People cannot be too nice. White community needs to make some noises, voice a concern. Let's call racist a racist. Put these racist bullies on social media, shame their families, and people should lose jobs over this!

You're right, and the goal is to END racism, not change the people who deal with it. The boy is nine years old, it's no less sad cuz he's a little white boy.

The sad part is we inherintly bully those minorities be they Anglo, Asian/middle eastern, AA, or Hispanic. It's in our human DNA to pick on the different ones when we out number them. I'm not sure how we change that, it's a power thing. Nobody is immune, and nobody has the rights to do it.

Anyway, sad story, I hope it's not true but I've heard worse so I'm going to asume it's valid.

The world is such a different place depending who you are. Just such a sad situation.

You haven't been paying attention for the last few years.

Sorry to pee in your corn flakes, but the "R" word is becoming a pretty blunt weapon, as the result of y'all using it so indiscriminately. *yawn*

Nobody deserves to feel bad for being born a certain color.

"Reverse" racism is a made up term, Racism is racism.

Definition of racism:

“Prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism directed against someone of a different race based on the belief that one's own race is superior”.

…Based on the belief that one’s own race is superior.

I see no exceptions based on historical faults, real or alleged. And the above quoted definition includes every kind of hateful behavior, regardless if he/she who commits it is part of a minority or a majority.

Thus racism is simply racism. Placing another word in front of it doesn’t make it less so.

Moral of the story is, don’t be an ******* to other people for arbitrary things like their skin color.

A 9 year old little boy committed suicide, for what? for the color of HIS skin. Let's get real.

All these racist bullies need to pay. Period. I don't mean to put words in your mouth, but SOME people think there should be a double standard for the racists. lol minority racist = Oh, they are just expressing their anger because these are historically oppressed people. white racist = Let's shame them, put them on social media, make them lose their job, put them in jail, etc etc.

No, people are sick and tired of this double standard non sense.

As a result, we create a whole damn generation of snowflake who would throw a hissy fit simply because somebody came up to him or her and said, "Where are you from?" But when it comes to a 9 year old white boy committing suicide, it is either "I don't believe it happened" or "so? you are only interested in this story because it is about reverse racism."

Yeah, pretty much most of the time I see "reverse racism" it's someone trying to make excuses for people acting racist as if the implication is that they aren't responsible because someone else started it.

ESPECIALLY ironic when considering that "asia" has some seriously pervasive racism throughout.

So sad. He was a beautiful boy.



Wonder why his parents didn't remove him from the school if they weren't doing anything about the bullying.
