Did anyone else watch this on channel 4 tonight? It finished about 20 mins ago.
On of the most thought provoking things I have watched for weeks. Not sure if it was film, documentary or what but the basic plot was:
boy gets bullied, boy gets video camera and videos life at school, get bullied more, boy commits suicide, mum goes on an indiscriminate killing spree around the school.
From that, it sounds pretty sick I guess but actually it wasn't. I'm not sure who made the thing and what for, but it seemed to be putting across a message along the lines of "bullies are doing more harm than they think".
Really not sure what to make of it. It was quite disturbing actually. It wasn't an entertainment type program. It came across as if it really was happening right now.
Anyone else see it and have any views?

Gangsta Hamsta
Thats a great nickname!
Best way to deal with a bully. Kick the cr@p out of them.
I was bullied once and told the teacher many times, and as usuall nothing was ever done about it.
So one time I just fought back, and guess what, I got detention, he got off scot free.
Never touched me again though!

Mm, that rose a few bad memories. Ah well.
Yeah I watched it. It was, very disturbing. Especially when he topped himself off. Very scary. And especially when he was filming it too. Makes it more realistic, like, Blair Witch stylee. Well, it was very scary. And thats how much bullies can do to you. They can reck your life.
"Whatever doesn't kill you can only make you stronger"
Well, how do I know this? Well, me, I was bullied, for unknown reasons, I was always left out of everything and they used to plot things behind my back, like once, we all was meeting for the cinema, and we arranged it so we all meet outside the cinema at 11ish. I was 30mins early and I waited and waited and then I finally went in by myself. Watched the film, alone. And then I asked them why they never turned up the next school day.
"We went on the day before"
But they couldn't fricking ring me up could they? Jesus..
That a really small thing. But, they used to make me fight them, and they used to make things up like "Oh he said that he really hates you and he wants a fight after school" and then i'd have to fight. Or, normally run.
It all builds up till you can't take it. 6 hours of physical/verbal abuse a day, Mon-Fri. Leaves you depressed. Even at the age I was, only a baby 11. I had no friends. And very few people liked me. For reasons I will ever know.
I once, was in the mirror, and I had a knife up to my throat. Wandering if I should just kill myself and end all the crap. But no, I didn't. And, a few weeks later, they wanted another fight, so, right I thought, "Thats a bloody nuff. Your dead mate"
I hit him so hard that his eye closed up, and he had a bruise the size of my fist on his face. Nobody ever touched me again. But, bullies. Just fudge off.

Never been bullied, and I can't say I've ever seen anyone being bullied. Never really thought about it.
I watched it, pretty disturbing stuff.
All I can say is I can tell that a great deal of people who contribute to these forums are bullied at school.
