    This article is so gay its retarded.



    But seriously, what ever happened to sticks and stones. We all know bullies are just insecure people who try to compensate and get attention the only way they probably know how. People are going to hate and I think its much more healthy and realistic if we try to teach kids to deal with hate then try to stop people from hating. We can not expect everyone to like us. We all are going to make enemies and learning how to deal with them is a part of life. I mean really, what kind of example to we make if we make a federal case out every little discriminating remark made about us or someone we care about. OK its OK if someone says something mean to you we will make the government fix it? Oh yea thats the high road.

    I think tho Jay that the article is talking about a more subtle side of life....the ease in which kids (and others) use slurs online now.Not sure if it has much to do with bullying, moreso to do with using words in text that we wouldn't typically use in conversation in public...

    I see it as becoming grammatically jaded..."I call my friends nigger all the time on MSN, cuz dey is my crew" and that same kid wouldn't use the term in a school classroom for example because part of him knows that it's offensive.

    I typically wont swing on someone unless they really really do something bad.. Now I may fire some verbal shots back, and if things escalate that's a different story... I would clothesline DGX as hard as I could... kidding..

    Yeah me too.I'll try to stop a fight and I'll try to embarrass someone throwing at me..but usually I won't hit someone unless they're hurting someone else.
    last fight I had was in the park behind my house and some drunk kid was smacking his g/f on a bench 30 yards from my back step...

    wasn't much of a fight...but I couldn't just sit there listening and watching that crap

    I figured you'd say something like that. I can just see the scenario...

    "Officer, I know he's in a wheelchair... no I've never seen him before in my entire life... you don't understand... he called me a fag".

    I didn't break into your apartment. I rolled up on you when you were out drinking.
