I don't know if any of you have heard about this video yet. It's called making the bus monitor cry. After watching it I was infuriated. I hate that we have come to a time in history where something like this happens. I hate that little ____s like this were not smacked across the mouth by somebody on that bus. I hate that that kind of thing is not allowed now. This video is going viral and I hope that the delinquents parents see their offspring here and are ashamed and give them the punishment they so richly deserve. Kind of long but you don't have to watch much to get the idea.
WARNING, ADULT LANGUAGE.

Heard about this on one of today's Hodge Twins videos.
I'll be a high school senior in September and while I haven't seen my peers (at any point in time, from elementary school up until now) harass someone to such an extent, there's plenty of pointlessly sadistic crap to be witnessed on the ride home. It's died down to just a couple of bad seeds per route, but there were more in junior high. I don't know what it is about that age, if it's insecurity, trouble at home, or hormones... either way, it's pretty sickening. What blows my mind in particular is that this woman hasn't done anything to deserve the kind of treatment endured in the video. She wasn't even looking at them. For poops and giggles, they just pick on her because they can. I bet if I asked for a reason, they'd reply with some smartass remark like "because she's fat and stupid" which is basically idiot-speak for "I don't have a clue."
Ugh, where does the need to pull a stunt like this come from? What pubescent kid is so insecure or bored or whatever the hell it is that they have to raise themselves up by pushing others down? If there's some deep psychological explanation, please let me know. It's all useless stupidity to me.
PS: I feel I should mention a somewhat-related occurence from last year. We were carpooling back home from school and this jock kid in the bus in front of us looked through the back window, flipped us off, and if my memory serves, licked his hand or the glass or something like that. All I remember wondering was why. Like really, why? What thought could've gone through his head to make him think that was worth taking two seconds out of his life to do? What did he hope to get out of it? Far as I know, no one was offering to give happy endings to 'badasses' making obscene gestures in the back of the bus, so why? Just a head-scratcher moment.
Well if they dig into these kids' lives and post their names and info all around the internet, life could become pretty difficult for them. Many employers google your name prior to hiring you these days.
Deservedly so, in the case of these kids. I know the general consensus is that things you do don't officially come back to bite you in the rear end until high school, but come on now. That deadline needs to be pushed forward. You can't conduct yourself like this, not even at age 12. Heh, I was actually apprehensive of using the F-word in front of my friends until 15.
Oh, dear. Watch the video and skip to 1:23. I doubt those bullies would've felt the slightest shred of guilt if she told them at the time, but it just goes to show you that words cut deeper than the surface. You never know so don't even try it.
