Kids will be kids. This boils down to bad parenting.

Stop it, they beat up Mexicans all the time. Now this is a story?

So no one is talking about the kids beating him up we’re also black or at least some kind of brown.

This always happens, they never take these situations serious.

This is so disturbing. Sadly this has to be a learned behavior and sadly families have toxic ways and enablement so that's why these kids feel entitled to do what they do.

😡🤬

Until we stop the mindset of 'bullying builds character' we'll be stuck in this endless loop. There's more effective ways to teach humans how to deal with other humans. Violence should be addressed at every point. If someone wants to be violent then keep taking things away.

The officials do not know how to handle bullying. I don’t believe that have sufficient training on how to manage bullying. They have days off for training but who knows what kinda training they are receiving

Wow kids now days are so mean
