the bad and the good

Kids can be such terrible, terrible people.  Some kids love to bully as much as they can.  Some take a seventh grader, hold him down, and take out an eye because he's perceived to be gay.  In the school cafeteria.

And there are such complete little shits like these kids in Greece, New York, who verbally pummeled a 68-year-old bus monitor for over ten minuets reducing her to tears.

Too bad it takes a YouTube Clip or an outcry on social media to bring some responsibility to the schools and corrective actions upon to these kids.

But sometimes, the Internet can be made of awesome people too.  Like Max S: "I’m not sure why these kids would want to bully a senior citizen to tears, but I feel we should do something, or at least try.  She doesn't earn nearly enough ($15,506) to deal with some of the trash she is surrounded by. Lets give her something she will never forget, a vacation of a lifetime!"

He tried to raise $5,000 for her via indigogo.com. Online donations quickly rose to over $31,000.

Vacation for her, lifetime of their evil on the Internet for them. This will go on their permanent record.

Update: Shit has gone viral. She's booked on Anderson Cooper, CNN, ABC and NBC. And that "let's do something nice for her and start a vacation fund"? It's now over $220,000.
