how can you do this.

How can people bully each other so much that the victim wants to kill him/herself. I've been a week without my laptop and I haven't been paying attention to the news and then Megan asks me if I want to go to the vigil. I asked, "What for?" As in what's the vigil for? And then she said, "That's right you don't have your laptop" which is where I get all my news from nowadays. She proceeded to explain to me about the suicides because of bullying.  I clicked on a home page news link and I can barely get through the first two paragraphs of the article because it's so depressing. How can people treat each other like this? Why makes one person better than another? It absolutely blows my mind that people can do this and why is the media just now bringing attention to the problem? And the schools! Why don't they do anything? You know that the teachers know, but you stand and do nothing?! What kind of person are you?
