Thread: A new hero for all bullied kids
Andres 11:12 03-16-2011
These stories always end in the same way, don't they?

Bullies only stop once the victim finally finds the courage to give them a good beating.

It was no different with me. Just like Pizza, I was from the "couldn't hurt a fly" type. In primary school (from 6-12 years), I was a giant (but I kinda stopped growing in secondary school, where I became of average lentgh after a year or two). I always was the tallest kid in class during that period. And the strongest. And the smartest, if I may proudly add

And yes, there were two other kids who bullied everybody else and I, the friendly giant, was the usual target. Others got bullied by them too, but I was most frequently bullied. And nobody had the guts to stand up against them.

Until one day, after a couple of years of bullying, I simply had enough of it, I snapped and I punched them both straight in the face and then literally threw them away.

The funny thing is, I never had done that before, not because I was afraid of the bullies (I was a full head taller than them), but because I was afraid I would... hurt them too much

Anyway, both their faces showed the marks of my punches for more than a week (). Of course, I got punished by the school authorities because of it (thankfully, this was before the age of hysterical parents who take a lawyer if somebody dares to ruin the haircut of their beloved, holy children who never do something wrong), but one teacher who had seen it all, took me apart after it had happened and you know what he said? He said to me that he had never understood why I had taken that **** for so long and that he was glad I finally stood up for myself Indeed, my teacher was proud of me. My parents not so much, but they weren't exactly angry at me because of it. I think they understood, but didn't want to encourage such behaviour.

In secondary school (12-18 year) there was this one kid who bullied everybody. He claimed he had a black belt in karate

One day, he made the mistake to pick on me. Of course, I had learned my lesson in primary school. One unexpected punch on the side of his head and he simply went down. It happened outside of school. He never tried to bully me again, but he kept bullying others and was eventually expelled.

YouTube can take down all the English versions of the video, but they can't keep up with the French.

If a video is banned, always try searching for it in French too, or any other language besides English. The internet is a vast place:

The part where the kid just took the first punch, basically unfazed, is fairly epic.

"This is the part where you run away, little boy..."

The one in red was clearly going to win that fight.

i never really understood bullying having grown a relatively popular and large kid, especially after a few typical first days of school confrontations (i moved alot so went to quite a few different schools). But my current girlfriend who is now quite attractive in all honesty told me she was bullied horribly in middle school i didnt believe it (being the gorgeous korean-croatian she is). Turns out she had an awkward phase which i suppose is believable and that one kid in particular tormented her ceaselessly and while i finally pried this out of her i can see the mental scars and psychological damage he did to her. it enrages me even to think of it (i don't want to get into details but it is very sad). I got the name of the kid from her and lo and behold turns out (thank you facebook for simplifying stalking) he goes to the same major state university as one of my best friends.

Now this is rather shameful but i went to visit my friend at university for a few weeks and once again with the joy of facebook saw a party he would be attending. I along with my friend (had no idea of my intentions) went to said party. When i was there i obviously did not go up to the kid and say you bullied k****. No it was much more refined. I took my glasses which i never wear out because they attract @$$ hole tough guys like flies to honey and put them on. Then i went up to him and spilt my beverage on him. he did not take this in stride and began to get in my face. blessing god that he obviously hadnt mellowed out since 7th grade i then proceeded to use 9 years of boxing to give him a very painful lesson in why public humiliation is wrong. After the confrontation the house in which there was a party had a broken ping pong table. I was lucky that no one seemed to care about the place and that it wasnt a bar or something with a bouncer or that his friends wanted to back him up (if he in fact had any)

the greatest reward was that my friend has a droid and the presence of mind to record the whole thing. while my girl didnt thank me (thought it was wrong) i could tell that she felt a little better about the whole experience to be honest.

The negatives were that i fractured two fingers and had to explain to rotc how that happened (hand got trapped in a car door...... it worked.) and i was out of the dollar bill i dropped on his body to get to say "clean yourself up"

was it wrong of me for what i did? probably but in the end he brought it upon himself really by continuing the conflict. i don't feel bad at all if you knew what he had been subjecting this poor girl too and what she then put herself through; its just horrible.

Honest answer: maybe. You were seeking to avenge someone and basically instigated the whole thing. I'd place that under a different category from self-defense.

I'm not scolding you, but it could also have ended badly. What if one of his friends had a weapon and used it on you? Would it have been worth it?

I certainly understand where you're coming from though. Sometimes I'd entertain thoughts of inflicting harm on those who have harmed me, by starting a conflict of my own but.... it's just not me, I guess. You also have to figure, at my age, there would likely be legal repercussions, and it's just not worth it. Whether they have changed or not, is it worth it to cause even more senseless violence, and place myself in unnecessary risk? I'd settle on "no", just my take.

Buzz Killington, eat your heart out.

No, you did the right thing, bro. Props to you. Who else was going to do this, do you think? The teachers? The cops? Lol. That'll be the day. Life can really suck, and we need to look after our own affairs. Nobody else cares.

You reap what you sow, remember? Let God commit vengeance. Well, your girl didn't go after revenge. You did. You were God's tool to balance out her part of the universe. It's all good.

Just don't make a habit out of this thing, though.
