How are you supposed to learn how to stand up for the weak?  

I didn't say we need kids getting pummeled. but we don't need to expel kids for bullying.   Everyone needs to face their own buddy revel.  

Yes some kids feel bad, but they also get a choice .... Stand up for themselves and defeat their fear or stay weak.    If they stay weak then another kid gets to break their fear and stand up for them.

What a load of malarkey.

Stand up for the weak?  Pffft.  In your world the weak take a good beating to learn that life is hard and the world isn't fair.

How about organized fights so we can make sure kids get matched up with a bully?  That'll make a man out of them!

Fear isn't weakness...it is being aware of what can hurt you.  It is a way to be alert and prepared.

Its burns my balls to have to hear another "manly man" suggest that fighting is the only way to prove you are "strong".  That is the thinking that gets us gangs and our culture where if you disagree with someone then shooting them is a perfectly reasonable way to settle your differences and the like.  Heaven FORBID we teach our kids to respect each other and each others differences when we can tell them to just get roughed up a little...or rough up the other guy a little...so they can "learn".

Ridiculous.

Is it a perfect world?  Of course not.

I was bullied.  I handled it.  I also avoided it because I wasn't dumb enough to think getting punched in the face was a "good idea".  When a bully picked on my son I explained to him what to do if it ever happened again.  It didn't.

I get that it DOES happen but to openly say you WANT it to happen and that somehow it is a GOOD thing is completely and utterly idiotic.  But no surprise based on the source of that "thought".
