The mom says: “I figured, you know, black guy, bloody lip…”
Yuck.

Yuck. Your son’s broken arm doesn’t excuse such blatant racism.

As a mother, the idea of someone harming my child the way this one was harmed just fills me with rage. I don’t understand what drives people to behave the way they do. All I can say is if this were MY child, I’d be sitting happily in jail after beating the shizz outta some people. I know violence begets violence, but the abuse these kids are taking is beyond out of control.

@Hmm: black EYE. calm down.
Oh boy
Okay. You have just raised the racism paranoia and the racist police fingerpointing to a whole new level.
She said BLACK EYE. People get black eyes when they are assaulted. Black people were never brought up.
Unless you were making a joke.
Oh boy
@Hmm: Btw my comment above is directed at you. Before you accuse somebody of being racist, listen carefully first.
Gosh. Do people look to find this stuff? How can you confuse black eye with black guy?
Oh boy
One last thing. That kid is awesome.

Black eye….geez….listen up….

He doesn’t seem to fit the stereotypical queeny profile, so for that reason I can support him. If he was a provocative little bitch boy, I would be indifferent to his struggles. Anyway, I wish the kid well, he’s brave and full of life.

Gee, it’s nice that she’s OK with name calling. Let’s ask the mothers of the other kids who have recently killed themselves if name calling is alright.
