If I were a betting man, I'd wager a lot on the following: those who defend bullying, or who minimize its effect on the weak, are or were bullies themselves. Those who bully, or who take pleasure in inflicting emotional and/or physical harm on their victims are defective human beings.
Please define "Bullying". Is someone saying, "Your dress looks awful" a bully? Where does one objectively draw the line between what is permissible and impermissible negative commentary? Does the intent matter or is just merely the consequence? These are important questions, and until I have them answered, I err on the side of defending bullying even though it is more opposition to limiting speech in an ambiguous subjective way.
