I was bullied.
A LOT.
Then one day I busted the shit bag in the face. We trade blows for no few number of seconds.
I never got bullied much after that.
Whoever says violence never solved anything needs to get his teeth rapped.
I wasn't physically bullied in school..due to one incident on the school bus. A kid that was 3 or 4 years older than me used to bully the very small kids horribly. He'd lost an arm in a farm accident, and used the pinchers on his hook to pinch little boys' ears until they cried. One day, he did it to my baby brother. I marched to the back of the bus and punched him. Of course, I got in trouble, not the older kid.
A couple days later, he sat right behind me on the bus. At one point, my books fell off the seat, and he decided to kick me in the head when I bent down to get them. I came over the back of the seat at him, slapped him 4 times across the face. I got in trouble again, but he never hit me or harrassed my brothers again.
The bigger they are, the more cowardly. It takes quite a coward to back down to a girl 4 years younger.
