What would you say is the problem with the kids who bullied an older bus monitor?

Asked by DominicX (28808points) June 20th, 2012

An infamous viral video depicts several teenagers berating and harassing an older woman who was serving as a bus monitor on a regular school bus route in Greece, NY.

The video is disturbing to say the least: http://www.nydailynews.com/news/national/video-school-bus-monitor-bullied-sparks-investigation-article-1.1099607

Now, before people get in up in arms with “we need to spank our kids again!”, what exactly is the real issue here? Are these kids an anomaly or is this part of a widespread trend? Is more corporal punishment the answer or is it something deeper?

Just wondering.
