I saw this documentary "Bully" at the True/False film festival last night with my mother and her friends, and it really moved me. I've never seen people being physically bullied, or see that no one does anything about it. It showed me how ugly and cruel people can be. I have been cyberbullied, but I haven't PHYSICALLY been bullied. In the film, a boy is being stabbed with a pencil and strangled on the BUS for NO REASON! The damn bus driver did nothing! It infuriated me so much! And when the kids from the documentary came out to do a Q & A, the kid that got stabbed and strangled was so nice and funny and he was even a little attractive. There was no reason he should have been bullied and had no friends, because he was and still IS a good person.
People need to go see this film, because it's time the truth comes out and people are aware of what's happening. It's coming out in theaters soon. BUT, there's something going on where some people are trying to make the movie rated R, which means most people won't be able to see it if they are under seventeen. And sadly, it appears that will be what is happening. :'( That's where we come in. A girl on Change.org created a petition to change the rating to PG 13, and so far it's doing well. But WE ALL need to sign it! Please!
