13-year old Staten Island Boy Commits Suicide After Bullying; suicide note says school officials did nothing to help

i remember when i was a kid i quoted some south park line about cartman's mom to my friend while we were standing near the school bully who was two years older than us (school went to 6th grade and we were in 4th) and my "friend" immediately went and told him i was talking about his mom since they were close enough to hear us talking (daniel you were such a little shit for this) as like a joke i guess? so i take off running because i know what's gonna happen next but i'm a chubby ten year old so i don't get far. i turn around and like a fucking movie scene the school bully, his two ugly friends (who were the shortest kid in grade six and the fattest kid in the entire school) are running after me with every single fucking guy in the sixth grade following them to watch what happens next. school bully, fatso, tiny and the sixth graders form a literal fucking circle around me and start kicking the living shit of me (somehow i didn't fall over till the end so i didn't take anything to the head) and i will never forget that in the middle of that fatso tries his hardest to put on a gangster accent (as a 12 year old white canadian child) and said "YO IF YOU FUCK WITH ONE OF US YOU FUCK WITH ALL OF US". i'm in the middle of getting my ass kicked and i still reflexively laughed at how hard it was to take that seriously.

anyway so they keep kicking and punching me but pretty quickly into it all the bell rings and people just kinda leave. i get knocked down by one last kick from the school bully who then leaves with the rest of the grade sixes and fatso and tiny. i get up and dust myself off and go back to class without saying a word because even though i don't know how to throw a punch yet i know i ain't no snitch.

two fucking minutes later school bully's teacher knocks on our classroom door and pulls me out of class to talk to me for "disrespecting nikki's mother" (his name was nicholas but he was french canadian trash so he didn't realize nikki was a girls name till he was a bit older). i then told her about how schoolbully literally kicked the living hell out of me with his ugly, goonish friends and the teacher just kinda lets it go and lets me go back to class (i should mention that this was an inner city school known for violence and massively incompetent or fresh out of university teachers so they didn't really do their jobs or anything when it came to this stuff).

ive mostly forgotten about tiny and fatso because they were just background people but i still have a really strong, adult hatred for the school bully. i don't see him anymore because he moved to a different part of the city but i've honestly managed kicking his head in about a hundred different ways.

last time he put his hands on me the 4th graders were playing soccer and him and tiny and fatso came and joined in because i guess they couldn't find anyone their own age to play a game with and every time he got near me he would shove me as hard as he could regardless of whether or not the ball was anywhere near us. finally i told him i was sick of him and shoved him back as hard as i could. tiny and fatso then instictively grabbed my arms (fatso) and legs (tiny) so their friend could punch me in the face unimpeded (i guess he taught them how to hold boys for him). i got a broken nose and tiny and fatso chased me to the office and tried to tell the principal it was all my fault. all the teachers and the principal knew they bullied me regularly and they usually formally blamed me for it but i was covered in blood and none of them had been hit a single time so she just told them to leave.

in the end the school bully had to write me an apology note and fatso and tiny were never punished for holding my limbs so someone could break my nose.

it fucked me up for a couple years but honestly you end up getting over it. i grew up to be the type of person who loves a good excuse to beat the living hell out of someone so maybe it all made me strong in the end.

nikki trudeau, if i ever see you again, i'll kick your fucking head in as a thanks for everything i learned from you.

i have no fucking clue why i just wrote all of this out and i imagine i will be deleting this tomorrow when i remember writing it.
