Click the link, add your support to the fight.  I hate that bullies exist in the world.  We can't change that overnight.  What we can do is get people who are being bullied to trained therapists, so that they can cut all ties with bullies and better cope.  We can't erradicate bullies overnight.  That's human nature, unfortunately.  I was horribly bullied for being who I am by family and peers.  My aunt was horribly bullied and killed herself in the 70's.  I can't change bullies minds or hearts overnight.  But overnight change is needed to save good people from killing themselves.  Get your loved one's who are being bullied to a trained therapist or counselor.   And add your support to all movements, please.

I've dealt with bullies most of my life.

I hate bullies.

*shrug* Part of growing up geek. You learn early on to support your local Batman, and you also learn how to mobilize numbers. The bullied always outnumber the bullies, and bullies are cowards at heart.

That they are. Luckily, I had relatively supportive classmates back at my old schools, so I was relatively okay. The really difficult parts were the teachers, and even they were trying to do the best they could to help me. (I had...issues concentrating/fitting in as a child) #End anecdote.

But yeah, bullies are cowards at heart. That's definitely one of the only good things there.

One thing about it, if you can find the support against such things, you make some lifetime friends.

Appropriate icon is appropriate, I must say!
