Thing of beauty. This guy won't be able to sit for a week after a butt-kicking like that. |

Her size has nothing to do with the quality of her work.........this jerk was way off base when he criticized her weight. I'm impressed with how she responded!!!!! |

It's nice to see so many more people who are willing to stand up to bullies instead of taking things lying down.

I kept waiting for her to tear up just a little and she did not! She is an inspiration! |

The point that stuck out to me the most was not a point at all; she didn't cop any excuses about her weight, but acknowledged it and continued with her rebuttal. IMO, that told me she was letting the ahole know her weight was none of his business and not provide him with anymore ammunition.

What she had to say about bullies in general was so true. I witnessed lots of bullying as a boy at school. I saw some awful things. It still shames me I didn't stand by the side of the bullied. I guess I was more concerned about it happening to me if I stepped in.
I talked to my two sons about bullying. I explained to them it is cruel, and unfair. Making someone's life a misery is not funny. My eldest son was always big and stronger than other kids in his class. He did stand up to the bullies in defence of others. My youngest son told me of things he witnessed. He made me proud that at such a young age, he would stand up for others.
