This article talks about a new anti-bullying bill that turned out to be a "joke" according to superintendent Flanagan. He says that this bill will allow bullies to bully people who are gay, lesbian, or transgender. This bill will also open the doors for people of certain religion to get bullied as well. People want the bill to have the inserted lagnuage to be removed and add a passage that will band bullying for people having a certain sexual preference.
I agree with this article that there needs to be rules that will band any kind of bullying what so ever. Bullying is something that should seen wrong and not allowed by anyone to anyone. I do beleive though, that schools need to start stepping up to the plate and take more responsibility for what is going on their schools. WHy do they need a bill to tell them what is acceptable. Shouldn't the schools know what should be happening in thier schools? Isn't their job to protect and have the child's safety in mind. I know that when I drop off my son at school I'm expecting everyone that works in that school to make sure my child as well as others are safe. If that isn't the case then why send them off to school.
