I dont understand what all the fuss is about...

This guy wonders who we think we are as a country. The U.S. was founded on principals of genocide and the forcible seizure of assets and land. We seem to ignore this factual tidbit, and don't seem to be aware that the current trend of "bullying" is nothing but a continuation of a genetic predisposition of past aggressive behaviors. The United States has always had an "enemy" to unite and fight against since before it's official flag planting/claim/ and establishment. Guess what: It hasn't gotten any worse. It hasn't gotten any better. It's as it always has been. In regards to the increase of teens pushed around by bullies resulting in an increase of teen suicide: The only new development is the more we plug in, the less we can turn off the knowledge that these negative opinions exist. The more we allow our youth to stay indoors, isolated in a controlled and comfortable environment, the harder the landing they have when the real world presents itself after being pushed out of the nest. Here's a thought. Teach personal strength, self worth, dismissal and defense to youth so that they have the tools to brush off the negative comments and appropriate reactions when maliciousness presents itself. The bullies aren't going away. Not by a long shot
