By Rick Yencer
MUNCIE, IN - It was something on the minds of local youth workers on Tuesday as a school administrator and youth minister talked about the bullying and violence and what to look for and what to do about it.
The day before, a youth described as an outcast who might have been bullied or upset that someone was dating his ex-girlfriend walked into a Cleveland, Ohio suburb high school and started shooting. A day later three youth were dead with more wounded.
