As the saying goes, you either live with it and hope you don't end up not thinking straight for a single moment, or end up hurting/killing someone. Because you can't help yourself by going to teachers, you can't simply try to get the police involved, you can only sit their being constantly batted around and laughed at until you do something or someone does something for you.
[QUOTE=LoLWaT?;44523106]Why the hell is this the nature of every case where a single person is being ganged up on by several others for seemingly no reason at all? Why don't they do their fucking jobs instead of taking the easy way out ALWAYS? Maybe school shootings wouldn't be a thing if they didn't leave the victims to take matters into their own hands. But that's assuming if they don't cave mentally first.[/QUOTE] This, as well as how the news pretty much encourages drug abuse and school shootings be explaining how they do that, scoring them with other killers and dramatizing how "awesome" it is. No wonder school shootings are even a thing.

Felony Wiretapping? Whoever levied those charges needs to be fired and the judge that allowed it needs to be put away in prison and rot for 10-20 years. If you're on public property, you have no reasonable expectation of privacy. People are allowed to record video and audio in public places, and even record private property if it's in plain sight from a public place.
[QUOTE=Oizen;44523137]From my expierence, Violence is the best solution to bullies. Teachers don't do shit.[/QUOTE] It's a double-blade really. I let myself get batted around in the 6th grade because I was afraid of being sent to juvenile detention after a mental breakdown in the 4th Grade landed a 250 pound cop with his knee into my spine, and when I got to the 7th grade, I ended up snapping one day because some guy threw me down a flight of stairs and cut my backpack open with a pair of scissors. I ended up taking the guy and slamming him into a pole few times, and shattered a few of his teeth in. At the moment, I didn't care what would happen, I really was just letting out anything that was bottled up at that point. When I came to the principles office, they were close to calling in a police officer, and I was literally sent into panic mode, crying and pleading them not to. If it wasn't for the fact my English teacher saw the event from down the hall, I would of been arrested that day. That situation later put me in to a bad predicament though. They kept me on a "one fuckup, you're done" type deal, and the second someone told me to go commit suicide like one of my family member's did, I raised my voice, and I ended up getting kicked out for two months, and the rest of my school year was spent going home on a half-bus, getting half-days.

[QUOTE=Oizen;44523137]From my expierence, Violence is the best solution to bullies.

There will always be people looking for easy targets, a little confidence even if just in your body language goes a long way. The best thing to do in my experience is show that you're either willing to get physical (for childhood bullies not necessarily dangerous ones) or that you aren't bothered by them.
[QUOTE]In Pennsylvania, a high school sophomore with developmental disabilities was convicted of a crime after recording classmates threatening to "pull down his pants"[/QUOTE] They secretly wanted the D, seriously through this system is laughable.
If you're gonna get in deep shit anyways, just fucking kill your bullies. Just do it already jesus christ this is infuriating.
This is completely disgusting, fuck that school. Those kids deserve to be expelled and that school deserves to be sued.
I am literally at a loss of words for this.I was bullied in HS to the point where I tried killing myself and often came home in tears. I was never able to stick up for myself due to my size, but people eventually grew up and realized all the harm they caused me and apologized profusely. I can only hope the people who torture this kid realize what they are doing and wise up. In most cases though, they don't... so I believe a swift ass kicking is in order.
I wish I were badass enough to charge a mentally disabled person with a felony for sticking up for themselves.
[quote]The officer agreed but eventually reduced the charge to disorderly conduct on the basis that the student engaged in offensive actions [B]“which served no legitimate purpose.”[/B][/quote] Bullshit. Bull-fucking-shit. We really need an overhaul of the education system.
The media makes such a loud cry about the bullying problem, but this is why there is a problem. Because often times the bullying victim is punished harder than the bully is. These charges are bullshit, he didn't wiretap anything, he recorded it with an iPad.
The way the schools now are nowadays, at least in my area, really only supports bullies. You're not allowed too retaliate, but they can punch your lights out the second someone turns their back. And you always know that every time you want to retaliate, someone is going to be watching and blame you. Edit: what's wrong with the post?

That Title How do you JUSTIFY this? How the fuck do you justify this? I want to meet the people behind this and I want them to pinpoint the reason on how they can justify pushing these charges on a Special Needs Student.

They did so by calling him in and telling him that I had made a complaint about him, and to leave me alone. That worked super well of course, few days afterwards he walked up and showed me how he had a broken pair of scissors that he'd use to cut my throat with. So we went back to the principal, this time with half my family talking about how we'd sue the school and his family if he ever laid a finger on me, suddenly the school wanted to do something about it :v:
the most american article I've seen all day! Making fun of disabled people, 0 tolerance policy, and unlimited power judges not doing their job because they don't have to!
This sort of thing is why I hate the public school system and why it needs a mass reworking of its entire structure, because it isn't working the way it was intended. The worst part is the little fuckers who bullied him had no sort of repercussions or punishment. What was the point and what were they thinking?

Then again, you need to look for good news if you really want it to begin with.

As for how the kid was actually convicted I don't want to know what's wrong with that judge.

what an utter joke that wiretapping is pushed on civilians instead of the press or state yknow, the people that use it for gain??
[QUOTE=Vodkavia;44523226]I'm pretty sure Wiretapping is illegal in all public and private places, while paradoxically putting a camera pointed directly into your neighbor's house to get them busted for indecent exposure is completely legal :v:[/QUOTE] Joke's on you, wiretapping is completely legal if one of the parties involved consents to it.
