Bullying SHOULD be old news..

      We live in a world that keeps finding reasons to make another person feel awful about who they are. Unfortunately, more people support the side that promotes bullying, harassment, and worst of all judgment. It's not up to us as a society to judge someone based on their life. We each have a different lifestyle and we all are different; whether anyone wants to believe it or not. Just because someone doesn't fit in societies standards of perfect or beautiful, we immediately should be able to reticulated and harass them. Then, if someone does it to us it's wrong and the person doing it to us should be beat up or such. Well, it's wrong no matter who you are, what your story is, or whatever may be the case, to bully and harass someone that you may or may not know anything about. Though, with the way things are set up, I know this will probably live on until the end of the world. However, instead of jumping on the bandwagon of harassment and bullying we could begin to fight back. There is people no matter how much promotion there is to 'non-bullying' they will immediately use the 'offended' card on people. I'm sorry to inform you but the whole offended by such comeback is getting old. I'm not offended by bullying, but I'm ready for there to be an end to it. It's getting old watching people go back and fourth in insults, why can't we just be nice? Is it because 'it's for kids'? Well guess what? Being nice has no age. In a world of awful, continuous news, why can't we spread more positive? Of course there will be that person or people who find a way to make someones positive attempt into a bad one. A terrible excuse for bullying/harassment has to be 'well my parents are this way so I am'.. NO! You don't have to be like your parents. You are not force to be rude and cruel to others, you have the choice to change. I'm nothing like what my biological family was like, I made it my goal not to become anything like them. We live in a world full of hate, harassment, and bullying, why can't we just change that? It's not hard.
     There are so many ways to lessen the problem. Someone makes an insulting comment on your status: DELETE it. It's not on your status? then just ignore it, don't give it your attention. That's what these people want, is people start an augment, get grumpy about it. If it's verbal, ignore it.  Believe me, I know it's hard to just ignore it. If it's physical, do something about it. Speak up! There is more people on your side then theirs.
     Don't fight fire with fire. It puts nothing out. Fight it with water, make it peaceful, and don't jump on the bandwagon. It's hard living in this world of so much hatred, but let's remind society there is still people with hearts.
