California wants the online bullying to stop

California's state legislators are tired of cyberbullying. Of their constituents' children, that is, not them. A bill that will suspend, or even expel, students from school for bullying online or via text message is now awaiting approval by the State Assembly. After that, it will need the Governator's signature. The bill is reminiscent of Kentucky's proposal to ban anonymous comments. No one likes a bully, but we're kind of hoping Schwarzenegger declares this bill too girly-man to be made into law. [News.com]
