[quote=Anonymous]This is terrible. Not a hate crime but these 3 are despicable and I hope they are tried as adults. If they were as tough as they act, then just one of them would take on the victim. It makes my stomach turn to think of the physical pain and fear he felt, while he was wondering if the bus driver would stop it.

I don't blame the driver for not physically intervening in this case because the attackers were big, obviously strong and vicious. The driver would have been beaten too. But he should have shouted at them to stop as soon as they started hitting the victim. News reports suggest that he didn't say anything for a full minute (when he spoke up the thugs stopped). For that he should be prosecuted.

The school messed this up in a bad way. How did these thugs find out that the victim had told the staff about the drugs?

I always would tell my kid to report anything she knows to be wrong to school staff but after this I'm rethinking that. Should we start telling our kids not to report such actions as drugs to school staff for fear they will become victims? Serious question. I certainly want my kid to do the right thing but not if they face this kind of retaliation.[/quote]
