it's funny because when you talk about "those people" you are talking about 5-15 year olds, and I guess reality is, they are some of the most evil people on earth because they have nothing else to do
i was on the receving end of bullingas well. your right kids arnt sopposed to do that. its ok to be your self. all the way up to grade 8 wich is the grade im in now i felt useless. words can be strong but achons can be stronger
I'm sorry you were bullied, its disgusting, poor Carl what a shame he didnt realise that eventually things get better, good luck to you, be gay and be bloody proud of it xxxx
you speak the truth, man! i too have been and in some cases still am a bully victim. it's a cruel thing that school administators and most parents just shrug off, when it should be dealt with!
no one should be picked on becasue they're different...if they're black or white...gay, bi or straight...jewish, catholic or muslim...NO ONE! we all make up this fuckin world. we're all differnet. we all count. words do hurt, even years later. its time we all face facts. STOP BULLYING NOW!!
If one looks at a number of the most recent gay suicides, one will begin to ni=otice that these people didn't have many, if any, people in their corner... maybe us as Gay men/lesbian women can reach out to any and all Gay/lesbian people we come across....odds are, one of those people is gonna be someone who needs a shoulder to lean on in tough times.
Amen. Everything you said was true. Also, who are we to judge anyone. May God Bless Carl Walker and his family. When things happen like this, I am immediately reminded of just how cruel the world is.
i would like to use your response, in a music video called outcast. Its a motivational, energetic uplifting song. not alot of people know me, but im starting to make music. Let me know yes or no:)
i agree with you 100%. i love how intellectual you are. i wish more people was like you. word do hurt. Some of the parent teaching their kid to be bullies & some kids are just follower. i really hate this horrible quote" kids will be kids" that almost saying "asshole will be asshole". it seem like parent teaching their kids to be okay with stupidity. instead of being okay with education or accomplish a goal in life.
I know Carl & his family. It had nothing to do with them. He just started going to the school i believe that school year.
It was an ongoing thing. His mother would call everyday, would have meeting with the school etc. Schools in Springfield, Ma are overpopulated and bullies are worst than they were before...
everything you said was right. I honestly don't really agree with homosexuality but I will be nice to you and make you feel like the gift you are. But Carl Hoover wasn't like the other boys. Not because he was gay but simply because he was a softer creature and the stupid little boys were mean. His so called friends were mean. The teachers ignored him and you know what his mom can't stop this on her own it takes team effort.
@halliezmandy hello mandy, you dont have to "agree" with homosexuality in any diffrent way than you have to agree with a persons hair or skin color. its just they way they are not a lifestyle. and as he said its okay to be gay. but your words are very kind and nice still. so have a great week, cu, Ben
@brotmann86 When it comes to homosexuality I'm in the middle. I'm not with it or against it. I love everyone no matter what or who you are. I am constantly hearing people use the horrible words fag and homo in a hateful way. I try stop them from being so hateful but it doesn't work.
Gayness is pretty weird stuff and hard to be comfortable around just because it is naturally repulsive for a straight person. But, I would never harm you or any other gay person in any way. People need to respect other people, their feelings, and things they can't change. The number one thing that God hates the most in the universe is mercilessness. Nobody should every forget that. The number one thing. It's what I hate the most myself.
I work in a school...and every single student that says anything derogatory.."faggot, jew"..etc will face consequences with me, so they do not do it...it only happens when WE allow it to happen.
No, man! That's not the way to go. We all have our flaws. Some people are just insecure with their own selves and they feel the need to talk about other people in an effort to make themselves feel better about who they are. If you ever need a listening ear, you know how to reach me.
Never mind JAllen there are two seperate cases. There was one down in here in atlanta where a spanish boy commited suicide for being called gay because he had a funny accent. Damn I can't believe this happened twice in two weeks
Jallen the kid was not african american he was spanish, but i get the point. Unless your talking about a different story. This one is from Atlanta right?
Great Video Man I can relate basically my whole high school life was based on Just that thing. Uh I actually couldn't take it any much longer so i dropped out...But you know this was a good video man. Mad Props
I really understand this and have no idea how I lived with it. I was called queer, faggot, shrimp and people made hand gestures. I just felt that if I could get through it, I was stronger than they were. I was stronger, because I rose above it all and didn't have to take my frustration out or cause issues. I just realized that they were imature and ignorant and that their family was probably the biggest reason for the way they were treating me.
i understand this, i was bullied all throgh out grade school. what i dont understand is how people canat take it. i mean if its not true dont worry, punch there face in and walk away. haha its got me through private school
great ;) I agree. I was teased too...especially from boys...years later, they saw me and they were like wow you changed..I smiled and said...yea but too bad you didnt lol
Great video man........you are the first You Tuber that I have seen who has addressed this tragic situation......thanks for speking out ...stay blessed
I'm in total agreement with you Allen! I, like many other gay people out there, went through the same rough times in school. I was called everything under the sun. It's awful... The kinds of cruelty little kids are capable of and it's doubly awful what happened to Carl, no little boy should go through a tortured life like that.
I am totally with you. I had the same treatment as you and Carl. This is the real struggle that gay people must pursue. I feel like I never had a childhood. You are a gay spokesperson that I respect and love. We need more people like you to speak from a personal experience and tell the truth because these are Our people whose lives are miserable everyday of their existence, and they wake up hoping that they can just be visible for one day. I am turning 60,but I will not forgive or foget the hate
i wish my school would hear this i get bullied almost ever day...DO NOT BULLY PEOPLE
