Re: 10 year old girl in Illinois commits suicide over LGBT bullying - November 20th 2011, 07:32 PM

I smell several rats here:

1. Either I'm blind or there's no mention in the article of LGBT orientated bullying
2. If it is LGBT orientated bullying, then I find it very strange that aged 10 she would have identified herself as a lesbian, especially that the article says: "We have to do something with this, we cannot let her life be in vain, this is an opening to help others. This was not an isolated incident, it has been going on for years". "Years", being plural, I'd assume at least two, so going by facts stated she could have been as young as 8 when she identified herself as a lesbian (that's assuming she was bullied by straight kids, which would be the norm).
3. I find it strange that she would suicide so spontaneously. I'd guess there was something more to it than just bullying on its own. Perhaps she was somewhat mentally unstable... I mean, God only knows. I remember a movie were a 15 year old girl would tie a nose round her neck and stand on a chair alone in a room because she had some kind of fucked up fetish. It was not a porn movie (lol), one of those Poltergeist/Exorcist/Paranormal Activity type of movies. I'm just saying... it could even have been an accident. Nobody knows.

All that aside, it's never good news when someone kills themselves for whatever reason.


"I don't care about politics"
Then politics doesn't care about you either. Truth. You've got to make your voice heard, if you want to be listened to. But that's too logical for some people, so let me go a step further. Not making your voice heard, leaves other people free to hijack it by speaking on your behalf, even if they don't actually give a shit about you. That's politics. So, make your voice heard. That's not a quote from anywhere. That's just me.
