  1. No offense but if anyone did that to me back in the you I was growing up they will be put in a mental home locked away or just be disowned and abandoned by their parents cuz that wasn't ladylike I suggest we do it today maybe they can learn some manners

  2. The sad truth is that teachers and school administrators are more afraid of the bullies and their parents than they are of the good kids and their parents. They think that if the bullies act the way they do, then what are the parents who raised them going to be like. And they simply decide it is easier to just turn a blind eye to the tormented kids than risk the unpleasantness of having to straighten out a bunch of crazy tyrants. It was this way when I was in school 50 years ago, and nothing has changed. If anything, it has actually gotten worse.

  3. Just take the administration out "By The People"

  4. STOP THE BULLYING STATEWIDE HEARTBREAKING 🙏

  5. Funny how the bullies who posted video of Adriana on social media took down all their social media accounts. Guess they don't like to be harassed or bullied online

  6. The principal helped bully me in 1981

  7. Yall saw the flag and went idc… get it right!

  8. Schools need to reach out for our children because bullying is out of control. Stop the MADNESS young men and women love one another

  9. glad children are being held accountable for their actions. Age doesn't matter, teach your kids not to bully or harass. If they can't behave, send them to alternative learning. Adults are responsible for their children, if their children don't behave their children (or they) should be held accountable. If you don't want your kid to end up dead like this girl or in trouble like the other students, or possibly take the blame yourself because you decided to have kids and not raise them properly, then you should start teaching now.

  10. What they need to do is get 8 to 10 school security that would break up a fights and hold students accountable for their actions plus a resource police officer on high school campus. Plus the teachers need to know that they're protected as well. I know this doesn't help right away but it would deter some criminal activity committed on campus.

  11. Humiliation can make self-murder how cruel way can do. Whatever personality favorite out there.

  12. Very disturbing. Very. The bullies must spend atleast a year in prison. They must. Bullying MUST STOP!!!!! They must learn their lesson.

  13. Lol so a pretty girl unalives herself and people lose their minds, and 70 percent of suicide is male yet it isn't talked about?

  14. Sue the parents into oblivion, and use the money to ruin the bullies lives.

  15. This is happening everywhere, Google students assaulting teachers. Nothing will be done about this. The victim isn't a member of the protected classes.

  16. Where was y’all at when other people and families were dealing with this? Jesus

  17. If she was black. You know Soro would sponsor people to demand answers

  18. If you white you don't matter… only druggies thugs and criminals matter
