Quote from Imada

well, im not sure that you should excuse killing people as being mentally unstable. Come on. They kill someone. no matter what the reason. they kill someone.

back on topic, I hate it when people think theyre better than me. That is mainly the cause of bullying and the cause of Nazism. Anyway, people call other people... words .... at my school and people just laugh at it. A kid in my school got so badly bullied (flamr knows who im talking about) he laughs when he gets essetionally, parred (is that how you spell it) and I ask him how can you laugh when you get insulted and he says, it was funny. he is almost immune to jokes. think about that

I have ti disagree with you on your first point...
If people cannot feel empathy (which can come from being mentally unstable) then they will never be able to understand what is wrong with killing. However, they do still need help with their condition.
And about that kid... his brain works in a different way to ours. He also does not feel empathy so in some cases he does not know if he is being Insulted or just being told a joke.

... one of us has the wrong definition of empathy, and I'm pretty sure it isn't me

lol. And that was a bit harsh to that kid flamr, Saying his brain worked differently. Why are you treating him like.. like some sort of mindfreak. In my opinion, everyone must feel empathy, and saying You Know Who has no empathy is kinda harsh. Its just that hes in a better environment and doesnt know how to act.And btw, empathy is when you feel for someone elses emotions. As you said, dont post unless you have researched what you are posting about. Your starting to post like me a while ago lol.

Okay flamr. Thats a bit harsh about what you said about that kid. As if he feels no empathy at all. Your treating him like some...some sort of freak. Its just that with all the bad environment that hes been in at his previous school i.e. painting his trousers red, You Know Who doesnt know how to treat other people when they are making a joke or they are actually offending you.

But what if he doesn't? There's plenty of people who actually DON'T feel empathy.

crap,I get bullied all the time.I used to say this when people call me names:
''heh,pretty true''

Now,if people tell me to get a life,my reaction:
LOL, I do have a life,but you really don't have a life,do you!?!

I still get called skinny as bone by the fat kids in my school class,its funny,really.But,I always take insults as critisizm and move on.Two of my teachers insult me,though,and when my parents found out,they started thinking about home-schooling me.DUUDGDET6E8FTB NO MOAR SOCIAL LIFE FOR MEH


besides church

The last time I was bullied was my 11th grade last year by this freshmen ,he kept wanting to pick a fight with me I didn't mind it or give any attention,But i got heated when i tried to actually hit me I want to hit him so bad I was excited too,but I stopped my self a few times until I nearly lost it,My friends stopped me. Later Me and him went to this event in our school called" Be the change" the main objective was to stop bulling and make others understand each other.It was working at the end everyone was sharing personal secrets and was crying,but me I was the only one not in tears but I like i was burning on the inside after be the change me and that kid became cool.

When those kind of events happen at my school, nothing changes and things get worse because kids try to pick on the guy who came up with the idea lol

Why did you say 'lol'? That's not funny.

We have reached the stage where the meaning of lol is forgotten.

Well everyone at my school liked the kid that came up with the idea. And there have been less fighting since than.

because at our school, nothing really matters unless you get expelled. Some kid got a detention on the first day and laughed.
And its kinda funny that some kids dont respect anyone other than themselves these days

In my opinion, people who had rough childhood could withstand bullying and control their anger.
Btw Imada, the same thing goes to my school, either. And I don't like that.

This is a good thread.
But this matter could not be guarded by teacher's all the time. So, it's just natural and kids should just handle it on their own.

I hate it too, they do the worst things behind the teachers back. TEACHERS DONT HELP ANYBODY except teach
