I think you're wrong.
Why does anyone think they have the right to mock or judge anyone based on their appearance? You seem to be
suggesting that someone wearing something you think is funny is deserving of ridicule and bullying, just because
they're different. It's not okay, whether they choose to wear clown makeup or have a disability. People need to learn to keep their
mouths shut and their hurtful gossiping comments to themselves. It actually just shows how empty their lives
are if they have time to b*tch about how someone else looks.

So, it would help her for her father to go to jail for a very long time? That would solve nothing, and in this day and age that is what would happen, given this situation. Then, the bullies would win. Better to keep a level head, film their behavior, and hope the school system, or judicial system, can do something about it.

Solving a root cause fixes the problem instead of covering it over.

I've called out teenagers on our LRT system here for making fun of an older person in a wheel chair.
I said it out loud, very loud, and the whole train look upon them in shame.
This is personal because my brother struggles very deeply with mental and physical disabilities.

Obviously targeting a defenseless
disabled child crosses the line.
The neighbor needs professional help with his
own handicap, before he permanently ends up with
one himself. But why were the bus monitors not
reporting this ?
The school needed to do something about the bullying
earlier, now the poor child is afraid to go to school.
The school, the bus driver, monitors also have the
responsibility to report and educate ignorant trash as this.
