1 - Should, as Rick Mercer suggests, all well-known homosexuals openly admit to the public that they are gay?
Not necessarily. If one wishes to keep his private life and hobbies private, there’s no shame in that. The bigger problem is born of discrimination from sexual orientation, or rather, the fear of said judgment: it has been clearly shown that men and women of all ages display discomfort, rudeness or even flat-out (albeit camouflaged) forms of segregation to keep people with a different sexual orientation at bay. Isn’t it somewhat shameful to say that, in this age of so-called technological advancement and progress, humans are unable to relinquish the out-dated taboo of sexual preference? The only reason public figures and celebrities do not always openly reveal their sexuality is due to the fear of being judged, intimidated or stoned solely due to the fact that they are gay…Ridiculous, no? So, I’m sorry to say so Mr. Mercer, but I don’t think you have the right idea: rather, what should be done is abolish this unspoken, global epidemic of crippling homophobia so that children and adults who have aren’t heterosexuals can live their lives unhampered by moronic preconceptions and the blasphemy of imbeciles who consistently spew a noxious slur of anti-gay slurs. Now, I don’t mean suck it up and be a total hard-ass about everything (I mean, even I find some of those “trouser pilot” jokes pretty funny myself), but the least that can be done is to do away with this unjustified, slanderous hate cries. After all, even our old buddy Rick (who, surprisingly, did not mention he was he himself a “trouser pilot” during his speech, an odd fact considering he already openly revealed his homosexuality a few years back to the people of Canada) said that homosexuals don’t need to strut their stuff around town bearing the conventional rainbow-patterned flag, lulling every human being to sleep with their redundant bitching: the only thing that truly needs to be accomplished is an abolition of discrimination and intimidation towards homosexuals. Because, like it or not, what happened to Mr. Hubley will happen again if nothing is done to put a stop to this sickening, inhumane display of cruelty.
2 - Who is responsible for helping bullied students? (Are we all responsible – this is what a journalist claims in response to Rick Mercer’s blog - read the article I linked - No, Rick Mercer…)
-IMPORTANT FOREWORD- I got REALLY pissed writing this: please just dismiss the threats in the post-scriptum as a rueful man’s ramblings…-
Well, while I’m don’t agree one-hundred percent with this short article (excuse me if I sound a little crude here, but judging by the way this man was writing his text, it almost seems like he himself is a homosexual who doesn’t want people to learn about his sexual orientation…I’m just saying), I support his main thesis: EVERYONE (notice the big, underlined, capital letters) needs to stand up and help bullied students, but also bullied coworkers, acquaintances and family. How people can turn a blind eye to another’s abuse by the hands of a fellow man or woman (don’t deny it ladies: you can be unconventionally cruel or hurtful) is almost brain-numbingly deplorable. Abandoning, ignoring or causing the suffering of another person is, in itself, a crime towards humanity. Sugar-coat it all you want, contradict me all you want, but you cannot sway me: bullying is nothing less than a form of torture. Physical, mental and social torture. Look the other way if you want to: all you’ll see is more abuse. What’s that? You won’t stand up or help someone being bullied because you’re scared or intimidated by someone, dismissing it as “none of my business”? If so, I say to you, in all honesty, and from the bottom of my heart, the following words: Fuck you, you pathetic excuse of a living being. This is the absolute lowest form of cowardice that can exist: someone is slowly dying (no, I am not exaggerating – dying is indeed the correct word to employ in this particular situation) before you, and you just blow it off as nothing at all? Please, slit your wrists in repentance immediately…unless you’re all too terrified to do THAT too, and need me to do it for you, you spineless, gutless, soulless, dehumanized pieces of beast dung. However, what downright appals me is the fact that nobody did something to help Jamie Hubley. Really? Nobody noticed? The boy was pushed to suicide thanks to wallops of bludgeonings and insults, and absolutely no one noticed? Bullshit. Nobody gave a damn to help, that’s what happened. Not a classmate, not a teacher, not even one of the bullies (who could have surprised somebody and shown a shred of human decency) did anything. And you know why? Probably because nobody wanted to be associated with the reject, the wimp, or, most likely, the homo. Give me a god damn break. Everyone and anyone MUST (as in you’re obliged to) help people who are being bullied, or more calamities such as the death of Mr. Hubley will begin anew. This isn’t a suggestion. It is an order. Abandoning someone in dire need is a crime, punishable by law. Why a boy ravaged by endless bullying is not considered someone “in dire need of assistance” blows my mind. So be human, and help humanity.
-P.S. – Sure it sounds kind of laughable to hear me say this stuff, but I know the people who will be reading this. That said, if I ever catch any of you brutalizing somebody, physically or verbally, or ignoring someone’s suffering, allow me to promise you that I will personally shove an icepick through your lower jaw…And believe me, it isn’t that hard to do – bones and flesh in that area are particularly easy to pierce. (And to all of you who have gall to resort to cyber bullying (AKA: hiding like a timid little bitch in your bunker, to craven to even insult someone directly), I will not hesitate to stomp your skull till nothing but a filthy, gore-ridden mass of crushed bone, flesh, blood and splattered brain matter remains…And hey, maybe I’ll give you a little taste of your won medicine and post a picture of your eviscerated cranium on Facebook or something…)
3 - Should kids just be tougher and accept bullying or should the bullies be punished (in other words are kids just being kids and will the bullies eventually grow up and regret their actions)
Bullies are to be punished. By torture. Why? As I said earlier, bullying is nothing less than torture (it may be, perhaps, something more though), and, while I’m not that much of a believer when it comes to the traditional “an eye for an eye” philosophy, I do believe this is the only appropriate course of action to take: kids that bully other kids ruin lives. The only proper way to repay the suffering they cause is to have them become aware of the endless blights they spread, through pain. I’m hardly exaggerating: Hubley had batteries shoved down his throat, was endlessly harassed, and eventually killed himself in desperation (as in a complete loss of hope). The bullies who did this to him (and, actually all bullies) should have their stomachs torn open whilst they still live so that they bathe in their own filth, the skin of their faces and their eyelids torn off, and their genitals lacerated till they become nothing more than ground meat…Then, they should be asked to apologize, and beg to be released. And, for the final touch, they should be expelled from their school, and possibly, exiled from the province, state, country, and/or continent. Please notice that I am dead serious. Bullies should be tortured. Sounds fair, doesn’t it? Of course it does.
