What do people think should happen to those kids, especially if they admit to it?
1) Juvenille Hall
2) Lynching
3) Fine
4) Expulsion
5) Parents punished
I have no idea, but I think something should happen.

Kids will be kids, name calling and teasing is not a crime! its a part of growing up, I'm quite shure you did the same as did I.

In this case I think the perfect punishment for the bullies at the school would be to take them to the morgue where the victim lay and make them not only look at the body of the dead boy, but acknowledge that they played some part in pushing him over the edge with their bullying. They need to know that their actions have real consequences. They need to know what real consequences look like - what real death looks like.
Maybe that will put some sense into their brainless heads.

I got called much worse in grade school and didn't hang myself. I don't agree with bullying but I DO agree with growing a pair. Life sucks, get a helmet.
Edit: Just please, PLEASE don't be shooting up your schools, M'kay?

Bullies are the ones with a mental disorder. Think about it - why does someone bully someone else in the first place? Two reasons I can think of are to make themselves feel better because they don't feel good about themselves or because they like exerting power over someone else. In either case, the need that drives someone to bullying is an indicator that something is wrong in their own life.
