One rule for one, one rule for another
At school, in year 9, I remember one of the girls in my English class gobbing at the teacher, all because the teacher made her sit at the front because she was talking to her mates. This girl was making herself look ridiculous in front of the whole class. She then started kicking the tables and the chairs, and was intensely sulking, accusing the teacher of ''isolating'' her. Then when the teacher told her to stand outside the classroom, the girl slammed the door REALLY hard, and then walked off. And nobody really took any notice. Nobody bullied her, or stopped wanting to be her friend, or got freaked out by her behaviour. At lunchtime I saw she was hanging out with a crowd who was in the same English class. But - if I had exactly behaved like that, everybody would have laughed at me, or got annoyed with me, or whatever. I bet they would.
Also, I always had this girl in my class who was big for her age, and was always looking down on me only, and nobody else. She wasn't a bully exactly, but she was never nice to me (only when we were really little because kids that small don't act bitchy). But if somebody done something to annoy her, she would say, ''stop it'', but still smile in a friendly way. But I knew that if I ever annoyed her, just by having a joke, she would yell at me angrily or say, ''want a fight, huh?! !!'' But she would not act this way with anybody else. Also once the teacher all chose our partners for us, and I got put with this girl, and I saw her huffing to herself and looking very fed up at the idea of having to be with me. Then once I actually retaliated when she was being horrible to me, by pushing her. She then ran and told on me.
All through school it was the same. It doesn't matter if another person done something, but if I done it, they didn't like it.

Some guy smacked me in the face for saying something about his mother after he smashed my head against the wall so I tackeld him and began choking him they treated me like I was a criminal. He instigated the whole attack by smashing my head into the wall and striking me in front of the class and the teacher no one did anything so I had a violent meltdown because of it and tackled him when he was walking back to his desk. I figured if I choked him into a choking fit I could stomp on him while he was down. I know I was wrong for choking him but this was done out of rage due to the teacher pretending like it did not happen and I was sick of the treatment I was getting. When I struck back the teacher ran out of the room and called the office from another room. One of my friends pulled me off of him. When you treat some like their are a sub-human long enough don't be suprised when they snap and go for your throat.
I've also snapped twice and hit people who had gone too far. I've gotten away with it both times, but the looks were priceless. The second time one of the other really annoying kids actually said "I can't believe you did that," which was pretty funny now that I look back on it. Weirdly, it's the only thing that's ever really helped for me. Teachers didn't really do anything about it, parents (of the bullies) would deny it. Everyone always teaches you that you shouldn't hit back and that you should take it in your stride, but hitting back is the only thing that really seems to work.
