So this kid posted this video back in August, and it's started to spread around the internet thanks to Anne Rice and George Takei. I really felt like sharing this.

+ YouTube Video

Blkrsn · 3rd Dec 2011, 10:05 PM

I just watched that

I feel so sorry for the kid. I hope he gets all the help he can :')

Shevanel · 3rd Dec 2011, 10:11 PM

Well that's kind of a night-ruiner. Brave of him to post a video like that for everyone to see though.

I want to hug him so badly. What an awful story.

Cookie34 · 4th Dec 2011, 07:21 AM

That's such an upsetting video to watch

but I admire his determination not to let those bullies win and also his strength to never give up.
Thank you so much for sharing it.

Saw this on Reddit earlier today.... then all of a sudden all my friends were reposting to FB! A follow-up!? Where did you find this? He's only got one video uploaded to his YouTube channel.

I was actually going to post this on here but you beat me to it. I cried watching this.

That's so sad, but Lady Gaga just tweeted about it and it's blowing up. Look at how fast the comments are scrolling in--can't even read them.

Of course, if you're fat, then you deserve to be made fun of.

Jonah's vid made me so sad. I picked up the guitar for the first time in months and wrote a song... makes me sounds really cheesy. But the vid made me so gutted for him. A 13 yr old should never me made to feel that bad.
