I'm not buying into the bullying crap. Bullies have always been around. So has crazy people.
What hasn't been around "for ages" was the idea that the schools and society for that manner, should bend backwards to your every whim. Catered to you every whim. and sheltered from every opinion different from from your own.
Our society's little snowflakes are taught both overtly and subliminally that they are "special" and deserve whatever they want, WITHOUT the necessary hard work and perseverance that early generations learned by rote. Failure wasn't their fault so it had to be the system or The Man
We have a national party whose whole philosophy can be summed up with "Not your responsibility, we'll shaft HIM for you" IF you give us your vote"
And the Republicans aren't much better.
If Trump hadn't been elected the process would have been accelerated under Hillary. Trump has given us a little breathing room and a chance to correct some of this but it will take a least a generation or more.
Hence expect more shootings in the meantime.
Sounds on point.
