    That's horrible. What kind of jackass does that to someone? Stomping someone's head is a horrid thing to do, but it's so much worse when you know it doesn't even take that much to kill someone due to his medical condition. It's just sickening.

  • Kids are scary these days..:(

    one of my best friends got the same thing done to him out of nowhere at a 7-11 when a guy we both knew attacked and curb stomped him because he was on acid and thought he was laughing at him.

    that was 20 years ago. nothing is worse. people are the same. it's just more widely reported now.

    This made me cry, so sad! As someone who has epilepsy I think this is f-ing disgusting! Watching him have that first seizure was so sad because I know just how scary it is. When I had my first Grand Mal (one where you are one the ground shaking) I honestly thought I was dying because my legs went on me and and I couldn't talk even though my Mum was begging me to tell her what was wrong. :(
    Absolutely disgraceful that this poor kid has to be scared in his own town, these kids should pay big consequences!

    One of my greatest fears is that I will get a call one day saying my child is a bully.

    I won't watch this. As a parent of a child with Down syndrome, these sorts of threads get me pissed off. What message exactly are you trying to relay by posting it, Godfather? Really, what motivates someone to post awful things like this? You CLEARLY do not have children when you post this. Because parents fear something like this happening to their child straight down to the bottom of their souls. We don't need to watch any more bullies hurting our kids, especially the kids who are most at risk of being bullied. :x :x

    Give her a break, Cincy...I know she's where she's at and she kinda has a point...I would say this, base on Gf's response to the the "oppression" post, it could be said he has agenda for posting this....

    Sorry you're upset, but I do think the anger is a bit misplaced... whatever GF's intentions are, it is very often terrible news stories like this that actually encourage people to take action against bullying on local levels. So I don't think it's bad to share stories like this... they tend to raise awareness of the issue of bullying and other issues such as discrimination.

    godfather reported to us the news he found alarming, disgusting and stuff. godfather is a father and a caring one from what i have read on his posts.

    your message here states that parents should not post stories filled with horrorific events filled with children and children with disabilities.

    godfather did nothing wrong when opening this thread.

    That's nice to defend Godfather, but I asked him his motives for posting it and got no answer. Those who speak for him can save your typing, because I stand by my opinion.

    Only sick people enjoy viewing other people's tragedies, it is NOT awareness. It is voyeurism. No one needs to view a tragic beating to understand the underlying problems we have with bullying. Awareness is talking about the issue and solutions, not viewing horrible situations. Are you people for real? There's a movie that's coming out about bullying if you really want to know, and because of the graphic language, it's been labeled unrated or R, which defeats the purpose of raising awareness among kids. What the movie is not, is a bunch of scenes of various bullying situations, because we all know what a bullying situation entails. It actually is about how those bullied are feeling.

    If Godfather gave one damn about how an epileptic person feels about being bullied, he wouldn't have posted it. This is about viewing a train wreck and nothing else. I have seen so many threads over the years posted on these forums with videos of someone's personal tragedies for all to see and share and exploit. There is something deeply wrong with the human psyche to enjoy watching someone else's personal Hell. I've been there, and refuse to take part in any of this other than to throw it back that it is deeply deranged and wrong to do it.

    The only thing to learn from this video is how to bully another person. There is no awareness, it just glorifies bullying, and bullying those who have little or no defenses. It's wrong, wrong, WRONG. :evil:
