The Leading word seems to be the one, who has the house, that the other boy fucked with.

How do the boys bully and intimidate Simpson verbally and physically?
They keep saying what he is doing wrong, bullying him with his appearance. Everything he does is wrong for them.
Simpson’s reactions: he is terrified, put up a resistance, is frightened out of his wits, gives up, is a sissy? Which words are best and why
Gives up is the best word because gives up is a strong word to use and often people do not give up but want to fight back.
What is the purpose of the “kangaroo court”? Establish the different roles of the three boys. Show how the boys try to “act the part”. Where have the boys learned about the methods and language of such a court? They must have maybe learned it from seeing the war back then, how they treat other humans badly.
