Gay Kid Sues High School Over Bullying
Alleges Violence, Sexual Assault, General Meanness
Gay bullying's no laughing matter. It's so unfunny, in fact, that the New Jersey Supreme Court recently ruled that schools have a constitutional duty to protect gay kids from school yard tyrants. Why, then, are we slightly amused by a case down in Oklahoma?
Here's what's happening: 19-year old Michale D. Bullis has filed a lawsuit against his school for failing to protect him against scores of sourpusses who made his life a living hell. In addition to getting his fill of epithets, knuckle sandwiches and other typical thug gifts, Bullis' bullies went the extra mile:
Bullis was also subjected to repeated sexual assaults, which consisted of inappropriate and unwanted backrubs accompanied by verbal mockery and insults, inappropriate stroking of his neck and throat, also accompanied by blowing in his ear and touching, and rubbing and grabbing his genitals...That doesn't sound so bad to us. Yeah, the beatings ain't fresh, but this doesn't sound like the work of a bully. It just sounds like someone was trying to get a date. As for being "amused" - we take that back. We're bemused.

Grow up boys. You might think there's something snarkily funny about sexual assault but there isn't. Maybe being taken in this manner was your adolescent fantasy but I'm sure the victim didn't think so.
Typical self-loathing queens ready to kick a queer when he's down. You guys should work for OUT--I hear they have an opening for editor and they love assholes over there.
Sorry, boys, I'm with the peanut gallery on this. If males were doing this to a female student, there would 8 different kinds of hell to pay for it. Just cuz the gender's different doesn't make it worthy of anything but scorn.
Oh what the heck, I'll pile on. One of the stupider attempts at edgy humor you've dropped lately, and that's saying a lot...
Maybe you guys should get bullied around a bit, get your fucking ass kicked and then you'll have a little more sympathy. Fuckers. go to hell.
