Break the Cycle by Rogue Ranger

#understanding Anger is contageous, but so is friendship. It might take time, but every bully has a story and many times there is a cycle of abuse that needs to be broken. You can help! No matter how you yourself are treated, treat others with kindness and respect. After all, those may not be things everyone learns at home. Note: Monday 10/1 was World Day of Bullying Prevention and most schools will have a Freedom From Bullies Week this month and/or a Be Nice Week.

This has a great message. I like what you're trying to show here. But yeah, it is a little intense.

Every day, people go through things far more intense than is shown here, but the cycle needs to be broken. This version cuts out vio.lence or slurs (I never used profanity), so there's no reason for it to be flagged. Sometimes reality's not pretty, but it's still reality (even if it's cats).

I love the message you're trying to get across, it is great in theory, but it's alot easier said then done.. alot of the time trying to be nice to the bullies just makes it worse cause then they bother you even more. Then again, no one ever claimed that doing the right thing was easy right? :)

Absolutely amazing. Alot of your artwork has so many great messages. One can only hope the world listens.

i am very sorry to say that this is simply not always the case, some i know from EXPERIENCE that some bullies simply enjoy beating up smaller guys, if you tried the method you just suggested at my old school they would probably stab you with the pencil at break, purely for the hell of it, on several ocasions i had large groups of people throwing rocks at me! and all the peacefull methods did NOTHING!!! personaly i find it insulting that I go through hell, and then people treat it like its some kind of corny tv show from the 80's where in the end they all group hug and everything is allright, BUT THAT IS NOT HOW IT WORKS!!! I HAVE MORE EXPERIENCE WITH BULLIES THAN ANY HUMAN DESERVES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This reminds me of a song called Umgrateful by Escape the Fate. In the music video a kid in school gets beat up and dies. The bully goes home and gets beat by his dad who got in a fight at work. In the end the parents of the dead kid got a phone call saying their son is dead... (I cried after watching it D:) Also, that is a screamo song and most people think screamo music is a bad influence on kids.

Look guys and gals, the bullie in the 2nd pic is in the 1st one so, the bully is getting bullied by his dad. And by the way it was cute and very nice to say You can borrow mine! that was nice, noticed the t-shirt?

Well, if being nice doesn't work at first, then just be patient.
Most bullies are either insecure or are a part of this cycle here...
It takes time to watch it go into effect!
