This was on facebook today and I wanted to share it with everyone, as it speaks to me.

Its very powerful with a great message.

This was very powerful. It stirred up weird emotions in me. I was never really bullied that I can remember, which is surprising considering my weight. And I've always kind of been curious about the portrayals of bullying in movies. It seemed so unbelievable to me that people would do that. I never saw any of that in my schools.

But reflecting upon this video, I do wonder about the people in grade school that got made fun of for their last name or a hole in their shirt. I don't ever remember participating, but I never went out of my way to stop it because I didn't want to be made fun of.

Regardless of how many campaigns against this, bullying will continue. I'm sure all of us, repeat, all of us, have bullied others before.

How can you be sure? Most ppl do NOT bully others.

OK, I figured why your post made me so angry- you're making it sound like it's stg normal- it is not. It can have disastrous consequences and has to be stopped.

I haven't. Speak for yourself.

I am absolutely sure that this is not true. Absolutely sure.

You claim you don't because you forget the last time you did. So I stand by my reasoning.

There is no reasoning involved when you make a blanket statement like that. Your idea that the rest of us forgot is absurd. Don't drag the rest of us into your issues.

Please provide a source for your claim that everybody bullies.

Since you don't actually know anybody else on the forum (and neither do I), the only reason you can have to make such a claim would be if you had seen a scientific study that indicated that all people bully each other. It would be extremely interesting to see that study.
