If he had, I was going to lure him into the alley beside the theater with the promise of a fight. Then I was going to shoot him. Later that night, when I had calmed down, I realized what could have happened, and I got rid of the gun. That kid is lucky to be alive. If he had died, he would have had himself to blame as much as me.
Most people find a way to deal with it.
Some just can't. If the teachers and administrators do a better job of keeping an eye on what is happening in their schools, the killings will stop. If we treat predatory aggressors in our schools like we do drug users, the menace will be removed and the killings will stop. If school systems take the time and effort to be sure the potential targets of bullies are identified and given help, the killings will stop. If parents, teachers, coaches, students and society in general will stop creating an environment where being the tough guy is absolutely no social advantage, the killings will stop.
