Bullied To Death

So many people are being bullied, creating massive emotional traumas in their lives. I have read of a variety of cases, where children, teens, adults and the elderly, have been targeted and in some instances, ended up dead, as a result of bullying.

Some people do not think bullying is a big deal, dismissing its victims as thin-skinned. However, anything bad enough to create depression, thoughts of suicide, suicide or end in a deadly assault, is a major issue that should not be ignored. Bullying needs to be criminalized by the justice system, in an attempt at clamping down on the problem.
