BULLYING A SUPREME ACT OF COWARDICE - Amanda Todd's Story FULL VIDEO



Everyone makes a choice, yours was to taunt and bully Amanda. Her suicide is the result of your cold, heartless and cowardly act. Unfortunately there are no laws, YET, that will punish you for your actions but you will live with this vile act for the rest of your miserable lives.

What you have done is a true act of cowardice. Anyone who feels a need to motivate friends and acquaintances to gang up on one lonely individual is afraid to go it alone and must hide in a crowd of other sick people like themselves.

It is not up to you to stand in judgement of your peers. It is my hope that you and all those who read this, including her friends, feel guilt for their actions and their inaction. I suggest that those who bullied Amanda seek help because you need it.

Our governments at all levels have failed Amanda but in particular our Federal Government and in particular Vic Toews. Amanda is not the first young person to suffer the effects of peer pressure and torment at the hands of bullies but Minister Toews would rather be reactive than proactive. It is time that we not only enact laws to punish those who commit bullying, cyber bullying or the inciting of bullying of any kind but more than that it is up to parents to instill in their offspring compassion and understanding that bullying is hurtful and unnecessary.

I say to all young people, please do not allow a friend to inspire you to act in a vile and hurtful way but say "NO, It's wrong". Be your own person and dare to be different than everyone else.
