Riel is no bully! He runs North's Marching band with honor. Many students hate school because they go there to just learn, go home and do the same thing over and over. Why do you think so many people are in band? Because it's fun. If they had a mean,evil teacher, there wouldn't be as many! Riel becomes friends with his students,to teach them about things like these later in life and so they can grow as a person. He has influenced many people's lives. He is a brillient person with enough common sense to not even think about "sexting" someone. As for the forking incident, it happened in 2007, get over it. And how does befriending his students have to do with three ignorant, revenge seeking boys going to his house,putting plastic forks in his yard (which is dumb) including traffic cones, and subscibing him to magazines? It sounds like they are bullying him. Coming to the place where his wife and young child live, to do something so stupid! To call him a bully is very insulting!
