Punish the Bully

The most used tactic of the devil is to accuse the good people of what the evil people are doing but the good people are not. This method of intimidation to cause frustration, is increasing among organizations and individuals.
 
We need to be aware of these overt and covert tactics in order to remain strong, while not reacting out of emotion.
 
Those who intimidate through manipulation want us to become frustrated to cause us to respond in anger. Their aim is to make us look bad, discrediting us while they act innocent in their covert maneuvering attacks.
 
I have seen in many times in my life, the person who picks, picks and picks at someone, finally the victim can't stand it any longer and becomes angry, after which the perpetrator point their bony finger saying, "see how you are, look at you, you're angry."
 
I have grown weary of the lack of justice I am hearing about in school settings. The bully pick, pick, picks at the victim, the victim attempts to make it stop and when the fight breaks out both the bully and the victim are punished, as though both are guilty. I don't call this justice, it is merely a teacher not wanting to take the time to interview the parties involved and witnesses to come to a knowledge of the truth.
I do not believe that if there is a fight, both parties are at fault. 

Perhaps the fighting is wrong, but the bully was the cause and needs to take the brunt of the punishment. I also believe that children now feel a sense of futility about going to the authorities because often justice is not done.

Isaiah 59:14 "Justice is turned back, And righteousness stands far away; For truth has stumbled in the street, And uprightness cannot enter."

Isaiah 1:17 "Learn to do good; Seek justice, Reprove the ruthless, Defend the orphan, Plead for the widow."
