So you understand its a psychological disorder.
Yet still you want to punish it as a crime instead of a medical condition.
I wonder how many people would be cured of depression if we sent them to prison. How many manic depressives that just are not responding to medication would find relief in a little head bashing....? Leeches, electroshock, House of Bedlam - lets go backward to go forward.
Gee I have to wonder if this would work for any medical problem... lets beat the cancer out of people, lets sue their schools because they got the cancer....
Sounds ridiculous?
Bullies are mostly a product of environmental factors and they do not have the coping mechanisms to deal with problems in a rational manner. They are not going to learn how to 'cope' if you beat them up, if you imprison them (send them to a place full of other insane people expecting the insane to rehabilitate the insane - it doesn't work) - is as insane.
