I bullied and picked on kids I thought were weird, to seem more popular. I got into frequent fights, and I was suspended a couple times as well. Throughout all 4 years of high school, I fought, bullied, and intimidated many kids, because my friends thought it was funny.
I am now in my mid twenties.
Do I regret my past behavior? Of course I do! I realize now as an adult how stupid it was for me to try and impress kids I wouldn't see after high school, of picking on kids who already had enough trouble as is.
The reason I made this post is because I'm saddened so many people seem to think high school bullies deserve to receive harsh punishment, like jailed for life or even getting killed.
This post is the one that made me decide to write this thread.
I am not advocating bullying, I think it is awful and bullies deserve to be punished. But extremes such as this? Getting killed? A "Genocide" of bullies? That's too much. There will always be bullies, and although the may be douches at some point, hopefully a good deal of them grow up realizing how much of a dick they were, and later contribute positively to society.
If you truly regret your actions, Go find those people you've bullied and seek their forgiveness.
