Twig-like Bully Foolishly Picks on Zangief Jr...
...and gets his ass handed to him! Sorry if this has been posted already, didn't see anything. I don't think there's anything wrong with what he did. Ended the fight and walked away. Video in the link below...

I was the fat kid. I don't recall lashing out like that. I took the other path. I stayed so quiet that I think other kids just crossed their fingers I would spare them during the Columbine-style school shootout.
I sleep tight knowning that the kids who picked on me are now telemarketers and retail store clerks and shit.

^ If you're referring to the bully, the official statement from the school is that he was only "grazed" with no major injury at all.
edit: the actual quote is:
"Both students in a fight at the school shown on the Internet have been suspended ... the only injury sustained was a grazed knee."

There was a kid like that (the instigator) back when I was in Jr. High. He used to annoy boys much bigger than him until they reacted physically like that. I think he had some kind of masochism fetish. You can see this kid in the video is smiling when he gets up.

Sheese, I thought suspension in the States was somewhat harsh:
http://www.tmz.com/2011/03/15/austra...ol-suspension/
TMZ spoke with a family member of one of the kids ... who told us the bully (the 12 year old) was suspended for twenty-one days following the incident and the kid being bullied was suspended for 4 -- since he was violent as well.
We're also told the kid on the receiving end of the vicious body slam did not suffer any serious injuries ... despite the fact he came off the ground with a severe limp.
Sources tell us the kid who was being bullied is handling the media attention surprisingly well -- and is "very happy" he's received so much support.
