Yes, it is true that some are bullies because they feel bad about themselves. It is not all bullies since some have unwarranted positive feelings about themselves. Both self-hate and excessive pride can be causes. Anyway, some bullies are bullied or abused themselves. Some want attention but don't know of any worthwhile means to get it, so if they can't gain fame, then they figure they will settle for infamy. Some just want to be respected, but since they can't figure out how to get respect, they will settle for fear.

There is no point at all. Bullies are people who are usually not confident in themselves and they put others down to make themselves feel superior. Or sometimes they are experiencing personal issues and need a way to vent their anger and frustration and so they bully others to get rid of the feelings they hold inside. There is no excuse for how they make others feel. The bullies should, rather than be bullies, ask for help rather than take their anger out on the people more vulnerable.
