Yes insult my intelligence and call me a troll. That makes it all better.
I shouldn't have to do this, but screw it. Let me explain what I mean.
Bullies make kids feel hopeless, powerless, and desperate. When a person feels this way, they react badly to provocation. Their desperation causes them to act irrationally. So when a threatening bully comes along and provokes them, they usually do one of two things.
A) succumb to it completely (due to learned helplessness) or,
B) react against it decisively and preemptively (due to the fight-or-flight instinct which is triggered out of proportion to what's actually happening, again due to learned helplessness)
The bully is not responsible for their victim's specific decision to slam them with a baseball bat, but they are responsible for creating the psychological conditions that led them to resort to extreme violence. This is why people do not feel bad for bullies.
They are not blameless. They bring it upon themselves.
Didn't your mom ever tell you not to play with fire? You never know when it might burn you.
Ok, So going off of that. You feel its okay that bully victims at columbine shot up the school and killed the bullies correct?
I feel bad for bullies. I feel bad for anyone who gets injured by a weapon when they are unarmed.
