Why can't individual case / common sense be applied ?

Bullying: in America, when two kids “fight”, even when one kid is totally innocent and only defends himself or even does not throw a punch because he is being pummeled, they BOTH ARE SUSPENDED - Why can’t individual case / common sense be applied ?

Answer #1

Because it is hard to know who started what… It’s a stupid rule, but they have to do something… this way the parents cant complain

Answer #2

That bothers me to - they use the excuse well he could have walked away. That’s not always the case though. Sometimes the bully will hit them even when they are walking away. What do they want the kid to do, lay there and be beaten to death and not move a muscle.
