Having been on both ends of the stick, in my experience, people bully as a result of their own environment, being beaten on and made to feel like you are nothing every day can result in you causing others to feel that way to make yourself feel better. It's the only way you know how when you have pretty much no confidence in yourself at all, and others have shown you how they do it.
I was bullied intensively during highschool by the larger kids, and would lash out at the other socially awkward kids. It was a cycle that ****ed with me as I realised that I was doing the exact same thing that I despised people doing to me and I'm normally not that sort of person. I tried to be better and make peace with the people I'd hurt, it didn't stop what I was getting dealt, but it was a mind clearing experience at least. I'm still abit annoyed that I let myself buy into that ****e but what's done is done and all someone can do now is just learn from it and move on.
It's not just a deal of "Oh the bully is a nasty person" there is so much else that can cause someone to go down that path.
Even a person from a well off family might have some issues of their own that cause them to lash out at others.
Also, fighting back doesn't work. You might beat the bully once but they'll just come back with friends the next day. I've tried it. They just came back again for round two, with others. And you'll just get your **** ruined again and again.
Best thing to do is ignore them, I know it's difficult and they might be carrying on like a bunch of demented apes but if they don't get a rise out of you then they'll just bugger off and throw their feces at someone else.
Edit: that's the schoolyard though. The ones who are adults and still engage in bullying are just dirtbags.
If you've ever hurt someone to make yourself feel better it can go two ways, you can feel really crap for doing it, or you can get a high from it. The people who get high off it are grade A retards.
