I have always said that TV is the world's biggest high school. Every type you ever met in high school is right here.

The bullies are among us. They always have been. Only now, they are not bothering to try to hide what they are. They feel like they have been given license to crawl out from under their rocks and spew their venom all over the place.

And because TV is so immense, those prone to vile behavior feel like they can behave at their worst and remain relatively anonymous.

It is a good thing I was not at your pool to hear some hateful bully buffoon make fun of someone who is disabled. I do not think I could have kept my mouth shut.

Yep!
