What kind of group home allows punishment for taking a stand?

Taking a stand is fine. What's bad is having a fist fight for no reason. 

First thing I was given a death threat by a guy living in the group home I lived in, then I took a stand or tried to. Next thing I know, I'm in my room and got an X on my behavior chart for unreasonably fighting. Bullying is also a thing that warrants an x and anti-bullying should be the opposite where it warrants a checkmark. We do not allow societies like this to exist where heroes are villiains and brave people as cowards. Heroes are welcome in Canada, brave people too. Hate crimes are illegal in my country. I am therefore abiding by the law that completed it's provisionary transactions by respecting the person's name. I am merely upholding that law and I get punished for it for being Canadian. Also glad this was a bygone day of the past and something I do not wish repeated. Now the past has come back. Them. They ruined my life. My attitude on anti-bullying is still good. 

I will thank them to learn from the past so the kid who i next meet also a child with a disability never to have to go through the same things I went through. Consequences for not imposing anti-bullying policies is worse than severe. Agency visits? Inspection time? Maybe perhaps the interested thoughts of the state who does not agree with the principles of staff in an indie group home who would be more than pleased to shut them down with cause. I'm only worried about the present issues.

    Pretty much every group home where people are there to either be mentored as children or rehabilitated to where they can someday leave and live in the outside world. But they made a big mistake here if you weren't told that the appropriate response to a death threat isn't to pick a fight, it's to report that threat to the management and let them handle it. If they're not teaching you how to behave better I don't even know why you're there.

    "I get punished for being a Canadian."  No, you were punished for breaking the rules.
