I know most people say this and it's crap but if this happened to one of the gay kids in my school, I'd at least tackle the guy beating him up or smash a chair over his back or something. I can't believe nobody did anything. I hope it's because they were in shock and not because they didn't care.

There are several types of bullying. Not all types are criminal activites (e.g. teasing). However it's absurd that things like physical assault go unpunished.

And bullying someone because of their race/religion/gender/sexual orientation etc. is worse than bullying someone because they're wearing glasses or because they don't like Justin Bieber.

Wouldn't be surprised if they were all in on it.

Im sorry but this guy needs to be expelled from school and sent to some kind of shrink. He clearly has issues. I mean he is not just simply bullying this kid, he is kicking the holy crap out of him. And if his only reason for doing so is because the lad is gay, then he needs help. That or he is a closet case himself or has very low self esteem. What he did is downright disgusting and the school should be ashamed of themselves with a 3 day suspension. I would file action against the school for knowingly putting one of their students in harms way. not for the initial incident but for what will inevitably happen again once the suspension is finished. Some human beings just make me sick

What I find disgusting is the satisfaction the fat kid must have had.

Which points to another problem. In the first world countries, we are taught to not interfere and call for authority.

If you jump in to help and got hurt, the blame will suddenly be on you and everyone will point out saying it's your stupidity that you engaged.

if you beat the crap out of the aggressor, you'll be sued and/or punished.

That would be fucking pathetic. I mean, in my school, there is a gay kid, before he ws openly gay he'd constantly get made fun of, mostly behind his back and usually never anything too bad, but he'd never get beat up or have anything violent happen to him. Infact when he came out and became openly gay it all stopped, everyone just respected his bravery for being open. And my school is like 30% muslim and another 30% are in street "gangs". It's incredibly homophobic. It's changing now though. So this is just shocking to me.

To be honest though, I don't even really blame the fat kid. It's those awful parents that popped him out.

True, but I'm sure a lot of the reason why they didn't interfere is because that guy was massive and they were in shock  at the sight of it. I mean, I SAY that I'd do something, and I'm pretty confident that I would, but when you're in the moment it's probably not that easy. 

And why would that be the case ?

Is someone who got bullied for watching wrong cartoons less of a victim that someone being bullied for being gay ?
