Alex
I think that Alex shouldnt get bullied because lots of people have disabilities and there is nothing they can do about it. When people encounter something new they take it as they see it some people might try to help him or they could make fun of it. They can make a harsher punishment for bullies and try to talk to the kids with guests speakers or something. When the bully finds out that the person told on them that can make matters worse but if a teacher just talk to someone about bulling it make the situation better. Adult intervention is most helpful when they are helping make the situation better and helping the victim out.

I feel like they have no reason to tease her just because she's gay it's none of their business. Even though she was getting picked on and made fun of she still went to school and still didnt let the kids get to her. She has her friends to help her out and she is an honor student. One of the main reasons why LGBT teens get teased so much is because they are not like everyone else and they seem gross and odd to people. Bulling happens everywhere and to anyone and most violence comes out of bulling either from the bully or the victim.
Ja'meya
When I heard about Ja'Meya's story i was really shocked and very surprised. I think this means that everyone gets hurt by bulling even if they are an athlete or an honor student. I believe that her decision to bring a gun was because she got tired of all of the bulling and wanted to stop it. I think she should get a less harsh punishment because she wasn't going to kill anyone and she was get bullied alot. Yes it matters that she did not intend to hurt anyone because if she wasnt going to hurt anyone then nothing was going to happen and no one was going to get hurt. We can learn to never turn to violence even if you already tried to get help. Well because of her race they might make a harsher punishment for her i dont know why but they might. When people get bullied it hurts them so bad they turn to violence and someone is going to get hurt either the victim or the bully.
