Bullies Have No Gender

What of the mean spirited rhetoric or actions by bullies, seemly always directed at the weaker, the misunderstood, the different, outside of the clique that's in. To listen and not object, is validation by silence, is it not? How can it end, if not challenged by a friend. How can it end, if free to exist and flourish, without a penalty or downside, pausing the trend, no matter the tribe in power at the end. Who will stand up, to the attacks and suppression of spirits, causing insides to cower. How much time needs to go by, before instead of bullying having power, causing laughter and derision, we all come to a collective decision. To help the consciousness of a bully, unlearn the path of pain, generated by life's wrong turns. Better sooner then later, before ashes become forgotten, in so many urns.

Hello Randolph, The way i see this is: these bullies were bullied when they were younger, that is that is the way i see. they get joy doing it to someone else. Because they do not know better. Too bad there are trolls around. Which makes it sad. enjoy your evening my friend.
