It took you this long to notice the world's cruelty? What world do you live in? I'm relatively privileged and I still recognize the unfairness of the world and its people. At the end of the day, there's no excuse for stuff like what happened with Amanda Todd happening. Those kids should be ashamed of themselves and the type of people they are becoming. They should all be prosecuted to the full extent of the law (I'm assuming bullying laws in Canada are similar as to the US?). The WORST part is that they are STILL saying they are glad she died! WHAT?! Nothing anyone could ever do would make them deserve death, being beaten and left alone in a gutter, being totally alone. I know what isolation is like, what it can do to your personality. Another thing that bothered me was that even the positive comments showed me the stigma we have in our culture: "How could anyone bully her? She's so beautiful!" So it would be justifiable to pick on her if she was ugly? Last time I checked we don't control our natural appearance and as a culture we at least pretend not to bully people for conditions they can't control. Bullying kids with autism is completely anathema now yet its not so bad/way more common to bully the fat chick? Does nobody else see the inconsistency here?
