I have no understanding for the whole ''This ain't so bad, people get beat up all the time''-mentality whatsoever. Hearing such nonsense drops my faith in humanity quite a bit. It is never ok in any way to straight up assault someone like this, and just because it has happened plenty of times before, and will happen plenty of times in the future as well, doesn't make it any more acceptable. You don't need to have hope for the humanity. Just read history. They have always been wars and fights and beating. It's just the way the world it is. When there is not enough aggression the tension is getting an edge and something big is happening. Like 9/11 and other kind of modern terrorism. For god sake look what happened in Norway in one of the most peaceful country in the world... Just think what are the preconditions for these happenings. The world haven't seen such things I believe. And I'm not just talking - read books, history and etc think in your own mind and you will figure out one not so pleasant picture about the present and future day. P.S. Stupid are people who doesn't teach the history and forgive the mistakes of the others before them. Look forward but have in mind what happened before. So beating in school is one completely normal thing which many of the kids have faced one time or another. | ||

I am not saying it is a good thing, it is just that all of you are overreacting.As some people said, its a normal bully going into violence. We don't know exactly what happened.The official opinion is that The bully was waiting for him in the classroom and then beat the crap out of him. Well, in that case the bully is fucking retarded. If he was at least a bit clever he would have waited for him outside, where less people can interfere. But that's only if that's the case. But there is another option (although it isn't so plausible) that the gay kid MAYBE provoked him in some way.Plus, getting beat is just another hard lesson in life. Whatever doesn't kill you makes you stronger, remember? | ||

People get beaten all the time for no reason, they are less important because they aren't in some minority? | ||

It's sensational because it's a total non-issue that is, in reality, a VERY tiny deal... shit like this and worse happens constantly. Yet it's framed in a sensational manner to garner more views and seem like a much bigger deal than it is. Do you even know what this word means? | ||

A mutual fight or some kid getting made fun of is a non-issue. A kid getting the shit beat out of him, and the 'meh' attitude that surrounds it is a very big issue. There is no reason it should be acceptable to beat the shit out of someone at any age. | ||

Why would you defend something as horrific as a planned attack against any human being in a school. Debate teams of the 2011's, please STFU on this issue. NO TOLERANCE. | ||

I think, psychologists call this "emotional blunting" and I think, we are all affected by this (hey, we're playing StarCraft and cheer about death animations of units, e.g.). Of course it's in our own responsibilities to act accordingly (actually being able to distinguish between game and reality), but imo it's a very long term process that is very difficult to recognize, because the media (TV, newspapers, internet) are trying to catch one's eye with even more stunning news, showing even more intense violence (and news are accessible easily for children as well). Due to this, I think, people passively tolerate much more violence and antisocial behaviour which leads to incidents like mentioned in the OP. It may be a bit far fetched, but just some of my thoughts... | ||

A school can't be left to deal with assault in the same way a church shouldn't be the ones doling out punishment for child rape. | ||

But he was gay. And you're greatly deluding yourself if you think gay kids getting creamed at school like this doesn't happen regularly. It does, and it's a serious issue. Basically, two things: 1) A physical assault like this is fucking horrible, no matter what kid it was done to 2) Gay kids at school are the victims of far more bullying in school than straight kids, so yes, it does matter that he's gay | ||
