What is wrong with the internet?

[chunkeymonke]

Most have you have probaly heard / read the story of Casey the kid who got bullied and pile drove the bully into a sidewalk. There is a thread about it on this site, but on that thread and throughout the entire internet people are congratulating Casey
Casey nearly killed another child in a fit of rage, this is not a good thing! The bully wasnt right at all and should be punished but what about Casey? What is next time he goes into a rage fit he pile drives or pushes a kid and accidently kills them like he almost did already?

Then they shouldn't be bullying him in the first place.

Also natural selection.

 

[Armored Prayer]

The way I see it the majority of people who are praising the guy probably suffered form bullying and see him as a hero or whatever.

I have nothing against the boy fighting back, but I do find it odd that everybody is congratulating him. I guess bullying is more serious than I thought.

I think, by it's nature, it has a lot of opinions on it.

Some of them aren't the same as yours.

BECAUSE HE IS JUSTICE!

What do you mean next time OP? Now there's no bully (presumably) there's no reason to go into such a severe RAGGGGGEEEEEEEEEE! State again, therefore no danger to others.

Your Honour the Defense would like the witness's testimony cleared of all baseless conjecture! We need only the facts of this case!

I wasn't aware this kid was almost killed. But fact of the matter is, he had bullying this guy for some time and was literally punching the kid. I see this as self defense, clearly.

BTW, why the hell was someone videotaping this incident to begin with?

 

[MellowFellow]

My only question for you OP is that what kid is going to try to bully him?

Also if a person, who is obviously smaller than you, starts throwing punches at you, would you just take it? Or would you fight back to get him to stop punching you?

I would never start a fight, but if someone is going to start one with me, I see no reason why I shouldn't defend myself.

The kid was tired of a bully bullying him and after taking a few punches decides he has had enough. He pile drives the kid and ends it. The bully deserved it anyways, he is the one who started it and wanted it video taped.

You might not be familiar with the act of 'happy slapping' in America, but it's generally someone beats someone up whilst one of their mates films it on a phone. Obviously it backfired though.

Still, some people, such as myself, have a sense of justice in which violent acts that are wrong are rewarded with greater violence in order to place the perpetrator in the victims place, and let them suffer it a little.

That might be why they're cheering him on.

I wouldn't go as far as to say he almost killed him. It has been made clear that the kid got away with only a slightly banged up knee.
But he is celebrated as a underdog hero, who stood up against his bully. And most people who ahve been bullied wish they could have done that.

He did almost kill the kid tho, had the little shit had his head a little further back he would have landed square on his head fucking up is neck and spine if not killing him putting him in a wheel chair. He was right to fight back, but I think just a putting him out with a punch in the head would have sufficed.

The moral of the story is this:

Don't want your spine shoved out of your arse? Don't provoke someone who is big enough to to go Zangief on you.

 

[emeraldrafael]

He didnt almost kill the kid. At worst he broke his ankle, and even then that was mainly just the fact that the location was so close.

The kid doesnt have any previous indications of violence, so this is purely retaliation.

You can't bully if you're too broken to move.

This wasn't some random rage fit. According the man who originally uploaded this video it said the Casey had been bullied for years and just finally snapped at this one person. I kinda doubt that he would just do this out of some random rage related this, this was searing hatred. And you could see it in his eyes that he wanted to kick the kid, but he didn't because he has self control.
Now I say take a chill pill, grab a brew and just relax man.

That comment, paired with your avatar.

You my good man, are priceless.

[BanthaFodder]

if the kid got hurt, it's his own damn fault. I wonder what's wrong with the people who think Casey would have been better off allowing the little shit to kick his ass. it's sick. Casey did the right thing. every kid should take this as an example to follow: if a kid puts their hands on you, give em 3 chances to stop. if they don't stop coming at you, kick their ass until they stop. incapacitate, nothing more.

i think casey might have gone too far and nearly killed him but i think the bully got what he deserved. i have been bullied before and it doesnt seem to matter what you do you end up in a bad place.

you tell a teacher etc and your a snitch and people will ahte you or pick on you more and generally the bully just gets some weak as warning because they are on the basketball team or something.

you take the bullying and you just keep getting bullied. they might get bored and stop but not likely.

you fight back and get beaten up cause your being bullied cause you cant defend your self cause your weaker. you both get suspended or expelled

you fight back and hulk out and go a little crazy and nearly kill the guy. you both get suspended but you wont get picked on for a while after that cause your the crazy kid.

so out of all the options i can imagine for someone being bullied what casey did seemed to be the best option for him.

that is the option i normally took in school. knock someone to the ground if they get up keep knocking them down till they dont get up. or beat someone in the face till their face is pouring so much blood they have to close down the toilets to clean up the blood.

i dont really care if bullies have it hard at home or what ever crap excuse they come up with. if you pick on someone you better be ready to defend yourself cause only a pussy takes a beating from a bully and does nothing about it.

also i was surprised to find out this was from a sydney school. with the global attention it got i thought it must have been from america
