I am so utterly pissed off right now, it ain't even funny. Michael Raven, a 12 year old member of the LGBT community, took his life because of bullying. When is it enough? When do we say that enough lives have been lost? Kids, that have their entire lives ahead of them, are taking permanent action to a temporary problem. Someone needs to stand up and say that fucking bullying will not be permitted and that we won't fucking take it anymore. I'm so not understanding why people have to be so fucking cruel. It's time all of us stood up and with one loud ass voice tell the world, WE AREN'T FUCKING GONNA TAKE IT ANYMORE! What if it was your kid, your son, nephew, brother, cousin? Would you just stand there and do nothing, or get the fuck involved? People need to go to schools and social settings and tell these kids that there are people here for them. Tell them that they are loved and understood and that they need to stay around and hold on. There also needs to be someone to take these bullies aside and tell them that their behavior is not acceptable and that there are consequences for their actions. That cause and effect is real. They must not realize that you can make people feel so bad about themselves, that they feel there is nothing left in this life for them and that's when they end it. Everyone that reads this needs to start standing up before there is no one left for us to stand up for. There again, the ramblings of one fruit fly.
