IN response to Max Nottingham (Letters, July 20) about 176 children tragically committing suicide, half of this number due to bullying, we have all seen on TV how the lion hunts for food and will always pick the weak and most vulnarable.

This is always a tactic used by the evil bully who makes life hell for their victim and achieves some sort of twisted gratifica-tion for making another person’s life unbearable.

Unfortunately, bullying is tolerated and supported in today’s immoral and sick society.
