I know your going to say put this in the "video" section, it's not the video thats the focus. I want to know what your views on bullying.

As seen on this clip (Im sure all of you have seen the actual video) this the truth of how bullying can affect someone.


I personaly hate bullys, i've had many fights in school from standing upto a bully (they wasn't bullying me, but someone else) I belive it's wrong and destroys lifes.


Whats your views?

Bullies are fucking losers who deserve to die. Wannabe thugs thinking they're big and shit when in real life, they're all puny and crap.

With all the weapons now it's getting harder to be honest, Even when you're standing up for yourself, Self defense, A bully can just take a knife out of his pocket when he's losing and stab you.

Life is hard.

Most bullying is caused by the victims themselves. Always do what you can to never let it escalate to that "Bullying / Low self esteem" level.

I was a victim throughout some of elementary school.. it can really be scary if you weren't raised to stand up for yourself as a primary reaction. Looking back I'd do things a lot differently if I had the same mindset as I do now. I don't the petty things bother me anymore or let people push me around. Bullying is an endless vicious cycle, when one person is bullied they'll often want vengeance, and picking on the next weakest person is the easiest way to do it. I'm thankful I didn't stoop down to that level, but I wouldn't doubt if there were points where I might have bullied someone without realising it.

Never really seen serious bullying happen.
It's rly not that hard to take a stand against them tho

Depends where you live. Standing up against certain bullies now in certain parts could be the end of your life - literally - as they just get their buddies and/or start whipping out weapons.

I've been 'bullied' in my first two years of elementary though on a very minor scale but have fought bullies and stuck up to them ever since. I've helped countless people in such situations but here in Canada it isn't as much of a big issue and widespread as it seems to be in other places but when it happens it can get pretty serious.

My little brother (who's way bigger than my physically) managed to piss off some bully who wasn't that tough but knew a ton of the older 'gangsters' in pretty much every area around where I lived including mine over... surprise.. a runescape account. Don't really know how or why it happened but he confronted my brother with a knife one day but he saw him coming and called me and I came with some buddies and it was dealt with.

Sometimes people feel that if they told somebody it might escalate. Most of the times I've told teachers about being bullied it has gotten worse.

Thats because the way bullying is handled the teachers don't give a shit.

There needs to be a reform in the way it's handled.
If it escalates just tell the cops, simple as that.

Honestly, if anyone bullied me I'd just get them in an arm lock and pin them on the floor.

Most of the time people who bully others have issues of their own that they are trying to cover up by being a bully. Be it self insecurities or problems at home, just to name a couple. I don't condone it, and I was actually a victim of bullying in school until I stood up for myself. Most bullies are actually pussies and will back down when confronted. They bully just to try and make themselves feel better. It's quite disgusting.
