CCers and Bullies

<p>So I moved to a new state and after the first semester I made my first bully (yay). I mean bully as in they constantly physically and mentally harm you and you did nothing wrong to get bullied. My bully got early acceptance to Harvard, and I'm planning to stop him from going. I have been in film from 4th grade and I'm almost done with my.video on what it's like to get bullied
at highschool. I took a camera at school purposely walked to my bully so he could make fun of me and push me around. I also filmed him being a two faced person. I filmed him helping 10/10 girls with math and talking to teachers nicely. Once my video is done I am going to send it onto YouTube, Facebook, and to everyone I can at Harvard. So that even if he does get in people won't like him there.</p>

<p>What's your story</p>

<p>This seems kinda excessive. I’m sorry you’re getting bullied, but you should just confront him. People will make of you for actually making the video.</p>

<p>I can’t confront him, cause his mom is with him at school. One time a girl spilled water on his pencil and he literally cried and almost sued the girl demanding she pay him back. And I’m going to be anonymous in the video, so its cool.</p>

<p>I don’t think it’s a good idea.You may get sued if the video become famous because you don’t have his consent to put him in the video. There’s going to be a lot of trouble. </p>

<p>Confront him calmly. Ask him to stop. Don’t show vehement emotions, you can show that you are concerned and mildly upset in your tone, but don’t scream, yell, or cry. I have noticed that bullies love to provoke you even more when you react vehemently. Be prepared though, it may or may not work. If he is harming you physically, you will want to notify the authority.</p>

<p>“Confront him calmly. Ask him to stop.”</p>

<p>Does this actually work in real life?
I highly doubt the fact that the OP wants it to stop would be news to him. </p>

<p>Is it really illegal to film someone in a public place? It would be illegal to go into someone’s home and secretly tape them, but don’t you sort of implicitly consent to that kind of thing when you go out in public, what with security cameras and all?</p>

<p>just talk to your guidance counselor.
good luck!</p>

<p>OMG if your school has TVs around the school, figure out a way to play your video all over the school! Good luck! Take that bully down!</p>

<p>Wait, this isn’t a fine idea, or a bad idea, or even a terrible idea, it is literally the worst idea i have ever heard: Spiteful vengeance at its worst. You were bullied in high school, it must have sucked, and i bet it hurts to see this guy have a great future ahead of him, but ruining his future or making it significantly worse in the name of retribution is self-indulgent. If he learns his lesson, what does that do to better society? He’ll never bully anyone again? No. You’re idea serves no practical or constructive purpose. The result will be a significantly saddened person and your pleasure and self-satisfaction with the “good job” you’ve done. Think about what you’re doing and its consequences. Stop this, now.</p>

<p>How did this ape get into H?</p>

<p>Take him down.</p>

<p>Must have been good at BSing. A lot of people are.</p>

<p>“If he learns his lesson, what does that do to better society?”</p>

<p>I’m not entirely sure OP’s plan is a good idea either, but doesn’t justice have inherent value?</p>

<p>Set up a meeting with your counselor, principal and him. That usually sets them straight.</p>

<p>^
At which point he’ll deny it and OP will look bad. He got into Harvard, he must be pretty persuasive.</p>

<p>@Halcyonheather Yes it does, but in this case i can see the OP’s motivation is self-indulgent and rather nasty. He wants justice in the sense that he wants to exact satisfaction from this bully’s significant loss</p>

<p>This is a horrible idea. Please do not do this. Fight bullying by bullying him back? That makes absolutely not sense. Talk to your counselor/principal about this instead. If he has physically harmed you, report it to the police. If you feel your counselor/principal do not handle the situation, you can find other ways of dealing with this, but this is not a good option.</p>

<p>One time I got my lunch money stolen by this goon named dfree124.</p>

<p>Just because he is a bully doesn’t mean he BS’d his way into Harvard…who says geniuses can’t be bullies? Just saying. I mean, why would being a bully mean that he doesn’t deserve Harvard, it’s not like only nice people can go. Shame on him for being a bully, I get that, but…I don’t see the point in this. I think justice would better be served if the OP showed the video to the principal or something to get him in trouble, not Harvard and the world.</p>

<p>Bullying is a terrible thing. But ruining someone else’s future just because of some mistakes he made when he was in high school is wrong. Talk to the principal, bring your parents at school, confront him, do whatever you want but don’t make a video and post it everywhere. It’s a terrible idea. Really, don’t.</p>

<p>The only people who seem to support this idea are the ones who seem to come off on here as being complete geeks in real life.</p>
