    Maybe in a thread about a bullied kid that went on a killing rampage, we should be more magnanimous to one another?

    I hesitate to go on such a tangent in a thread like this, but the Eastern Orthodox Churches (including Greek Orthodox) and the Roman Catholic Church split in 1054 in the Great Schism. Orthodox do not recognize the primacy of the Bishop of Rome. But in any case, definitely Christian and not at all Muslim.

    Yeah...we hear a lot about students bullying, but from my personal experience, observations and information passed along to me, coaches can be the worst instigators of bullying in school.

    I've seen it. Had coaches ask about "that weird kid" which in turn put a spotlight on the kid from teammates who'd bully. I remember one kid killed himself and wrote a note citing a player. That was rough.

    Marilyn Manson, video games and bullying have been blamed for mass school shootings and now the moronic Dan Patrick is blaming the design of school entrances. Anything, but the guns.

    Coaches. Seen it too. For sure. Always football. Never the other sports (that I witnessed).

    At this point the better strategy would probably be giving jail time for bullying, instead of trying to ban guns (which is just impossible in America's case, as you say).

    the level of outrage and bullying in this thread about fellow posters is insanely high. triggered from someone who came here thinking about rockets, use shootings to put down a town, put down a poster, scream at everyone except shooter. wtf

    I am glad that I am finished with school. That said the gun epidemic in America is a direct result of gun nuts, Republicans, and the NRA. They succeeded in turning America into a sh**hole country.

    when you say something idiotic and completely dumb you deserve it, not sure where the wtf comes from unless you share the same stupid thoughts

    The same constructive criticism could have been rendered in a loving way: "Brother, this isn't the right time to be thinking about the Rockets. This tragic event is more important than the game." Instead we get some (perhaps minor) cyberbullying, telling him he's a terrible person to say such a thing, he should be banned, he's an idiot, etc. Ordinarily (and maybe regrettably), that wouldn't even make me blink, but I'm sensitive in this thread. I encourage you to recognize that people make mistakes and we can admonish the mistakes while still not alienating the person.

    some things can be considered just basically out of line so im not speaking for anyone else. thats me and what i thought. i mean theres a ton of bad posters on this board and you can easily tell who keeps it consistent which further confirms it. to get respect you have to give some. absolutely none in that post

    No but what has been done since the last one? They have proven you can’t put faith in them.

    Schools need to turn into airports pretty soon.
