Stand Together. - December 3rd 2011, 12:58 AM

Hi everyone, I was just watching "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition". The episode that was on tonight was focused on a family who lost their beloved son/brother/nephew due to suicide. He took his life at just 11 years old because he was being bullied for being "too feminine". This young boy's mother, Sirdeaner Walker, has now dedicated her life to ending bullying of all kinds. With this, the head person of the show, Ty Pennington, and his team, started a movement called "Stand Together". It's basically a petition to take a stand against bullying and not bully anyone and try your BEST to help someone who's being bullied. All you have to do is sign your name, print out the sign with your number, take a picture of you holding the sign, and click join. Please, if you're against bullying, which I hope everyone is, join this movement and help bullying stop.

Here's the site: Stand Together

And here's me, this is an example of what you'd do:

You're all amazing. Don't let anyone bully you because you're all beautiful and amazing in every single way. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise. Spread the kindness and love to everyone you meet. Even if they're mean to you, let them know that it's not okay. Keep this movement going. As of right now, there are 19,500 people. Nearly 2,000 more people since I took my picture 15 minutes ago. Let's keep it going. Again, I love you guys.


"I have come to realize making yourself happy is most important. Never be ashamed of how you feel.
You have the right to feel any emotion you want, and do what makes you happy. That's my life motto."

It sounds like a good cause and hopefully you get many users from TH to join, unfortunately, I'm not going to be one of them.


I can rip you off, and steal all your cash, suckerpunch you in the face, stand back and laugh. Leave you stranded as fast as a heart-attack.
