Once the chillin figger out how much power they have, the tail will wag the dog. But hey, let’s sit back and watch the folly unfold, for a little entertainment.
Well at least it’s a new source of income for the Sheriff’s department.
A five year old is not legally responsible for his actions, except in the perverted bizarro world America has become.
I have zero tolerance for schoolyard bullies but it's lunacy to charge some child in kindergarten with a misdemeanor. Kick them out of school, absolutely. I'm all for that. But if a child that young is bullying others, there is a serious problem at home that should be addressed.
This law is not directed at kids — it’s society’s desperate response to lousy parents who have failed in their primary job, which is to mold monsters into civilized humans.
When I was in elementary school, if a teacher reported bad behavior to a parent, the parent assumed smoke = fire. The parent took the teacher’s word about what was going on. You were in big trouble at home, which was far worse than anything the school could do to you.
Now no parent believes their kid has done anything wrong, ever — so there’s no such thing as “big trouble at home.” Parents have decided their job is to be criminal defense attorneys. Admit nothing. Proclaim innocence. And if their kid hasn’t done anything wrong, why would that kid need correcting? The problem is the teacher doesn’t like their kid. Oh, and they’re going to sue.
So the anti-social bullies are free to run amok and terrorize kids from better parents.
Society has to let kids of parents like this into the school. Bad parents have brought this on themselves. They won’t do their job. So now they get the State stepping in.
Can someone explain to me how this type of ‘anti-bullying’ law is any less threatening to our children than no law at all?
The idea that adults can pluck children off the street or out of a classroom and charge them with bullying for no legitimate example of bullying behavior, is anti-American. We must put a stop to it. This is the legacy of the PC ‘anti-hate speech’ laws.
