who had horrible vision, I mean coke bottle glasses, skinny, frail but as sweet as he could be and smart. The other kids in his class and the school looked out for him but one day a bully decided to show his badness by taking it out on this innocent kid. He easily broke his glasses and bloodied him and bruised him.
Seems the bully was going to just get detention for a week or two and that flew all over the school and that wasn’t going to do with the other kids. So one of the good old boys caught the thug who beat the smaller kid up in the hallway and proceeded to do a beat down of Biblical proportions on him. He sent him to the hospital and I was told the words were spoken you best not ever touch “George” again you SOB or you’ll get worse. George was never bothered ever again.
