A classmate of mine committed suicide today because of bullying - General

[QUOTE=MaverickIB;28770101]Where in that post do I say "Only pussies get depressed." I basically said only pussies get suicidal. Depressed =/= suicidal. You're a smart fellow.[/QUOTE] That's still dumb, suicide looks stupid when you aren't several depressed but your mind changes will illnesses, some people will do whatever it takes to get rid of their unhappiness. Doing whatever it takes doesn't sound like a pussy to me. I don't condone nor condemn suicide.

[QUOTE=papu2;28770543]Talk for yourself, Want me to point out a good tree where you can end all the suffering you're going through?[/QUOTE] No I'm not looking to end my life. I simply mean that people don't look at people who have it worse than them and then become happy for what they have. I'm truly glad that I live in such an amazing country in such an amazing family, but I can't feel it.

[QUOTE=MaverickIB;28769299]Exactly. He didn't know how to defeat his cancer. It ended up killing him. However, he kept fighting through it and his depression because he was strong willed and smart. Chemicals in the brain can influence your decisions, but in the end, you must be the one to make them.[/QUOTE] How exactly does one even make a decision. Why are humans (or other animals) the only thing in the entire universe than can conjure up stuff from nothing. Free will is an illusion.

You've not experienced any extremely violent situations. You're not deformed. You're not living in a shithole. You won the sperm race. You're actually alive. I would see most of us as lottery winners, If this isn't enough for you then you should probably do something about it, Or realize that you're prety selfish and needy which really begs for the question what is enough? Now about suicide, Considering you're a lottery winner, why do you want to give up everything that you have? Isn't that stupid and selfish? Atleast for the sake of the people who actually care about you. Most of the people don't even leave anything behind for others, They don't care about what happens in the world after they're gone. Fuck, 99% of them don't even allow their organs to be donated.

[QUOTE=MaverickIB;28766995]Do something about it. Have you told your parents? Have you told a counselor? Have you told the principal? If you haven't, then you have no business bitching about it. Hell, join an MMA gym or something. You don't have to take physical action toward the bullies, but people that know how to fight have an aura around them that says "Don't fuck with me."[/QUOTE] This is so late. But yes, I have. My parents know. Hell, I had to report the Assistant Principle and my Guidance Counselor last year because they violated my Civil Rights. I have zero confidence in the school administration. I've contemplated dropping out several times now. Principle is a fuck, he was on the report we sent to the Federal Government as well. I tell the Teachers too but they're half the problem because they're heavy handed and insensitive. Half the problems I have are with the teachers. Hell, I was playing Basket Ball in not long ago, and I suck at it so I had some dick being a complete asswipe about it so I asked the teacher if I could go to guidance or something and he told me I couldn't and I asked if I could sit out he said I'd take a fail for the day (Five minutes left in class, literally) but I sat out because I was tired of being fucked with because I'm not good at dunking balls in hoops. (Ontop of that the gym class is violent they broke some girls jaw with the ball, that way the day after this) In the end he made it worse and went on to defend the kid "He's just trying to motivate you" "You need to learn teamwork, you just don't want to participate." and some bullshit. Luckily I got the credit and my gym class moved because I got a hold of the Vice Principle. Speaking of which that was the same day I asked him for the papers to drop out of school, and in the mean time I had gone out to get my Mom to come down and sign them and in the heat of the moment I said something about shooting myself and he overheard it and nothing came of that. They're such a group of dense motherfuckers.

So far everything has kind of stabilized. The Vice Principle I always see is scared shitless of us now since we called the Federal Government on that lot of them and there was an investigation. Right now my only huge, biggest problem is Gym. I just don't want to go anymore. I've lost the will to try because it feels like nothing will ever change and no matter where I get put or what I do someone is going to have something to say about me. So I just rather not go ever again but I literally need to pass Gym to graduate.

He's been arguing maturely all this time.

I did my research, and he wasn't actually bullied, lol. He just had a fight with his dad. [url]http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=159723540750882&ref=nf[/url]

Why would you kill yourself because of what some people are saying? I'd be more understanding/sympathetic if they were constantly beating on the kid everyday... I've had natives toss shit at me in school and stuff, but that's because they are outside the law here and can do almost anything they want. Other than that I've hardly bothered having any sort of communication between anyone during school. I had a couple friends that I'd hang with at lunch, and then see once in a while out side of school. Honestly, I couldn't have possibly cared what anyone had ever thought about me or what I did.

I doubt he killed himself for one simple reason such as a fight with his dad or being bullied.

[QUOTE=MrJazzy;28771266]Gosh, cool it. He's been arguing maturely all this time.[/QUOTE] no he hasn't

I'm so glad nobody at my school bullies. I remember once, during the beginning of the school year, these 2 hillbillys started stealing this short, chubby kids food. They started smacking him in the back of head. Then about 15 juniors and seniors got up, handed him their food, and started smacking the 2 hillbillys in the back of the head. Security let the 15 kids do that :love: Also, most everyone at my school is OK with gays, and those who aren't wouldn't dare bully. Really sucks for that kid in the OP. I agree with Zeke.

Brings tears to my eyes just thinking about it. It's disgusting me how cruel people treat homosexuals. I have to deal with that bullshit on top of racism (I'm one of the three Asians at my highschool).

[QUOTE=JDK721;28771515]no he hasn't[/QUOTE] He never insulted someone or anything, I don't see how anyone should be offended.

The first page of this thread is a perfect image of how fucking retarted the society is. So many people trolling about a serious topic.

[QUOTE=Wheaties;28771364]I did my research, and he wasn't actually bullied, lol. He just had a fight with his dad. [url]http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=159723540750882&ref=nf[/url][/QUOTE] That is actually more understanding than being bullied, as one generally takes words from his parents to heart and it sticks with them. If his dad did not agree with his sexuality, it would have been devastating to him.

A lot of the comments are people saying they are from facepunch. I don't think anyone besides the OP at his school knows what Facepunch is.

[QUOTE=CodeMonkey3;28771460]Is this directed at me or?[/QUOTE] No, the guy who killed himself. Though, I feel you should quit giving a shit about people's opinions about you. I don't mean be a dick, or act any different at all. Just when someone calls you a name or insults you, you tell them to shut the fuck up, or just ignore them.

Since most just want to go around trolling and spreading the forum's name...

[QUOTE=AutoTurret;28771711]Sounds like you just suck at sports.

[editline]23rd March 2011[/editline] Ah yes, here it is: [QUOTE=AutoTurret;28395674]Being gay nowadays is a plea for fucking attention. I strongly disagree that these many people are actually homos. More that half of the people that are gay at my school are fucking ugly girls that no guy would poke, even on facebook. This whole gay movement to me is complete bullshit in the teenage demographic. I know maybe one or two people that are genuinely gay and the rest are part of a fad, that joined the gay rights cancer that is spreading everywhere. Basically my verdict on these clubs from a first hand Texan experience, is that girls whore themselves out to other girls that are looking for a chance at popularity. As for the males, maybe some truly are fagots, but either way gay ain't the way.[/QUOTE]

I'm from Texas and I have no problem with homosexuality. You'd be surprised how liberal urban Texas areas are, it's the rural open country that is full of ignorance.

It just depends, really.
