    This kind of reminds me of when I was in the 6th grade in 1978 or 1979. We had this mean and very strict teacher. There was a new girl from Vietnam . She was always quiet and very shy. There were 2 kids behind her teasing her. The girl walked to the teachers desk crying - full of tears. The teacher told her to go to the restroom and wash her face. Once the girl left the teacher screamed at the 2 bullies saying "How dare you pick on that poor girl... " She then yelled at all of us about how we should be more welcoming to people from other countries and how many of them have it rough to try to learn a new language and start a new and better life. At the time I didn't put 2 and 2 together to think about the Vietnam war just 4 years from then. Looking back the teacher was strict...but she wasn't mean.

      I think that today the strict no violence policies in many US public school systems are better than we had it in the 60's and 70's. Some teachers would even laugh at the small boys who were mercilessly picked on by boys twice our size.
      A few times I had to just give up in massive frustration, and slug a bully hard in the face repeatedly, to make the point that further bullying would have consequences, at least with me. I was smart enough to take action within shouting distance of a teacher (and I didn't always win while sending a clear message), and at least I didn't get in trouble when the bully said I started it, and I pointed out that the bully started it six months or so before.
      Finally I had a big growth spurt and lifted weights for two years, effectively ending me being an easy target, but many children aren't so lucky.
      I was really impressed with the quiet but effectively and minimally violent way the new boy was able to demonstrate that you do NOT want to escalate violence against him.
      And you could see how even with all the evidence, how clueless the teacher was to actually control the bully without clear and uncompromising policies toward bullying.

      She led that boy on. Teachers must be very careful with gullible minds. Nowadays there's too much mental instability, corrupt TV shaping our children's minds and behaviors and faulty parenting at home. Nice ending tied up in a little bow, but this movie's sobering message about gun control, weapons in the home within a child's reach, and how violence creeps into a child's heart at such an early age without conflict resolution and personal interaction skills, shows things could've gone way south.

The teacher that till this day i remember, discriminated me and punished me everyday for not participating in class. which was hard for me since everyone bullied me since my speaking abilities were very poor. Although these memories never fade i can tell you this; all of these series of events build you to be the one who stands up for those in need...

Bullying is deliberate torment and singling out of one person and it is rarely resolved in the way depicted in this video. It is a nice film to watch but do not confuse it with real life school plz.
