    I came across an interesting youtube video of a boy being bullied.
    He writes notes to explain his situation. Its really quite moving.

    Yesterday when i found it there was 421k views. Its now at 3million and increasing faster.
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TdkNn3Ei-Lg

    Thought it might be worth sharing as the topic is so serious and alot of people can relate.

    Thought that too. I mean ok if this is true (there's my question-everything-on-the-net attitude again), he's in a terrible situation. Why doesn't he get some help. Didn't really explain why he was being targeted and that he has taken this punishment for so long.

    In that time he could've learned some sweet martial art and kicked the bullies ar$e..............Wait. No. That's in a movie.

    the description for that video is spot on anyway.

    Kids and adults for that matter don't need a reason to bully, it can be as simple as being known as the poor kid in class to rumours of being gay or what not.

    the reason for being bullied isn't important.

    Apparently it was a fake. Either way, that lad needs help.

    The comments there are brilliant.
    Instead of picking on Justin Beiber lets f*ck with this idiot.

    So my skepticism paid off then! HA!

    we all got locked last night. Monday blues today.


    Even though he seems to say its fake there, people are saying it's not. Apparently he posts on twatbook or something.
    He's gotten over the depression, and now become an obnoxious runt who we all want to go and.....
    The irony is amazing.
    Humans are ****ed up species

    He's just an attention seeking little fecker tbh. Also if you're being bullied go to a teacher or stand up to them.

    Googled it and apparently it is a reference to the last episode of the TV show 'Six Feet Under'. Still not sure of the connection though. The guy looks like one of the characters/actors maybe? Or could be that someone did a holding up cards with writing thing in the episode?
