Subject: What Do You Guys Think?

Hey Little Brothers,

Know this is off topic some and maybe with Easter and spring break you dudes have not kept up on news events but wondering what you guys might think about all the violence & crap of bullying etc going on around the country?

Last fall, it was a 15 y/o dude in Florida who got doused with alcohol & set on fire by classmates over a bicycle dispute & burned pretty bad. Then the same HS last month had a girl knocked down & kicked hard in the head & last I heard was hospitalized in coma with serious head injuries. Then just before Easter, it was a 15 y/o girl in western Massachusetts that was bullied & even raped by 2 dudes, they say, to point she went home & hung herself and then a 13 y/o little dude in Texas bullied & hung himself too when he got home from school out in his dad's barn.

This kicks my gut. Hell man, I had fights growing up & as I've said, got my ass whupped & deserved it. Did my share of school & neighborhood stunts, probably like you dudes have done too, and ended up grounded or rubbing a sore ass awhile but never thought to gang rape a girl or kick a dude or girl in head with steel toe boot or bully really excessively anyone to drive them to kill themselves. Any dudes at your HS into such crappy behavior? If I'd been hauled to the principal or cops haul me home for this sh-t, my dad would've tore every inch of flesh off my butt cheeks & bet your dads would too.

What do you guys make of it all or think is the root of such behavior? Any of you bullied growing up or maybe even tried bullying others & either caught & punished or wised up soon enough to stop that sh-t before any real harm?

Know this is a bit off sports, holiday & spring break talk & other topic norms but curious if you dudes being in HS still have any thoughts. Forgive a 25 y/o big bro if he's getting too morbid or serious in this topic but as I said, it kicked my gut hearing & especially young dudes & girls killing themselves.
