He hunted down a child and killed him, and you're telling me this is somehow legal?

George Zimmerman was found Not Guilty.  I feel like I'm going to throw up.  I have never been so ashamed of the state of my birth.

Please sign the NAACP's petition to the U.S. Department of justice to try George Zimmerman for violation of Trayvon Martin's Civil Rights

*hugs* I'm so glad!

Physical bullying is tolerated in US schools to a ridiculous extent. Emotional bullying is barely acknowledged as real. People are only just starting to cotton onto the fact that maybe bullying is not some cute little rite of passage.

Yeah. It's incredible how many times a day I hear people excuse bullying as part of growing up. But it's like people need to torture one another to make themselves feel good about themselves. And they don't let up. I honestly don't know what schools can do about this when parents and teachers and administrators just stand back and do nothing. What can be done?

Thanks, I do feel so much more mature. My accident also helped me gained perspective. Life is funny that way.

Yeah, bullying is part of growing up for so many of us, but you know, not that long ago, polio was a part of growing up.

Snort, yeah, that is so very true. It's a plague on our society on every level. Sigh, takes a shot in your honor.
