"Casey the Punisher" Viral Video Teaches Good Life Lesson
Casey is a heavy set kid. Despite his size he's pretty mild mannered. Seems everyone picks on him a great deal and until the 42 second video clip, all Casey had ever done was asked to be left alone and walked away. But apparently the little punk just had to prove how tough he was. Casey took a couple good face punches, then he had enough. The body slam on the aggressor is priceless and well deserved.
There is a lesson here. Who is smart enough to grasp said lesson?
Don't "F" with folks, is the first lesson, especially folks ya don't know. Now from the history of Casey and the aggressor, they did know each other but clearly the bully didn't know Casey well enough to know that if sufficiently assaulted one can receive a concussion or worse. Look at the bully's face as near the end of the video he runs toward the camera. Bet he learned that lesson.
Some folks on the blogs are chiding both kids and especially Casey for the body slam. Yeah, real nice ya sissies! In the world I live, if one wishes to leave with all the teeth they came with, don't "F" with folks...if ya do ya might get hurt...or much, much worse. And in the quintessential example of my favorite admonition "once you throw the first punch, no matter what happens, it's your fault," I can relate to good old Casey. Once one is assaulted, no matter what happens the aggressor is wearing the responsibility, like it or not.
Some suggest the aggressor may have been severely injured - I sure hope the Hell so! I have no pity for the bully. My heart does break for poor Casey who as reports indicate, is a constant victim of bullying because he's a little heavy and mild mannered. All he wants is to be left alone, but no, their is yet another mouth over loading a narrow ass and we see how Casey dealt with it. Can one imagine poor Casey having to endure assault after assault? My heart truly breaks for this young man.
To run down the road of analogy and knowing full well I may be attacked for it, I see this as progressives who demand change with their "in your face" manners. Keep pushing kiddies. Sooner rather than later a "Casey" will educate the pushers. As a man I will try to avoid altercation, but there is a line...even I do not know where it lies specifically, but it's there and if crossed all Hell descends. Wanna be there when it happens? If you chuckle to yourself then confidently and arrogantly believe you do, you are a fool of monumental proportions.
Me and mine ARE Casey. We've asked to be left alone, but no, the aggressors just can't do that, now can they? They will continue to shove down our throats their demands...after all, they've told us they'll drag us "kicking and screaming." They want what they demand and are determined to get it by hook or crook. We've been assaulted in all manner, some even physical, yet no matter how much we ask to be respected and left in peace, there are the aggressors making threats, calling names and doing all they can to incite a response. Do the aggressors grasp the end result?
As I see it, it will happen. Someone, somewhere will have had enough, and when they respond, well if ya think it's been ugly up 'til now, ya ain't seen nothing yet. My advice to the aggressors is pick your victims very carefully. Clearly, based on Casey and the video, there is a line. No matter how full of themselves the aggressors are, when the line is crossed they will be the ones enjoying the body slam. Well, and of course I will enjoy it too because I love a good comeuppance.
Like I said, if one wishes to leave with the same number of teeth they arrived with, KNOCK IT OFF. Or, since clearly they think they know best, keep it up. Your day of reckoning is closer than ya know if ya mess with those who just wish to be left alone. Sometimes, and especially for the bullying hard heads, nothing except the most ardent and clear reply will do. I'm afraid I honestly am looking forward to that day, 'cause frankly I've had more than enough being pushed. Keep it up hard heads, keep it up. Casey is a comin' and whoa be upon the narrow asses when good old quiet Casey teaches the so desperately needed life lesson to those who believe themselves possessing some special right to shove what they want down the throats of others. Don't forget your cameras!

Post a CommentI can identify with Casey (as I'm sure, lots of other can as well). I was bullied myself as a kid, though it eventually faded away in my later years of high school. But all of us fantasize of doing exactly what Casey did... giving the bullying little punk a lesson he'll never forget. Now the bully is crying that "he was bullied too", and that "Casey started it all". Yeah, right, you rat-faced, eyebrow pierced little punk. On a sidenote, I didn't know this happened way back on the 16th. I just saw that video the day before yesterday and just finished a column on it last night! You're on the ball, Whip!
That bully deserved what he got and then some, Now I hear the mother of the bully wants an apology. HEL NO she has a child that is obvious a problem and now I hope he knows someone will not take it anymore enough is enough for these kids whos parents look the other way and want "sorrys" from the victim its about time something is done to defend themselves and as far as the mother not wanting the video spread all over the world to see her son get what is coming to him, well TOUGH it should be so people can see instead of getting picked on and the video being put out there to humiliate the kid who got bullied in the first place the bully is theone who deserves to be humiliated and feel ashamed!!!! "Casey the Punisher" GOOD JOB for standing up for yourself : )
Schools today have all sorts of policies and "plans" to help stop bullying, but although they have good intentions, they don't really offer good solutions. A bully is only under control when near an adult. When given the opportunity to get away with something, they will and punishing them afterwards isn't always possible if there's no witness or proof. My son has the instructions that if someone picks a fight with him, let them take the first swing, then do what he has to. Just as a parent cannot control every action their child does once out the door, bullies cannot be maintained just by punishments and policies. As for ppl who will harp on videos like this which show someone actually standing up for themselves? Bah! Wake up and smell the coffee! This video is reality, in that it actually shows REAL reality, not the so-called reality the ppl who make the policies think they're instilling. Good article!
Agnes, there's a lesson in your words. As bad as being expelled for fighting may be, I believe the damage to the psyche of the bullied is far worse. I agree with how you handled it entirely! If I had a kid being bullied I would advise the same. An ass whupping hurts far less than the damage to one's inner self from the bullying. And if I had a bully in my family I would bully them so they grasped how it felt. Good parenting skills you have there Agnes!
I would go to the school board if needed. I would call the local TV news..whatever, but my son was not going to get expelled. He later called me back and said everything would be ok...and my son would not get expelled. After that the kid never bother my son again.
A similar incident happened to my 14 year old son. Some kid kept bullying, picking on and hitting my son. At this age, I didn't think there was much I could do about it. I didn't like having to tell my son to fight, but the school couldn't do anything because it wasn't happening on school property. So I told my son that every time he saw this kid to just hit him, before the kid could hit him first. This kid was bigger and I knew my son could get hurt, but I told him he had to stand up for himself. My son is very passive, doesn't bother anyone or anything. He just wants to be left alone..but this kid wouldn't stop. One day I got a call at work that my son was caught fighting on school property. I thought the principal was talking about my younger son..nope it was my 14-year old. The principal said they would need to expel my son..I said nope..You know this kid is a bully...I told my son to fight that kid because he wouldn't leave hm alone. I would
Whippy, there is some of this "Casey" inside all of us. We continue to "take it" until we simply cannot take it any longer and we snap. While I do not advocate violence - I do support defending yourself. Casey defended himself and then, he walked quietly away. I hate the bullies in the world and they need to be stopped. cheers for the report, I hadn't heard about it.
The kid with the case of Little Man Complex wanted to prove himself, and just couldn't. Aww. His mouth wrote a check his ass couldn't cash. Ha. Lots of Little Man Complex in politics, too. As well as on sites like this one. I'm all for the non-violent approach anymore, too. But the little men get annoying. Don't they?
bullies suck, good for Casey
I'm with you, Whippy. The little jerk running off crying like a girl might even get a taste of how "bullying" feels.Casey has every right to protect himself from physical abuse, which is what that was.
