Discrimination would also become rather large as well if werewolves (if there was such a being) made themselves known. Imagine putting that on your form to vote. Or going to school where everyone else besides you are all human. You'd become an outcast!
I think anyone taunting a werewolf would have to be lacking a great deal of common sense. Essepcially when one thinkings back to their previous 'expierance' with Werewolves (Monster Movies

) where the Werewolves do things like ripping people in two and taking a bullet to the head and living.
So the uneducated in the true facts would stay well away and fear them. Only the truely stupid, brave, or nuts of the uneducated would dare taunt one, never know who has a short enough temper to shift and smash your skull in.
Even if they knew the WW was like the ones we've discussed here (Ones that are killable by normal means, not intrinsically violent beasts, etc.) they'd still probablly fear and stay away from the WW. Gestalt form would give one enough of a edge to beat most other kids into the dust, and the Wolf form perhaps moreso.

If werewolves became known to the world some how, there would defintly be a lot of hate and fear towards them. I dont think people would let them vote, cause they would be considered filthy, dangerous animals, not citizens of the USA. It would be a lot like when african americans had no rights most likely. Seperate water fountains and bathrooms so nobody gets the WW virus. Laws made so no werewolf can shift in public or be in public places in wolf or gestalt form. Werewolf hate groups would form as well. Government would still have some ww's 'vanish', and have them studied in labs. The list goes on

I did a short story about a kid who accidently got bitten during a playground fight. As a result, there was a push to put werewolf children into seperate schools, thus marking the beginning of segregation.

I find those thoughts quite weird. If werewolves were discovered they would be 'exterminate' and kept under the government, going to school? Ya got ta be kidin'

Well, some people might still think of werewolves as a species of human and therefore argue that they need to go to school. This of course would probably happen after years and years of the werewolves being treated like rotten animals or something to the extent of African Americans before the Civil War.

Werewolves may go to school, but they don't go to summer camp!!!

It is human behavior to segregate the things/peaople that are different then them, unless of course they think rationaly and dont care about skin color or species. Not to mention if the Catholic Church would go nuts, they would all go something like "how could you live with yourselves god made you in his own image blah blah blah" There would be werewolf consentration camps everywhere if the secret was exposed, but over time humanity like it always has would grow to except ww, or they would be out numbered and be hunted to extinction. Don't know how that fits together but now for a lighter mood. Werewolf president in 2012 WOOOHOOOO! YA! Sorry that will never happen again

Well I'd expect that if they found a werewolf they would not allow it to spread the virus or have a child. Werewolves still undiscovered would have to really keep themselves secret, if they ever learned that their friend had been taken anyway.
