So folks are not allowed to report bullies, high? Maybe just stop the bullying.

If your reply is towards me Bestill, what is the "Whole" meaning??

The kids I worked with were kids that were associated with my businesses.

what group did you work with time?

I do agree that most gun nuts were bullied and probably still are.

They may have saw something and said something but they never did anything. The teachers should have done something to get Cruz into the group. Instead they did things that pushed him out of the group. Over the years I have worked with your people and when I saw a kid that was an outsider, I did what I could to make that kid a part of the group. I know a young person here in Wilkes who I think is possibly dangerous. He was bullied by others and reacted badly to the bullying. I did what I could to get him accepted by the group and so far he hasn't killed anyone I know of.

Well, the whole ‘see something say something’ clearly failed.

May be off topic, yet i took a friend to the DR Monday. There were only 6-7 in waiting room as they called my friend back. But one seat down were 2 adults one male & one female & a good sized girl maybe 12yrs old. I'm sure the elder woman was the kids mom they favored so much. They called the guy back & all the while the mom & daughter kept waving at me. I ask if they knew me & they said no. I could tell the girl was some what mentally disabled. So the elder guy came out before my friend & the other got up to leave. He was going out but the mom stopped & grabbed my hand & said glad to meet you. The girl stopped & grabbed my hand & hugging my neck & said i love you & was squalling as she exited the waiting room. I still wonder today what was going on, prbly never know...

We can't change human nature. We can change how easy it is for nuts to kill innocent people.

What circumstances, glit?

Here is the next question, Bestill....How many other kids in the school are still being bullied? How do we know another isn't going to be the next shooter? We can't ignore the circumstances of what led to the shooting just because we are afraid of defending the shooter.

Just reading about his actions, Time. Here is hoping that he will reform.

But will we ever hear what he says? Even if we do, you will still be calling him a bully.

He has the opportunity to speak for himself.

You are hearing only one side. Now, everyone want to blame Cruz and his gun. No one is telling his side of this story.

Well, maybe you just haven’t kept up, Time. Not only did he physically bully but all those threats of racial and religious violence. One student, well several, reported the bullying.

Your assumption is that Cruz was doing the bullying and not just reacting to being bullied.

Well, we are talking the bullying here glit, and here is a question, how come none of the kids that the shooter bullied shot up the school?

If all you self-riteous, bleeding hearts sincerely and truly want to find solutions and answers to these horrific shootings, absolutely every angle has to be looked at....everything.
