I disagree with the idea of bullying laws altogether. You can't legislate against the petty rivalries of human nature, especially in regards to children. Life isn't fair. People will talk about you behind your back and say rude things to you or about you no matter how old you are. Get used to it, or get out of the pool.
If the guy had gone to the school board/cops these idiots would have at least been thrown out of school and been stuck on probation and community service.
