THANK YOU. We need to call it both to be fair but yes this was assault. And all adults directly and indirectly involved who did NOT take action should be charged with failing to protect a minor. remove their paid leave, and take away their jobs and benefits. You allow kids to be abused and assaulted by their peers under your watch? You have a fucking responsibility to these kids and what a disgrace of an admin to let this all build up. They deserve the fullest and harshest punishments.

Kids are kids and they need more help than punishment. These kids have low emotional IQs. That can be helped and fixed in most cases. They deserve some punishment but these charges seem more like grandstanding than actual solutions, IMO. IMO they are the least responsible party because they are kids.

The school officials should be punished both legally and civilly. Some reports have stated that bullying had gone on for years. If they were aware then their negligence allowed for this. As the adults in charge of where some of this bullying took place they could have stopped some of it.

If the bullies' parents were aware (and if they weren't then it all falls on the school) then they should be charged too. Raise shitty kids and you should be responsible if there was something you could have done to correct their behavior. If someone told me my kid was a bully then we would go hard into therapy, anger management, conflict resolution, and I would monitor their online accounts until I could trust them to act right.

It helps to know your major destinations... Home & office. Beware residences close to transit will cost more. Know that NJT is trying to make bicycles a useful extension to your ride (but not every train is accommodating)

Spent yesterday on a train with a lifelong resident.. he had no clue how to read the departure board at a glance! The rail routes/ map/ schedules and departure boards are color coded.

I have no issue with apartments that are meant to be apartments. I understand that there will always be a segment of the population that benefits more from renting. The issue I have is when so called average people think that they can hoard property and use it for "passive" income. Those landlords do nothing of benefit for anyone.
