Everyone is different. That is how life is. And bullying someone for not being the same is wrong! It is NOT a part of growing up. It is NOT a right of passage. Bullying kills, and has killed. It is past time for things to change. The bullying must stop now!

The Williamsville School District cannot allow their students to be bullied for any reason - white, black, gay, straight, tall, short - it must stop. And the bullies at the North High School homecoming must be punished for their remarks of hatred - "You're better off dead!," "We're glad that you're dead!," etc. - towards the recently deceased Jamey Rodemeyer.
