Bullies!

I read the news that recently a video caused an uproar among Facebook users and netizens.  No, we are not talking about 'that' video.  It was said that a student uploaded a video taken in his/her school that shows a female student was bullied. 

I went to search for the said video in Youtube just to see if it's as simple as the news reported.  And what I saw is way beyond my imagination.  The victim was crying and the people around her were laughing and strangled her with a neck tie, even cut her hair!  She was humiliated, laughed at. =(

Few questions came in my mind after I watched it.

1 - What has she done to deserve this?

2 - Are these bullies are taught to bully others?  If any of you bully answer me this:  Did your parents taught you to disrespect others, to humiliate them as you please?

3 - Where are the other classmates?  Were they present at the time the incident happened, if they did, were they just looking helplessly or join in the taunting party?

4 - The person who recorded the incident...please put yourself in her shoes - you were bullied, humiliated and she's the one who recorded it.

5 - What happened to teens nowadays?  

Bullies are people who feel superior taking on the people who are weaker than themselves.  In other word, COWARDS. If you love bully the weak so much, why don't you 'level up' yourself and try bully someone with your own size or bigger???  

Just watching at the video really makes me angry.  To the authorities, I read that a police report has been made by this girl's father.  I read that the students had 'apologized' too.  'Sorry' only after you been exposed is not enough.  Because if no one highlights this, you will roam in the streets happily and bullying others the same.  I hope you all get what you deserved for bullying her, and it's a warning to yourself in future and all the bullies out there, that bullying also a crime.  If you feel happy by destroying someone's life and strip them off their dignity, try imagine if you been treated the same.

The next time you wanted to raise your hand, or open your mouth to get at someone, think of the consequences.  Because sometimes, 'sorry' might be just too late.

- The bullies have since been suspended from school for 2 weeks and counselling.  Fair?  No...I personally think suspension won't do any good.  They should been given much more stern disciplinary action.
