“BOR was upset that the “fat kid” could have seriously hurt the bully”

The first time I watched the video I thought the little kid was fighting back for something that occurred before the filming started and the bigger kid was the bully.

I still don’t understand how a bigger kid could be bullied by a smaller kid physically.

Name calling, mental, and social bullying (which are often times more harmful in the long run) I can understand. How in the world do you let yourself get punched all the time by someone you can literally pick up and toss around like a rag doll?

Must be a personality thing.

Personality, yes, but also he’s been taught pacifism by his parents. To turn the other cheek. He’s been trying to do what his parents have told him to do. Hard to blame a kid for being obedient.

I’m 6 1/2 feet tall and have a HUGE skeletal frame. I was warned as a young teen-age to stay out of fights as I could, even in self-defense truly injure someone. When as a sailor I had the most boring SHORE PATROL duties because no one, even the drunkest, wanted to try me out. I’m thankful because I’m quite passive and happy about it.
Call me names, I think you are stupid, get physical and I am the one on my feet, and in trouble with the law.

Maybe because he didn’t want to smash the little bitch’s bones into the ground until he had no other choice but to do that.

Good for him. Had it been me, I would have knee dove him after he landed to drive my point home even further.

the first time i saw this (earlier in the week) i was impressed that the big kid (Casey, i think) didn't keep hurting the little punk after he dropped him... he dropped him and walked away... haha! i read someone's comment that said the little punk was walking all "bambi" afterward... i thought that was funny... they are both lucky that the big kid didn't drop the punk on his head...

BOR is correct the Bigger Kid could have seriously hurt the one dancing around like OBama, that be the bully, .......but he didn't. I believe that is more than can be said about BOR’s sexual harassment.
He is so tiresome.

If you watch the video, there is a kid that walks up to the fat kid in a threatening manner. These two are then separated by a third person.

I believe that it was this kid lurking in the shadows that was backing up the little kid.

It probably is a personal thing. When I was kid, I attended a Military school. Some bullying went on but not for long. We had one kid in our company like the big kid in the video. He had a personal problem where he would crap in his pants. Many kids picked on him all the time. Until.....some of us got together and protected him. It wasn’t his fault, he just had a problem. The kid turned out to be a really good guy and learned to stand up for himself once he saw us taking on the other kids. Some kids just don’t know how to fight....it takes something like this to show them that they can defend themselves.

Back in my fraternity in college one of the frat brothers was a 6’ 4” 320lb OT on the football team. He was the nicest guy around. Never looked to confront anyone. So one day this smaller guy tries to take advantage of him by pushing him more than once. The big guy just kept telling him to stop before he got mad. The little guy told him he did not have the guts to make him stop. Long story short, the smaller guy ended up thru the wall up to his chest out stone cold.

The little guy in this video showed a lack of experience in fisticuffs. When you hit a guy in the face, twice, with everything you got and he just stares back at you, that is the time to get out of Dodge, because you got big problems.

“I still don’t understand how a bigger kid could be bullied by a smaller kid physically.”

The smaller kid had a couple of friends with him, at least one of which was bigger.

The kid was bigger, no doubt, but my understanding was that the group had been bullying him for a long time.

The bigger kid reminds me of the kid in the Bad Santa movie. Big and afraid until he was pushed too far.

I thought the body language of the smaller kid was that of a smart-ass trying to prove something. The bigger kid gave him plenty of chances to avoid it -- it isn't like he retaliated after the first punch, or even the second one.

It looks to me like the little sh*t learned a valuable lesson, and I hope that the bigger kid, whose body language to me indicates that he was fully aware that he could cream, pulverize the little yapper the same way a St. Bernard could obliterate a chihuahua, but was inclined not to because of the unfair differences in size. The little sh*t, it looks to me, was taking advantage of the bigger kid's good nature and miscalculated.
