    Al Franken tried to ban bullying of gay students. Republicans just rejected the measure. http://bit.ly/1O4F4yV pic.twitter.com/d3zbhNue6W

        @MotherJones @DesertBeacon if you remove targets for weaker minds to bully, the GOP loses it's reason to exist.

        @MotherJones Perhaps it would have passed if @alfranken had added a rider to ban bullying of Republicans.

        @MotherJones He tried to ban bullying? How can you ban bad teenage behavior? Might as well mandate good parenting, or require happy smiles.

        @whycherrywhy @MotherJones "schools are already required to prevent discrimination due to sex, religion, or race". Read the article.
