“Kids lie a lot,” responded Coriell, the principal. “They lie about all kinds of things. They blow lots of things out of proportion on a daily basis. In 17 years, they do it all the time. So to my knowledge, at 2 o’clock when I checked again, there were no pictures.”
This. And of course those faculty slept on the job punishing the brats but when the victim disciplines the criminals on their behalf, she gets punished for enforcing the rules.
I am going to become Light Yagami.
zero tolerance rules are some bullshit. punishing the victim equal to the perpetrator is insane.
Yeah I used to get bullied for being autistic a lot in school. Whenever I’d get into fights I’d always hear, “If someone hits you and you hit them back, that makes you just as guilty.”
Well my wife is autistic too and used to get the same shit plus sexual harassment. There was a “game” some of the boys were playing while she was in school (in the same place Deliverance was filmed) where they would just run up to girls and grab their boobs. Someone did that to her and she beat the living shit out of them and got expelled. The teachers just said, “Boys will be boys,” about all the sexual assault that was going on. But at least she got to leave that piece of shit school and that fuckin guy got his ass kicked by a tiny Mexican girl. She had also thrown a girl down a flight of stairs at that school for calling her a slur for lesbians but apparently that was fine since it was girl on girl violence.
Leaves a pretty big opening for communists to reach the working class by saying, “No hitting back is justified.”
