This is an issue that has been eating me up for many months now. From what I understand, they were going after people who were their "enemies" since first grade or soemthing. Perhaps that word is too dramatic, but SOMETHING happened to make those kids think of someone as their enemy. I'll wager it was mockery and derision. This is similar to what happened in columbine, and countless other poor kids thoughout the country. One of the worst sins, against God and against society (and yes, I'll use sin, because it really is one, and it also has that same sort of social impact. Use it as a metaphor if you must due to irrelgion). As I was saying, one of the worst sins is treating others like they are less than you because they dress or act or enjoy differently than you.
I'm spewing. But what I mean is that you do irreparable damage when you bully. You are hurting a person's soul. Yeah, maybe they're supposed to have a tougher hide and better coping skills, but that doesn't clear you of any crimes.
RGH. Just had to get that out. Bullies and tormentors MAKE ME ANGRY! Especially when people others get blamed for the results.
I'm not trying to remove the role proper upbringing has in this, but I'm saying that the victims of these slayings have caused some of the problems the aggressors have decided to inappropriately expressed
