CyanideFishbone Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 Discuss this news story. Honestly, this is probably one of the worst news stories ever. Despite the incident happening 5 months ago.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clappy Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 Is it bad that I'm actually unaware of this story until I looked it up on Google? Now that I know of the story, it's another example as to why bullying is awful. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/04/14/michael-morones-my-little-pony_n_5148498.html Story is here for those who walked into this thread wondering what it was about like I did.

CyanideFishbone Posted June 14, 2014 Author Share Posted June 14, 2014 Yeah. He's been doing better to, but what really hit me in the gut is: 1. We live in the same state 2. I used to be bullied for liking MLP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TJ Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 Ugh, bullying is so disgusting. If you have to put other people down to make yourself feel better or powerful, than your a pathetic sack of shit. I mean, just recently, my eight year old sister was cyberbullied on Instagram (or it might have been KiK) by her so called "friends". My mom even almost got the police involved.

Steel Sponge Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 I've heard of this story months ago, and it still sickens me. Bronies are still having it hard amongst certain groups in society and it comes to a public example where the kid attempted suicide. Bullying is still a problem too and this is a good example why everyone shouldn't do it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CyanideFishbone Posted June 14, 2014 Author Share Posted June 14, 2014 Me too. I heard about it around 5 days after the suicide attempt was made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crushingmayhem Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 This is really sad. I don't know why bullies even exist, they should know that they don't find anything with abusing other people. Maybe the kid needed to give them a lesson; kinda similar to what I did once, only that got me suspended. But still, attempting suicide is never a good thing no matter how bad the suffering is.

terminoob Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 I wonder how many people on tumblr thought this was okay because he's a brony. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wumbo Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 I think his being a cis white male is enough for tumblr to think it's okay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terminoob Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 I think his being a cis white male is enough for tumblr to think it's okay. Right. Add on brony to that and I'm surprised they weren't outside his house with popcorn cheering him on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
