I'm glad you mentioned the letter from Cho's family. I didn't hear about that but I always considered them victims of this tragedy as well, albeit in a different way. During the constant media coverage it was mentioned how this family was hard working and trying to put their kids through college. I looked at it totally different than the Columbine kids who had things in plain sight for their parents to see, only for it to be ignored.
As for bullying, its even worse now with cyber-bullying and there are articles relatively frequent articles about suicides due to the constant barrage on some of these kids. I'm proud of you Thorgs for doing what you can to stem the tide. I do think that some adults are guilty of it but rationalize it (cheerleading anyone) and that others are just to busy to notice it happening around them.
