Example - The murder of Sophie Lancaster occurred in the United Kingdom in 2007. The victim, along with her boyfriend, Robert Maltby, was attacked by a number of males in their mid-teens while walking through Stubbylee Park in Bacup,Rossendale, in Lancashire. As a result of her severe head injuries she went into a coma, never regained consciousness, and died thirteen days later. The police said the attack may have been linked to the couple wearing gothic fashion and being members of the goth subculture.
Five teenage boys were later arrested and charged with murder. Two of them were convicted of murder and sentenced to life imprisonment. The other three were convicted and jailed for grievous bodily harm. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murder_of_Sophie_Lancaster)
There was no reason to do that to her and her boyfriend, but stupid, arrogant, people thought so. Society seems to think bullying is OK. Maybe they'd think differently if their victims fought back?
Until then, I personally, will stand up for those being bullied.
..oh, end enjoy the video.
