标 题: 伟大母爱:反Ohio州学校放纵学生针对儿子的仇视暴力
发信站: BBS 未名空间站 (Sun Feb 12 10:06:59 2012, 美东)
The shocking clip of Zach being viciously attacked in his Ohio classroom in
October will make you gasp in horror, but the incredible support of his mom,
Becky, will make you tear up.
After the attack, the school principal actually said to Zach, "I don't have
any other problems with any other gay students in this school. The problem
seems to be with you. What can we do to change you?"
The principal called Zach's mom after the beating, expecting her to take him
home. Becky would have none of that and instead insisted that the principal
call the police. Because that is what's supposed to happen when a crime
takes place.
"This is not going to go unpunished," she said. "It's not a bad school. It's
just not a good school for gay or lesbian children."
Good thing Zach has an amazing mom, who stood by her son and defended him
against bullies, some of whom were school officials.
Grab some tissues and see the video here:
I'd just like to add that the comments underneath the video clip display the
kind of subtle and not-so-subtle homophobia that led to Zach's beating.
"No one should be victimized the way this young man does, at the same time,
I feel that the way he dresses, the way he speaks, even his general
mannerism is almost an attempt to call out to people to bring attention to
his sexuality. No one should have to hide who they are, but there's no
reason to run down the streets screaming it either."
This commenter has it right: "I wish people would stop calling this bullying
. This was assault."
