[quote=Anonymous]Oh, good, they are starting in on the poor bullied boy narrative.

Listen, young men in this country are done no favors because we have few pathways for them to tame their bullshit (ahem, excuse me, their masculinity) and become productive humans worthy of being included in the community.  Yes, I said it--some are simply not worthy right out of the gate and must be shaped into submission.  Some cultures send adolescent males up into a mountain to kill a tiger and prove they are worth it.  We let ours play video games and complain endlessly.

And spare me about the bullying over the speech impediment.  People who are different get bullied because deep down even the young know that "different" people are a threat to social cohesion and the safety of the community.  This is a deep, innate human feeling.  We are all lucky that we have medical science to help with ailments that otherwise would have gotten you left somewhere to die.

We need to get real about this stuff.  Kids like Ramos should have been sent away and whipped into shape by family and community elders by the time he was 13.  And of course this kid had no father.  OF COURSE.

No one will like what I am saying, but it's the truth.  Spare me the BS about how he should have gone to therapy.  Get real.  [/quote]
