Re:What is a Slashdot? (Score 1)

Schools have taken entirely the wrong approach to fixing this problem. It seems that when a student is being taunted and he/she threatens to retaliate in some way, *that* student is punished. How messed up is that?? So bullies can badger a student all year long, harass the hell out of some one to the point where an otherwise well behaved individual would threaten to commit some heinous act - and walk free! And the victim is punished! Why is it that the students harassed this boy were not even spoken to? I think that when this sort of thing happens it should be the harassers that should be taken out of school, it would make the entire school experience much more pleasant for many.
