Gay Teen: Stop Bullying or I’ll Sue

This is probably the dumbest thing I've seen in a while....and I just watched Sarah Palin's Alaska.

It is impossible to 'stop bullying' of any sort, nevermind the 'gay-bashing' sort. This child is...being a child.

He's not being unrealistic by calling for the law to be enforced by teachers.
 
usa again? hey dude ons da news help um rewrite da words what da bit paper independance freedom thing

Yeah, I think he should focus more on the enforcement of anti-bullying policies, as opposed to trying to get the policy to mention sexual orientation.

I like his spunk! :=D: :=D: :=D:

Realistically, where is a 15-year-old kid going to get the funds to pay for an attorney to file a lawsuit?

I'm saying that if the school is not enforcing it's anti-bullying policies in the first place, then it probably won't help that much to establish a more specific policy on anti-gay bullying.
 
The cavalcade of stupidity never ends.Clearly, it had a lasting effect on you.

I'll say this one last time, just so it sinks in for everyone:

The school failed to properly address death threats.

CAPICHE?

Jeezum lord fuckin Christ on a piece of Melba Toast.

Here I thought I was mildly sociopathic.

Yes, darling, I understand that. Clearly you're missing the point where he wants to have the state 'ban' bullying. This is a personal situation that he's escalated to something state-wide.

You cannot 'ban' bullying. Even the notion is absurd. Death threats or not, this is what he's asking. Did you read the article attached?

Oh, and typing in caps and large lettering is rather annoying and I tend to skip those posts. So, if you want to be read...it might be best to have a civil conversation.
 
I like the initiative but legally, I can't see that he'd have standing to sue if the bullying were not directed at him.

He can, of course, encourage the victims to sue and assist them that way.
 
What appalls me more than anything in this thread is the sickening "Bullying is part of growing up, bullying is inevitable/necessary/essential" bullshit. It's a sa d reflection on what we laughably call "education" and its environments in the English speaking West that we have come to accept tribal factionalism and persecution amongst our young as part and parcel of the experience of being young, of growing up.

Ideally, there would be a situation whereby if a child is consistently nharassing another child, and there was sufficient evidence to back those claims up, the child in question would be expelled and barred from the school environment, their parents made explicitly aware what was happening, and they will not be allowed back on school premises until the school authorities are sufficiently satisfied that the behaviour will not continue. That's how I dealt with bullying in my classroom during my brief stint as an English teacher: "Get out. You're not welcome in my classroom."

"Where should I go?"

"I don't care. Go home. You're not welcome here until you start acting like a human being."

It got me in some hot water a couple of times, but I'm eloquent and considered enough to argue my case quite effectively. Also, the fact that I made a point of PERSONALLY telephoning the parents of the children in question to inform them of the behaviour I'd witnessed often made all the difference. And I can tell you this: the kids in my classrooms were happy as a result.

The fact that we culturally allow victimisation of our children under the auspices that it's somehow part and parcel of the experience of being a child is atrocious. We don't accept similar in any other arena of life: at the work place, in a domestic arrangement; then we call it harassment, abuse, victimisation. At school, regarding individuals who are still emotionally and intellectually maturing, we just shrug and call it "bullying;" a fucking stupid cartoon euphemism for abuse.
 
Wow! How did I miss this thread? The number of sheer ignorant responses is staggering. Yes, schools can be sued people! Jamie Nabozny set precedent across the country that they do in fact need to deal with bullying, or can be sued. It's sad that despite his $1+ million award that schools are still ignoring it.

^Ummm...

No -- he's telling the school's that if they don't create policies to PREVENT bullying that he'll SUE the SCHOOLS...

At least, that was MY TAKE on the article...

There is NO CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT to NOT be bullied...

That I'm aware of anyways...

:lol::lol::lol:

And you'd be wrong! Dead wrong!

Right. Jamie Nabozny sued as a victim of bullying and therefore had standing to sue. If you're not otherwise the victim of any bullying then I can't see what standing uou'd have to bring any sort of lawsuit.

In the case of Caleb Laieski, as an activist, I admire what he's doing and I wish him well but unless he finds a victim of bullying to bring the lawsuit, he can't take legal action. He can assist victims to bring their own suits and support them through that - financially, legally, emotionally.
 
If the government says "pay your taxes or we'll arrest you" is THAT bullying?

If we take that a step further the entire legal system (which is based upon psychological ramifications of punishment) is bullying.

oh yes, these things are all bullying. in which, we've all been bullied

So I have to be killed before I can complain of being murdered?
 
Give 'em hell Caleb! Don't take their shit!

No, you just have to be the victim, or intended victim, of the action which you are complaining about. If you are not a direct victim, the law does not give you standing to bring a suit unless it's representative action on the part of a victim willing to be the named plaintiff/complainant in an action.

I may be wrong - the legal position in the United States may be wholly different to the system we have here in Australia.

As an aside, in the case of murder, there's no victim's right of complaint. The State bears the responsibility of prosecuting for murder, or manslaughter, where a person causes the death of another.

If there is no death, action may be brought by the State for attempted murder.

Depending on the jurisdiction, the victims family may sue for wrongful death.
