A whole new level? Are you serious? Do you have any idea what black people in this country went through for the 100 years after slavery? What do you think the Civil Rights movement was about, jobs? Seriously? Just take slavery out of the equation: blacks in this country, up until the Civil Rights movement were treated inhumanely more often than not, with serious violations to their persons, including horrific violence. So, please, this 'whole new level' idea is complete BS.
Good job on missing the point. Let's not fix things because they were broken before. Let's just let the kids bully the other kids.
We were talking about bullying in school and among children. Too stuck on race to understand are you?
No wonder this country is falling apart.
You really need to stop with this ridiculous hyperbole, the country is not falling apart.
The premise of the OP is a hasty generalization fallacy, and fails accordingly. Isolated, anecdotal incidents are not representative of the Nation as a whole.
And as with most on the right your perception is clouded by partisanism, having nothing to do with fact.
what "partisanism?" Is that even a word? You should know by now that I'm an independent. Have you listened or read the news lately? Bullying is rampant. It's not an "isolated anecdotal incident." It is representative of the whole country today, that's my point. It's a bad thing and we need to do something to stop it.

4. 17% of American students report being bullied 2 to 3 times a month or more within a school semester.
You don't think "17%" is a significant amount to be worried about?
