I Support Bullying!
We should cut down on programs that cut down on bullying. Bullying is a part of life that kids have to get used to!

Let's be real. Let's not be dreamers. We know that once kids get out in the world, they will be attacked constantly by the real meanies. So bullying serves a social function. It toughens them up! What, newbies? Do you think the mean people won't be even worse than the bullies? If your kids can't take the bullying, how do you expect them to do in the general election - er - I mean real world? So we should accept and promote bullying, because it will be even worse later!

Does this logic sound familiar to anyone?

7. It is only the most serious bullying that gets noticed these days. And
that should stop. Passive kids get targetted and they need the help of society to not become scapegoats. Bullies learn from their actions and do we really want that? Cut them off at the knees when they are kids and they'll rethink how they operate.

9. You may want to put up a sarcasm smilie just to make your position clearer. I'll
admit i skim OPs sometimes and I missed your last line. I though you supported bullying. My bad for skimming.
