Also, fuck all those people who vilify anti-bullying measures which protect students based upon their sexual orientation. Fuck. You. People.

Sadly I don't think they care.

Some of them may even be proud.

At least some of the bystanders will probably feel guilty and maybe in the future they'll be more likely to stand up in some way and intervene when witnessing bullying and/or homophobia.

This is really terrible and sad. I hope that the federal legislation is successful (although I won't hold my breath)--I at least wish that more states and school districts would enact strict anti-bullying laws--and make sure that the kids and parents know about them (otherwise the laws will not be useful until it's too late).

Things like this bring back bad memories of high school.

same for me, except I was mostly bullied when I was younger and in elementary/middle school

it makes me so upset, and also thankful that I have great parents and that I had some good friends outside of school...but going to school was hell for a long time
