White children most likely to be bullied
Times Online ^ | 2008-06-26 | Joanna Sugden

White children are much more likely to be bullied than any other ethnic group—reversing racial stereotypes surrounding playground abuse, Government research indicates.

Two thirds of children from white families say they had been bullied in the last three years but less than half of children of Indian origin make the same assertion.

Anti-bullying campaigners say white children are now in the minority in some areas raising their chances of being bullied.

Both of my kids are white and they were each bullied once at school when they were young. They did as I taught them and no one has bullied them since.

Bullies pick on sissies. It’s an easy mark, and it’s a tradition as old as civilization.

If you target a white kid, you have a good chance that the kid is the product of a liberal household. That kid is likely to be neutered and totally unable to defend him or herself.

This is no shock. Note to bullies. My kids have been taught not to start it, but don’t walk away from it.

Rule #1 - The teacher is always right, if there’s a conflict bring it to me.

Rule #2 - If someone else starts something, and you finish it, I’ll back you 100%.

Seems to work.

Anybody’s who’s different in any way gets bullied or teased by other kids. I went to virtually all white, all local schools my first nine years, and any time a kid of another culture or color showed up, they caught a pretty hard time, especially if they still had a thick accent. This included a white girl from Germany and a darker guy from Lebanon. When our schools finally integrated in 10th grade, the majority white kids (about 80 percent) caused much more trouble with the black kids than the other way around. And at the majority black high school, the white kids got bullied the most.

That’s just the way it is.

White kids get prosecuted for hate crimes when they protect themselves while others can chalk it up to generations of oppression from whitey lashing out subconsciously and thus its okay.

“And you have this on what authority?”

Reasoning. Try to follow along.
AlGore got nearly 1/2 the vote.
Same for John F’ing Kerry.

I submit that anyone that could vote for either of those clowns is liberal. If 1/2 of the people voted for them, that would leave a 50/50 chance a white kid is from a liberal home. Geography also plays into it.

And what of minorities? Why don’t they fit this mold? Well, blacks tend to vote democrat reflexively. It’s less of an ideological issue for them. And traditionally blacks don’t really turn out to vote, unless the candidate is black.

I made a generalization, yeah, you can prove it wrong in specific cases. I guess that makes you really bright?

Perhaps. What I am not so happy about, though, is that multicultural politicians are happy to give away our countries thus making whites a minority…

I wonder why the Feds Oh-Bama thread was pulled. America had better awaken. Over the last 25 years or more the Federal Government has covered up black on white crime now we find them covering up for Oh-Bama. Just like here where white Children are being bullied. Folks whites are being intimidated at every turn and our government is complicit.

No law of physics guarantees this. There are in fact some funny stories about black kids trying to bully Rocky Marciano when he was 11 or 12....

Sounds like our house. Even went so far as to take the boy out for a day of fun stuff when he was suspended for putting a bully in his place.

Cheers!

Good for you, and even better for him. Our country needs real men, good to hear you’re raising one.

This is another reason why I’m thinking about moving my family (4 daughters) from Texas to Montanna or the Czech Republic where I have ancestry. Even if you try to protect yourself you still can get in trouble.

My family was always taught to “cheat” in fights.

I was (am) a large guy, but was bullied by a large group of kids repeatedly at lunch (I ate packed lunches from home, long story) -— got behind one on stairs and shoved him down, then pummeled the shiite out of him.

Repeated, one at a time.

Eventually, I was left alone ‘cause the “Jew goes crazy”

In order for socialism or communism to take hold in the U.S. they needed more poor and uneducated so they imported them. I think the RATS got a wake up call when Reagan won by two landslides and decided to flood the country with the third world.

Yep, in my family we called the trouble you got in school for fighting a 3 day vacation! Never got into trouble for fighting, my parents knew I never started anything. After the last leader of group of bullies went to the hospital for 32 stitches to his head, school was surprisingly pleasant for a while.

“I think the RATS got a wake up call when Reagan won by two landslides and decided to flood the country with the third world.”

Aided of course, by weak Republicans like George Bush and outright RINOs such as McCain.

WHO will stand up to this leftist onslaught?

Along with that. We have plenty of white people who insist that “people of color” celebrate their race , culture and their uniqueness but OTOH whites be aracial, non-culture drones. They would like nothing better for whites to cease to exist. Either through some sort of genocide or rampant crossbreeding. Nirvana would be within reach if only...

Prety much. Except I did it from behind, then down a flight of stairs.

I was a big, gawky (as in I am now closer to 7 feet than 6), dorky Jewish kid in a largely Hispanic school.

One on one I could do OK. 20 to 1, I was toast.

So I started cutting guys from the herd.

“Ha, ha! I always said that people don’t kick mad dogs.”

One guy had me, and I bit his jugular (his throat). It was all I could get to. It was superficial, but he bled all over the place, and he thought he was going to die.

That was when it was determined I was “crazy.”

Screw “fair” in a fight.

The problem here is the article talks about “bullying” but does not talk about “bullies”. When this white guy went to an all white rural school fifty years, there were “bullies” but it was pretty much a singular thing. Any “bullying” was pretty much one on one. What is not stated in the article is how the “bullying” takes place. Chances are when the whites are being bullied they are encountering not one bully but a group organized by race or ethnicity. They are picking the white kid off when he is not in public or with a group of his friends. Whites are not used to or prepared to defend themselves by always traveling in gang organized by their race. When these whites are reporting that they are being bullied, I would be interested to know if the bullying is taking place when they encounter a group and are clearly outnumbered.

Kids from conservative households usually only get “targeted” once.

My People had Gilbert and Sullivan, Noel Coward, the Magna Carta, bagpipe music, the invention of the light bulb, the telephone, the assembly line, standardized parts, and a host of other things kids don't learn enough about today.

LOL, I have always said that I would like to trip out my car with a really nice sound system, put on some bagpipe music, and go cruising around the city, and see if anyone else would be allowed to tell me to turn it down. (Or sea shanties...some really kicking 18th Century, mens' voice, acappella sea shanties!)

I think that depends on where you live. Like the post above yours, these bullies travel in packs. And even if your kids has MMA or Boxing ability odds are highly likely - nowadays — that it’ll get turned around on your kid that they said or did something to provoke the bullying. All one of those kids has to do is claim they were called a name and your kid gets branded.

And even if you did defend yourself, these gangs will keep coming, probably with weapons.

This is how it is in most cities in 2008 America.

You've hit a big item that many posters haven't addressed. Gang grouping is promoted in the underclass and systematically depracated in white culture. Couple that with underclass underage weapons use and no notion of fair fight and you've got the perfect recipe for white abuse.

My youngest is in a high school where there are several gangs. They don’t mess with him for two reasons. He’s a nice guy who treats everyone with respect and he’ll knock your teeth out if you mess with him in the wrong way.

I doubt race has anything to do with it. I went to a pretty racially non-diverse school, and there were tons of white bullies that made my walks home pretty bad at times.

Bullied kids need to defend themselves. I spend years being bullied, in large part because my parents taught me to practice non-violence. Don’t fight, turn the other cheek, tell an adult.

Bullies feed on a kid who tries to walk away and tell an adult.

It only took one incident where I turned around, faced the bully and planted him on his backside.

Yikes, we must be related somehow! Nothing puts spring into your step like pipes of war!

Not really, but generalizations like yours most certainly don’t, either.
