...Bullying has been a widespread headache in our school. Most of the riots and gang war started from bullying. Most of the schools bullying were just ignored, they even don’t take actions of the damages cause by bullying. I remembered from a parent in the school of my son where she shared what happened to her son inside the school. Her son was bullied from the school paper. Imagine his own pictures were the source of laugh in the whole campus and he is in high school level. Just imagine how embarrassing it is for him. For a month or two her son suffered from trauma and he stop for a while but came back to school after a long and several talk. Aside from that I also heard lots of news about bullying inside the school. Just the same the school did not do anything about it. I am really surprised that the school head and administration did not do anything about it. Anyway maybe because the school administration where not capable enough to handle such things and maybe they don’t have enough knowledge about it. Now that the law about Anti – bullying where passed, I guess school administration and heads can now be guided on what to do if such things occurs inside the school campuses. They just can’t ignore such things especially if it is the main reason why the students were having problem. I am glad that this law has been passed on; I hope and prayed that it will be used according to its purpose. Then served rightfully to those who deserved to be punished according to the law. Also...

...In 1999, two students at Columbine High School with semi-automatic weapons stormed around the campus, murdering 12 students. Eight years later, the same nightmare is relived when Seung-Hui Cho from Virginia Technical Institute shoots and kills 27 students and five faculty members. The federal government responds to these massacres by passing laws which do not prevent teenagers from acquiring deadly weapons. I believe the federal government should take more action concerning violence in schools. Some may argue that violence in schools is unpreventable; that bullying and school shootings will always be inevitable even if the government takes more action. Although this is true, the government can reduce the number of violent occurrences by passing stricter laws and enforcing them. It is the government’s responsibility to make sure that students are in check. By in check, I mean that government should strengthen school security, require schools to implement anti-bully laws just like the one in Arkansas, except on a federal level. By doing this, students would feel safer and more comfortable going to school and at school, and there would also be less school shootings like the ones at Columbine and Virginia Tech. Others may also argue that the federal government has taken steps to reduce juvenile violence in schools. On January 5, 2008, George Bush signed a law that forbids those declared convicts or mentally ill from purchasing guns. S.M. Smith, judge of the Arkansas judicial court...

If not monitored, social networking can be dangerous. 3) Angle: Cyber bullies, pedophiles and scam artists are making social networking dangerous. As a society we have allowed interactions amongst one another to resort to social media without verifying whom sits behind the other device you communicate with. B. Context 1) Recently there has been an increase in cyber bullying leading to increase suicides among adolescents as social media has become an avenue to emotionally assault one another. 2) Cyber bullying is a danger that is becoming more popular with the use of social networking. It can come from friends and acquaintances or it may be anonymous through someone using a false identity.” Anyone can be a cyber-bully. Cyber bullying can, however, be even more vicious than you think it seems. C. Audience 1) My primary audience will be parents of young adults or teenagers whom as reported seem to spend most of their time using social media and networking sites. 2) My secondary audience is to business professionals whom allow or disallow social networking within their business and staff. 3) My audience will definitely agree with my stance as this is becoming a huge issue amongst personal privacy and use of social media to interact with one another.

...1. An overview on cyberbullying in higher education. This article defines bullying as “repeated intimidation, over time, of a physical, verbal, and Psychological nature of a less powerful person by a more powerful person or group of persons”. To date, 18 states have laws to address cyberbullying, compared with 49 states, all except Montana, having laws to address bullying (Hinduja & Patchin, 2013). State laws primarily focus on cyberbullying that occurs on K-12 campuses, and each state requires school district to have policies against bullying. In a K-12 environment, cyberbullying that occurs off campus has been handed off to the parents. The expansion and use of communications technology, such as mobile and tablet devices, has allowed the bully to transform and follow his or her victim almost anywhere, at any time. Short story/example: White female student at Duke University. On May 2010, this female student developed a fake senior thesis as a PowerPoint presentation that described her sexual exploits with 13 male students at Duke University. In her fake thesis, she utilized each student’s real name and picture which, in some cases, showed the male student in his university athletic uniform. The female student emailed the fake thesis to three people she considered close friends, and the thesis was forwarded to others undoubtedly due to the salacious nature of the thesis (Seelye & Roberts, 2010). Eventually, the thesis ended up in the public domain on the blog...

...Studies indicate that cyber-bullying incidents have quadrupled in past five years (Ross). Cyber-bullying has become a huge issue recently. Every time you turn on the news there is another bullying, or a suicide related to bullying, incident being reported. “Love is louder” has been a common phrase among celebrities and influential figures lately. They are trying to send out a message to their followers saying that bullying is not right and should not be tolerated. The expansion of communication technologies is widening the way bully’s can torture their victims. The fact of the matter is, technology is not going anywhere, so we need to figure out a way to put an end to cyber-bullies. Cyber-bullying is becoming a major problem and we all need to do our parts in figuring out what can be done to stop cyber-bullies in their tracks. Cyber-bullies will continue to be a threat to today’s youth until we take preventative measures against them. Before putting a stop to cyber-bullying we must understand why and how a cyber-bully works. After researching and analyzing informative articles on the topic, this research paper aims to inform and answer questions such as: what a cyber-bully is, how they work, whom they target, and how to stop them. By understanding how a cyber-bully works we will be able to better protect youth populations as technology grows. Approximately half of U.S. students are impacted by traditional bullying each school day (Ross). Cyber-bullying is technology powered and...

...Hazing Hazing is a highly dangerous activity that in some cases has resulted in death. Hazing involves various activities or rituals which are expected of someone desiring to join a group. Hazing differs from bullying in that bullying attempts to isolate someone from a group. Hazing activities or rituals are designed to be degrading and dehumanizing and can induce psychological, emotional or physical harm, regardless of a person's willingness to participate (Hazing Defined). Hazing is an extremely dangerous form of harassment and intimidation. Hazing is done to an individual as a way of initiating a person into a group or organization. Since 1965, there have been over one hundred people who have been killed or died in the United States due to hazing activities on college campuses in connection with fraternities and sororities alone (Hazing.hanknuwer.com). The actual number of fatalities due to hazing is probably much higher when other groups and organizations such as social groups, high schools, sports teams, military units, the work place and gangs, amongst others, are considered as well. Currently, there is no official U.S. government organization that officially tracks the number of fatalities due to hazing (Hazing.hankunwer.com). Further, there are forty four states that have laws against hazing, but they are often not enforced. The majority of hazing deaths occur because the activity or ritual is excessive and participants become over zealous. Further, a participant's...

...School Safety has been a long standing problem in the United States and each year it doesn’t seem to get any better. In recent years there have been an increase in homicide and suicide rates among children in the United States, with about 242 homicides and 43 suicides from ages 5 to 19 year olds. There is also the problem with the increase of illicit drugs onto school campuses, in 1991 among the different grade levels in high school the drug use has tremendously increased in a span of 10 years. With freshman being the lowest, their drug use increased from 11 percent to 17 percent in 2001, Sophomores 21 percent to 34 percent, and Seniors grew from 29 percent up to 41 percent of students using illicit drugs on campuses in the United States....

...Bullying is a Crime If the saying, “if sticks and stones will break my bones, but words will never hurt me” was ever true, it sure isn't true today. Bullying in and out of schools is getting out of control. People are starting to worry if the suicide rate is increasing due to bullying. Children are not the only ones being bullied today; adults are also victims in the bullying epidemic. Statistics have shown that one third of teens are bullied at school and 4 percent also report that they were also victims of cyber bullying (Tangen and Campbell). Parents and teachers should take a stand against bullying to become a part in preventing it. Parents and teachers need to be a part of the solution, not the problem. Victims of bullying are caused much damage and some are scarred for life. Bullying should not be tolerated because it can cause emotional, physical, or social damage to a victim, which can lead to dangerous consequences. What we don’t realize is that there are limited laws and/or policies in place that stop bullying from happening. Legislation needs to be updated or changed to accommodate to new bullying tactics such as cyber bullying and the consequences need to be more severe to stop bullying from happening ever again. Bullying is widespread and perhaps the most underreported safety problem on American school campuses. Contrary to popular belief, bullying occurs more often during school hours than on the way to and from school. But what is bullying? To me bullying...

...Should There Be Specific Anti-Gay Bully Polices in Schools First let’s be clear about definitions concerning this essay. Bully: One who is habitually cruel to smaller or weaker people (The American Heritage Dictionary 2007). An aggressive person who intimidates or mistreats weaker people, (Encarta dictionary, 2012). Bullying: The process of intimidating or mistreating somebody weaker or in a more vulnerable situation (Encarta dictionary, 2012). Bullying for this paper: Any act of harassment, intimidation, whether physical, verbal or telecommunicated (cyber/text) that makes a person feel demeaned, belittled, fearful, or endangered. Since doing this research I find that each article defines bullying in a different way. I believe that we need to have a definitive explanation of what we consider bullying on the whole. Although every definition centers on the idea that someone is being mistreated in some way by another person. Why is it surprising that we have children lashing out to the children that have bullied them today when this is what Americans have done since this country began? The Europeans came to this country and started to take over the land. The Native Americans very rarely killed one another, they simply counted coup. As the Europeans continued to move away from the east coast they decided that the way the Native Americans were living was barbaric and they needed to be civilized and Christianized. When the Native Americans refused to conform, the...
