Large groups of people, such as protest groups and certainly society as a whole, don't do nuance as well as you seem to think. If people come to see a bully as just as much of a victim as his victims, then we will have school administrations spending time trying to get inside the bully's head and all of this nonsense instead of punishing their actions out of hand as we should so that we can get back to the business of teaching kids (or not teaching kids, whatever it is that goes on in schools these days). |
In this case the priority should be to both teach the bullying kid to stop harass the other pupils and to educate. Education is about learning, after all.
