Response to V. Liang

In response to Victor's quote about bullying, Victor L.

"Mistreating others verbally or by force is not only totally wrong, but is absolutely unreasonable. When I was being made fun of by a few people, I felt humiliated and extremely mad. I couldn't do anything since I wasn't brave enough, so I tried to play along and pointlessly laugh at myself. I think people bully others to make themselves feel better and to scare others into liking them so they don't get humiliated like the last person. I think a person's own anger makes them not think of what they are doing, and let out their rage on others."

                           This quote shows two different ways for bullying being a bad cause in children life. He explains that bullying is unreasonable and terribly wrong to mistreat people. In his example of being made fun of by a few people, he explains the feeling of being embarrassed and how the victim will feel extremely mad just from a simple verbal language. He explains the feeling of being trapped and not being able to do anything because the bully had a group of people making fun of a single person who is weak and helpless. Whenever in trouble, you play along, just as Victor did by laughing along with the bully which made him look more helpless. The reason for bullying is explained, to make the bully feel better about themselves and to use direct force to gain love and respect.
                           Explanation for anger is because of bullying and it makes the person forget what they are getting themselves into. As in, during the moment of bullying, you almost focus on nothing else except for that one movement to bully and disrespect someone weaker than you. When that person is bullying, they will force rage upon the helpless person that isn't involved but is just unluckily picked to be picked upon. For this reason, this quote from victor's blog has given me a perspective in the way bullying can enrage people due to the blank outs during the moment of bullying and also the one being bullied can be that unlucky person who just happens to show up first in the bully's eyes. Overall, the depth of bullying is shown as he explains the humiliation and embarrassment of laughing along as he is trapped in between everyone's eyes.
