TPTB/Nazites and those that have connections, masons etc can do what ever they want continually and get away with it. Best to learn the truth of how things work at a young age because this isn't going to change. |

If you can brainwash the kids at an early age that they must not stand up to anyone trying to bully them, it will make martial law much easier to accomplish. I'd like to agree with you, but then we would both be wrong. To get ahead in life, you have to learn to saddle your own horse. |

I would also help him learn ways to sulence the bullys quicker and stealthier. |

My son was sent to an alternative education facility for a month for defending himself in a fight. He's a straight A honors student who had go to a jail-like school with drug dealers and gang bangers. According to school officials, a student may not strike another student, even if it's in self defense. My question to them was "What should he have done? Curl up in a ball on the ground?" The principal agreed that the policy makes no sense. |

The kids from the low income housing picked on him daily because he had been skipped 2 grades. One day he took matters into his own hand, in our own yard by picking up a 2x4 and cracking them. Received a call to the principals office where I was told he would be suspended. I told her to go to hell as I had been reporting the bullying on a regular basis and she had done nothing to stop it. I reported her to the school board, she had to rescind the suspension and from that point on, the bullies stopped bullying and I would no longer take calls from the principal. To this day my son is still terrified of one of those boys who went on to an illustrious career with the HA and is now serving time for murder. My son became a geek. Bullying is not cool.

If a student is involved in a physical altercation on school property, they are automatically suspended.” Quoting: Laura Bow It goes on to say, “District 11 schools employ many anti-bullying teaching techniques … and none of these methods include violence or retaliation.” This just happened to the 16 year old son of a friend of mine. Straight A kid, got jumped by 3 others because he was seen talking to a girl that one of the bullies was interested in. Three on one fight. Kid was only defending himself and HE got suspended for being "involved in a fight". . |
