Nanaimo students will wear pink today, along with tens of thousands of British Columbians, to show they will not tolerate bullying.

As part of a provincewide campaign, Wednesday has been recognized as a day to don pink to deliver the anti-bullying message.

Wonderful. This just gives the bullies more targets to pick out.

The most effective protest against bullying is, and always will be, punching the bully back.

Wow. Everyone got made fun of at school. serious bullying is a problem, but this kind of event seems ridiculous.

We all got made fun of for what we aore. And maybe it WAS a stupid shirt!

Liberal logic is always hilarious, as long as its not you getting your head kicked in.

Fight back! Beat the crap out of the bully and make him wear pink. Bet that would stop it!

Yep, Nothing says ‘please dont beat me up’ than wearing pink.

These are probably the same geniuses who wear red when riding a bull.

Why does the liberal mind not reject this as somehow sexist?

Except that according to current school discipline policies, defending yourself gets you in trouble.

can’t punch him back anymore. you get expelled, sued, and might become the victim of a gang attack after school.

I don't think this will work too well. A bunch of fags wearing pink in a left coast school,
isn't going to stop the "bullies" picking on overbearing fags in the East coast school 4000 miles away.

There was no such movement when kids got beat up for wearing glasses, or being fat, or being Polish, or...

But now the lavender mafia wants all kids to pretend to be gay for the day “in unity”.

I wonder if the pink shirts are Oxford shirts with the “fag tag” in the back.
