So why exactly is bullying exceptable behavior? Dismissing it as simply a "fact of life" shouldn't be an excuse.

It's not because you're fat, it's because you're a retard. All you need to do - Is stop being retarded, retardface.

Wasn't sure if this was off-topic or political.

I'm in High school right now and it kind of freaks me out, because shit we all made fun of people in High school and I really don't feel like getting capped from some estranged kid who couldn't stick up for him/herself.

Besides what lame reason is "I got bullied." to go around and shoot up your school? Grow some balls, work out, get tough, don't take shit, you don't need to go killing people becuase you had your feelings hurt.[/quote:508de]

Yeah people should be forced to work out just to stand up against morons like you who wont leave them alone. Why should they have to work out? What if they don't want to? How about you just leave them alone? I don't know if I'm a nerd or not (I try not to be) but it's pretty gay when I see a bunch of retard jocks pick on a kid who's trying to get down the hall.

The more dumb you are, the more you tend to use your physical attributes.

I gotta agree with you there. The USA Today had an article (it took up the whole page) about a week or two ago about the effect that Instant Messaging bullies and internet bullies in general are having on kids these days. Apparently getting taunted in chat rooms has a stronger psychological effect than a school yard bully. It is really screwing with kids - especially younger ones such as Middle Schoolers. I guess the kids feel free to really let loose on people because they aren't face to face. I still put it back on the parents though. When did we stop teaching right from wrong?

I should have been a little clearer.

I don't pick on people. I never said you had to work out; I only did it to help my situation out. I used to get picked on in Middle School because I had acne, so instead of being a coward and standing down I stood up and told them to fuck off and leave me alone. Low and behold it worked out for the best and I don't deal with any of that anymore. Besides I'm not a jock, and I'm only suggesting that because it worked for me. Maybe you enjoy being ridiculed for being whatever I didn't so I did something about it and it didn't involve killing anyone.

So let me just make it a little bit clearer, my choice of words about how everyone pokes fun might have confused some of you. I'm not a bully, I don't throw people into lockers, I don't make fun of people with glasses (I have glasses rock: ), I don't tease overweight kids, etc, etc.

I'm simply suggesting that instead of killing people or killing yourself stick up for yourself in a non-death involving way. That way you make the bully look like a shmuck and you turn into some uber defender of the average Joe or whatever.

So stop calling me a bully, because I’m not. I’m a lot more sophisticated then to pick on someone because they are different from me.

PS: As a side note the kid in this story called himself a "Native Nazi" as in Native American + Nazi.

No damnit you're all missing everything.

Killing is fine, just don't be a pussy and do it all cold blood. It's really bad publicity.
