It also doesn't absolve them of their personal responsibility. We all have free will and how you choose to exercise that is up to you (obviously). Blaming the inappropriate actions of others for your own inappropriate actions is what elementary age children do.
Looking at cause and effect is what adults do. If a child does not misbehave or act violent until bullied then the bully is usually blamed.
Why do you think we have such a strong anti-bullying emphasis is schools these days?
How do you feel about "stand your ground" laws? It is bad to shoot someone, so should people be required to run away from an aggressor instead of defending themselves? If they do defend themselves instead of running away are they just as bad as the aggressor?
