Others use psychological control or verbal insults (taunting, teasing, etc.) to demean and torment their targets. For example, people in popular groups or “cliques” often harass people they categorize as unusual by excluding them or spread- ing rumors about them. Bullying often goes unreported in schools, mak- ing it difficult for school officials to help when a problem arises. 34% of the students who took the survey agreed that they “…feel uncomfortable reporting bullying and harassment.” 21% even agreed to the statement that “at my school, there are no consequences for bullying.” This grave misunderstanding could cost us something very dear, our sense of community. Which seems to have been violated by these bullies and must be stopped. There are consequences at North Thurston High School to address bullying and they are explained in the “North Thurston Public Schools Student Rights and Re- sponsibilities Handbook,” the disciplinary actions against bullying are as follows: emergency removal and short- term suspension, long-term suspension/expulsion, and emergency expulsion. All consequences are dependent on the severity of the actions made by both parties involved. Earn FREE college credits while in high school!

  • Pp.147-160 Jøn Contemporary Soldier Stories
    Australian Folklore 26, 2011 147 Contemporary Soldier Stories and the Game of Propaganda: The War on Terror, and some Folkloric Reflections on the War in Iraq A. Asbjørn Jøn ABSTRACT: This paper explores the world of confusion of identity, purpose and hurt associated with the various ‘western’ forces involved in this Allied campaign against ‘Terror’, with special reference to the war in Iraq. The treatment is associated with propaganda, song, trauma, Australian perceptions of, and attitudes to, all of this conflict. Song, WikiLeaks, etc. are explored, and the whole is linked to the earlier Australian culture of the folk-rock track, ’I was Only Nineteen’. ‘A hero of war Is that what they see Just medals and scars So damn proud of me And I brought home that flag Now it gathers dust But it’s the flag that I love It’s the only flag I trust.’1 The America-led War on Terror haunts a great number of men and women across the globe—from those who have been the subjects of enquiries and detention, to the whanau (the bereft women) of those who have been lost in conflict, and so, too, to the very soldiers themselves who have participated in it. Coupled with the popular culture accounts, we have seen countless news reports, and narrative ‘true story’ books, about the tales of individual soldiers who served within the conflict.2 One overwhelming similarity runs through most of these accounts—a deep pain and sorrow about the events of the ‘War on Terror’ and the emotional and physical scars that it has left on not only individuals, but on proximate and other societies as a whole—as shown in Andrew 1 Rise Against, ‘Hero of War’, on Appeal to Reason (DGC/Interscope, 2008: Audio CD), Track 10.

Rise Against’s second tour stop in Long Beach, however, holds special significance for the group as they have the honor and privilege to share the stage with The Descendents. While The Descendents may not mean much to the average fan, for Principe and the rest of Rise Against, it really is something special. “The Decendents are the sole reason I learned how to play bass … they are truly one of my main influences,” Principe says. The April 7 show at the Long Beach Arena will be the first time in 14 years the Descendents have performed in Southern California. With Endgame only being out for a handful of weeks now, it has already garnered airplay with the group’s first single, “Help Is On The Way.” Lead singer and co-founder Tim McIlrath composed the song about his experiences in New Orleans while on a tour break, and speaks about the massive amounts of devastation Agents for Change Rise AgAinst’s sixth Album looks to ReinfoRce the Band’s messAge foR hope In speaking to Joe Principe, co-founder it fresh with every record and I think we he witnessed in the wake of Hurricane and bass player of Rise Against, one thing succeeded with that.” Katrina.

According to Ryan Sullivan, the GSA president, "the chalking done by the GSA [was] to make people feel safe ... ". Shortly after the chalking was done, however, quotes from Leviticus appeared underneath chalking done by the GSA. [n places such as Olin and the main gates, the phrase "You shall not lie with a male and with a female." - Leviticus 18:22 was chalked next to the GSA writings.

The hardcore music scene represents a radical departure from contemporary society. Rejecting the materialism, militarism, and hedonism of the mainstream music scene—and, by extension, modern culture—hardcore music presents an alternative lifestyle rooted in solidarity, equality, and liberty. Indeed, the culture of the hardcore scene approaches a transitive, nomadic model of an anarchistic commune built on resistance as a way of life.
