Strange question perhaps.I was walking earlier in a small village with my freind who is in recovery from cancer,her head is shaved and it takes coaxing to get her out and about.A car drove past and some chavvy looking lads shouted out "ugly bitch".
I felt so angry on her behalf,has anyone else ever been yelled at or abused by a group of kids/adults for no reason?

Yes.
Hardly surprising in this country.

In my teenage years, people passing in cars regularly enjoyed reminding me that it was time to get my hair cut, that was nice of them. :rolleyes:
Many of them also liked to recite "I want to be a hippy and I want to get stoned" as I passed by.
They were outraged that I would dare to look different than everyone else.

I was bullied as a teenager for various reasons - i was an easy target because i was shy and didnt have the guts to say or do anything back. In answer to your question ... yes, even though i'm now in my thirties every now and then i'll get caught out of the blue with someone targeting me similar to your friend. It can, if i let it, take me right back to those earlier days. I have learnt over the years that it is usually me drawing this experience in; it's usually when i'm feeling crap about myself or having an insecure day. People pick up on this energy. The key is to look at your reaction to the experience. It can tell you a lot about where you are sitting and what you still need to work on.
In my youth, yes a lot at school. Life was a living hell for me, in many of my school years. Nowadays I am far more secure in myself, that things like this wouldn't bother me. I once had a very very thin skin indeed. I walked into infant school, wide open energetically. It didn't make me lash out in reaction, like most Boys did. Instead, I quietly took it right into me and let it quietly hurt me greatly for some reason, with it staying there and mounting that it then began destroying me from the inside out when I was around 17. Luckily I came out the other side, with very close attempts to end it all. Now I have a good defense (from understanding) which chooses not to take things like that in.
Previously I had taken it all in by 'choice' (without realising) perhaps out of some feeling that maybe they were right in what they said. They weren't right in what they said. I see that now. I now know that in 95% of cases it says absolutely everything about the people saying it, and not about the person they are throwing it at, and that is part of the shield. Once this understood, why would someone take something to heart that wasn't true? For all the hell I went through, it has made me who I am today. It is for this reason that I 'now' see incidents like this as those many blessings that were in disguise. They are incidents we learn something very valuable from. Those lads were probably sent by life (along with the cancer) to test your friend in similar ways, no matter how horrible it may have seemed at the time. Nevertheless, I think the reaction of anger is fully understandable if your friend was hurt by those comments. We can't hand our understanding to others in incidents like this, and if she was hurt it is understandable to feel compassion for her and annoyance.

Excellent reply there noesis. I too was bullied, for a few years in my early teenage years..I remember going to my mum and she told me to "turn the other cheek, they will soon get fed up.."..well they didn't, wasn't until I finished in that school and moved on, it didn't follow me. I was also shy and did not fight back, so the bullies had a field day ! Funny how you hear stories of kids being bullied, they go from school to school, to school and the bullying seems to follow them around..so it's not the bullies that are the problem, it's the kids not fully dealing with those issues inside of them, hence why the bully is attracted to a victim..and which is why I completely concur with your words...

If you don't deal with a situation, if follows you around, because it is something you have to work on. I say, if something someone else does really bothers you, it's your stuff...if someone acts a certain way and it doesn't bother you, it's their stuff..(in a nutshell..)
I had random abuse thrown at me once, when I was going out with this guy and someone shouted "what u doing with that ugly..b*****d..."..well, yes, he was ugly...they were right !...:D..

It's important to remember that all bullies are real cowards, stand up to them they'll back down, no matter how big they are, I know that from experience.
All bullies are cowards, they either pick on people when they are in a group, or they pick at much weaker person ;)
The answer is to stand up to them at any age, bullies don't have a specific age.
They were outraged that I would dare to look different than everyone else.
That's the magic key in most cases, isn't it. It's all about them. People who 'appear' to be the most gobby and tough are usually the most insecure and terrified deep down, and the insecure and terrified congregate in groups because of this, and seek out targets in a desperate attempt to deflect attention off of them and get validation from others. Being different in my youth, drew the kind of reaction from others that you speak of there. As mentioned above, I took their words as truth for some reason. Now i'm very content in my different-ness, and I find that in my adult life this is interestingly attracting praise from others, for having the inner security to go with what feels right for me, and not what others think i should be doing. It's not a tense defiant stance, but a very content and peaceful okayness with not needing other people's approval. I don't even particularly see it as anything that is a big deal. It's our birthright to be as we feel. I see so many people living other people's lives from big things to little things like how they cut their hair or what they wear or even eat. How horrible, living according to someone elses subtle (or not so subtle) dictations! Now I see all the early stuff was all part of the game. I couldn't be content in myself today without all those horrible childhood experiences. Yin and Yang. To everything - turn, turn, turn. There is a season - turn, turn, turn. And a time for every purpose under heaven.

It's like this wierd form of respect...if you stand up to someone they kind of "respect you" but if you are "yes sir..no sir...etc..." or just take things lying down and don't fight back, they have zero respect, hence you are a target for their distaste...??
I have also seen this happen in all walks of life, the workplace is a classic example...I have seen others get on far better than me because they take no c**p..whereas I was always the "yes sir.." person..it got me NO WHERE..but it's something I have learned alot from, a hell of a lot from indeed !

I was tied to a tree once at school and attempted to be set on fire. The problem was all they had was a lighter, and it was raining. I remember breaking the tree they left me tied to off, and walking with this massive tree attached to my back through the main school area. :(
Does that count as bullying!? :eek:

Yes it's classic, you respect them they disrespect you, they'll eat you alive, very true, yes the key is to stand up to them, even if it means you'll lose your job, sue the bastards.
I don't take C*** from anyone, I respect people, but I won't allow anyone to step on my toes.
Some people will respect you if you respect them, others you have to pin them to the wall and show them that you are not afraid of them not one bit.
The slightest weakness you show, they'll exploit it, because like Void said deep inside they are insecure and cowards, so to deflect the attention away from them, they pick on a smaller person or when they are in a group.
To show their muscles against a smaller or weaker person

That counts as an attempted murder, they should be jailed, and if it happened within the school premises, the people who run the school should be found guilty of negligence.

Very well said there adbasque I noticed time and time again, because I was the nice, sweet one, I would be treated like..u know what, I suppose because I did not want conflict, I wanted to quietly get on with stuff, keep my head down, etc...even if it meant my bosses walking all over me. It seemed if boundaries were set by staff members, the bosses reacted favourably to them, but because I always wanted to please..(:rolleyes:) and therefore had no boundaries, they would walk all over me. I remember one boss, he was testing me out from the moment I started, he would bring out work for me to do at say 5.15 when my finish time was 5.30...so being the good little newbie, and again, wanting to look good to him, I would happily oblige..but then it got stupid, he would have me there later and later (with no offer of overtime payment, mind you...:mad:)..until one day when it became so inconvenient for me to stay late, I said I really could not stay later any more after 5.30 (my mum was ill and I had to get to the hospital for visiting)..he stopped taking the p**s and never bothered me again after that..I also remember the first week I started he got me to go to the shop and get him a sandwich for his lunch in time for him when he got into the office..other people were perplexed, he never asked anyone else to do that before..anyway, the hours went by and by the end of the day he still had not offered to reimburse me (this guy was a millionaire..btw..)..I asked other staff members...what should I do..ask for the money, get it from petty cash..they shrugged their shoulders..so I eventually asked him forthe money back..he acted all "oh, sorry.." with a annoyed look on his face....he never asked me to get him a sandwich again...:mad:..he was testing me, if I had not asked him, he would have continued to get me to pay for his lunch !!

In my opinion, when you find yourself the victim of random abuse, you should NOT let yourself get overcome with fear, hate, anger, despair, anxiety, sorrow. Treat it as a test of your strength of love.
My mate a grown man of about 55 has one of those faces that people (especially kids) want to call him names (he is one of those people who look like they are permanently smiling when in fact he isnt lol). He has ALWAYS got random abuse thrown at him. He used to come over and talk to me about music and stuff (cos that's what he's in to) and I would give him moral support so that he wasnt alone in the fight (cos people pick on apparent loners), and he would tell me how this bunch of grown men would abuse him (he wasnt scared, it just pissed him off), they would call him a silly old cunt as he walked past their garden (they would all be stood outside like in the cartoon "King of the Hill"). Anyway, I just said to him to say something back to them, cos that is what I would likely do. Anyway, he went a step further and said "come on then", and he chased them all into their garden and they never bothered him again. Sometimes you gotta fight.
I used to get very angry if anyone randomly abused me and I would want to fight. But these days I tend to chat with the abuser and they sort of become friendly towards me. I calmly tell them stuff (or I ask them questions), and we get on ok then. And they learn.
When I see a gang of youths in the distance and I have to walk past them (it can be intimidating sometimes), I just think that I love them cos they are my fellow man and have been manipulated, and i walk past them with love in my heart and it seems to help. It's the Law of Attraction. If you have fear in your heart it causes LOTS AND LOTS of problems.
Bullying raises its ugly head in many differant forms. Some bullys have low self esteem issues, victimizing seems to make them feel better about themselves. I used to use humour to diffuse situations where a bully might be attempting to intimidate me. They're not usualy very bright people.

Well it's the law of the jungle, played out by humans.

It's how most of humanity operates, and people get others off their back.
But at what cost? Great cost, I say. Great cost.

You did well, don't let anyone walk over you no matter who he is, you don't owe anything to anyone, you are a free person, you have the same exact rights as your boss, even if you work for him.
He needs you as much as you need the job, you are not his or anybody else's slave.
How do you think he became a millionaire? Is by being tight, stingy and selfish
;)
And never do extra time before discussing the pay first.
They pretend to be too busy, they pretend to forget, they try not to mention the money as if you are expected to do extra time without pay
Don't be fooled.

As for bullying, I remember one time as a kid this punk was picking on a much smaller child by lightly batting him on the head with a plastic whiffle ball bat. I remember becoming enraged, grabbing the bat out of the brat's hands, and telling him "lemme show you how to do it right!" before whacking him across the chest and back two times. Maybe I overreacted, maybe I sunk to his level, but he ran home crying he was going to get his mom (stereotypes, sometimes the shoe fits).
Also, the little kid thanked me which, to me, kind of validated the whole experience.
I did have one experience with workplace bullying, which was at a Wal-Mart incidentally. I was stocking paper products and my routine was to stock first then "front shelves" (straighten them) later. The manager comes up, broom in hand, and snarkily asks why I'm not fronting as I go. I explain that I like to stock first then go up and down the aisle fronting. Then with no warning he just takes that broom of his and knocks a bunch of product off the shelves and onto the floor. He then tells me that's not how we do things and I better start fronting as I go. I just took off from where I was standing, arm extended, and knocked every product I could off the shelves. Paper had two aisles so I ran over to the next aisle and did it there to. He comes around with a shocked, stupid look on his face and I told him he could front it and walked out.
Sometimes you don't even have to get violent...just counter the ridiculous with the sublime.

A few years ago I recall a random incident where I was driving down main street with my car windows open. In a bit of slow moving traffic I passed a car going the other way and suddenly for no reason the young lady driving that vehicle pointed to my car and insulted it and of all things, my fuzzy steering wheel cover. That was to say the least, very strange.

A couple of years ago, it was a lovely day so my son and I decided to have a walk along the canal to feed the ducks. Some lads sitting drinking on the opposite bank started shouting obscenities at us for absolutely no reason, they were calling us cun*s and all sorts, they even started walking towards the bridge to cross over to our side. I got scared then and we ran away. My son was 8 at the time and was badly shaken by the whole thing.

They had some fat piped, spoiler clad, chav car, just the thing a 12 year old boy likes. He was looking at it as he walked past, and one of the guys saw him looking and shouted, 'What the FCK are Ye Lookin at Ya Ginger Cnt, FCK OFF!'
He's 12 years old ffs.

Strange question perhaps.I was walking earlier in a small village with my freind who is in recovery from cancer,her head is shaved and it takes coaxing to get her out and about.A car drove past and some chavvy looking lads shouted out "ugly bitch".
I felt so angry on her behalf,has anyone else ever been yelled at or abused by a group of kids/adults for no reason?
Yer me! 20 odd years ago and still going…Ever-since I moved next door to someone in the U.K who I rarely spoke with but somehow she found problems with me. Apparently I was supposed to be some kind of trouble maker who went around making things up…The thing was and still is…I’m a reclusive type of person who doesn’t normally communicate with a lot of folk (besides you guys now)…Just my family and one trusty friend is all I associated myself with so for me to fit the trouble-maker / roaming liar description was so ludicrous it was somewhat laughable.
However! That didn’t stop the neighbours’ followers attempting to paste me with the description that they wanted me to have so I went through the slating names of being labeled a cow, a stupid bitch, a nutter, a liar, a man? a lesbian? (Even though I was married with kids) and then came the pebbles thrown at the window, dead chicken on my gate and then the builders nonsense via cowboy jobs when-ever I paid for work to be done at my home, creepy silent phone calls from a guy who would only speak when my young daughter answered the phone and who’d say my daughters name in a creepy voice with creepy background music.
I was literally sent to Coventry by the neighborhood…So for a whole year my children didn’t have anyone else to play with which was sad for them and for me (soul destroying as I blamed myself for their predicament) but reflecting back now… in a way it was also a blessing when I think of the nasty buggers that were around.
Although I did attempt to say a cheery hello to some of the town folk I was often met with a snigger or given the turned back treatment for my efforts so I stopped trying.
Anyhow! I’m embarrassed to admit this but I had a nervous break-down at my doctors’ practice where-upon I poured my heart out to the doctor and staff. I was given sedatives and basically told to go away with a referral to another type of doctor…Yup I was obviously crazy but the day after my doctors’ visit I was forced to venture outside to hang some washing up on the clothes line and as I pegged out the clothes, a car pulled up outside my house where-upon a man shouted out the window of the car ‘Cry baby Looney”…It was as if someone knew about my visit with the Doctor and what I’d confided to him which was odd because I always believed that what-ever I told a doctor was supposed to be confidential? Maybe it was just a coincidence and I was just being paranoid…Maybe!
Skip a few months and my oldest child was now being bullied at junior school…Mostly by two brothers who said they wanted to kill my daughter. I reported the bullying to a deputy head teacher who asked my daughter “What had she done to make the boys want to hurt her?” The teacher (A teacher who in later years was convicted for murder) basically turned the incident around to make it look as though my daughter was at fault.
Yup why didn’t I move away from all that nonsense? Because I was tied to a buyer’s contract with the council so I did the next best thing, I rented my home out to an elderly Aunt and I moved overseas with the husband who was sent to work on an island Military base (Iberian Peninsula area) for two years. Every thing was okay and my family was doing well for nearly a year until the teachers and some of the students started acting strange with my girls. My girls! The eldest one mostly began to experience bullying and destruction of her property and when I complained to a teacher I was told by the teacher that she preferred the children who showed spirit?...A bad thought ran through my mind about picking up the teachers’ handbag and dumping it in the sink full of water just to test if she’d like my spirit but I didn’t…Being a shy person I just walked out of the meeting, fuming but I said nothing in retaliation.
Not long after that meeting with the teacher, a native girl (whose father worked as a customs Officer) entered the Military Base and she attacked my daughter and the girl wouldn’t let my daughter go. My younger daughter sought out my husband who attempted to intervene in the fight by separating the girl from my daughter’s hair. To which my husband was arrested for assault charges and he faced two years in jail if found guilty. Witnesses to the incident were told to keep their mouths shut by the Police and my husband nearly ended up in jail but fortunately we had a good lawyer who discredited the Police and their made-up story.
After that incident I took my daughters back to the U.K and our old home hoping that the old troubles over there would be done with. My oldest daughter was greeted in her new school by some teens who lived around the corner from us…They wanted to be friends with my daughter and they invited her out with them during the evenings…I of course was wary about the sudden friendship of these neighbours and I was wondering if there was a motive behind their sudden change of behavior but my daughter being naive thought that they were just being nice…Aye! My worst fears came true when the little shits lured my daughter out to a park one night and they attempted to slit her throat with a knife however my daughter fought back and one of the so-called friends needed hospital treatment…My husband called in the police but no further action was taken due to lack of evidence and witness’ so once more my daughter didn’t receive justice and she continued to have problems with the bullying.
Around the same time that the troubles with the eldest daughter was occurring my youngest daughter was having problems with her health…A biopsy taken from the spinal cord had left my daughter in great pain and unable to walk for months. The doctors informed us that my daughter had a tumor and that she had ten years to live.
In the meantime I was having problems with a builder who was renovating a neighbour’s house…The builder would block our car inside our driveway and he’d make us late for doctor’s appointments etc. The builder even had the nerve to question my one and only friend about the reason why she was visiting my home? This builder also damaged parts of my house and laughed about it…Anyhow! Due to his stupidity I found out that that builder was the brother-in-law of a receptionist who worked at the doctors’ office where I had my nervous breakdown a few years ago…Paranoid and Crazy eh! Like heck as like.
Back to my daughters…The husband and I needed the next ten years to be happy memorable ones so we immigrated back to the place where my youngest daughter was born, Australia.
The initial start of our new life in Australia was good as the folk were very friendly and welcoming. My children found some friends and life was looking rosy until my younger daughters’ new doctors / surgeons attempted to remove the tumour which the UK doctors had stated that she had. However! Apparently the UK doctors had lied about my daughters’ condition and from what I can only surmise is that they lied to cover their own butts…Or they’re just really sick, immoral people themselves…Or both....
My daughter is now a Paraplegic and completely dependant on others as well as being wheelchair bound forever. Not only that but the folk who were nice to my children, were beginning to back away from my family like we were lepers or something? A woman who I didn’t know and I’d never met before walked past me when I was shopping one day and she called me an English nut?...Me the reclusive person who rarely spoke and had never talked about my past troubles with those that it didn’t concern…The most that I’d uttered to my new neighbours was a pleasant Hi and a Bye and now I’m identified as an English nut?...Was it just a coincidence and was I really being paranoid now?? Like how do folk presume to know me when I don’t know them???
Anyway! My eldest daughter also had problems with a male friend who suddenly decided to tell her that his family knew our old neighbours in the U.K…It was a really strange thing for the friend to say as we had never spoke about the ex- neighbours and also the lads family never came from the UK (Well maybe on a convict ship once-upon a time) and definitely not from the area that we came from so what was going on was completely baffling but without a doubt my family were being targeted for crap again.
Well to cut a longer account short…
Yes we still receive the nonsense from folk that we don’t know and have never met before like the guy who asked me how many points will he get if he runs over my (disabled) daughter. Or the car full of hoons who drove past me when I was sitting in a car park and they motioned a strangled throat threat along with a two finger salute.
Yup! That’s how things are with folk…Nasty buggers when they wanna be...:(

Yer me! 20 odd years ago and still going…Ever-since I moved next door to someone in the U.K who I rarely spoke with but somehow she found problems with me. Apparently I was supposed to be some kind of trouble maker who went around making things up…The thing was and still is…I’m a reclusive type of person who doesn’t normally communicate with a lot of folk (besides you guys now)…Just my family and one trusty friend is all I associated myself with so for me to fit the trouble-maker / roaming liar description was so ludicrous it was somewhat laughable.
However! That didn’t stop the neighbours’ followers attempting to paste me with the description that they wanted me to have so I went through the slating names of being labeled a cow, a stupid bitch, a nutter, a liar, a man? a lesbian? (Even though I was married with kids) and then came the pebbles thrown at the window, dead chicken on my gate and then the builders nonsense via cowboy jobs when-ever I paid for work to be done at my home, creepy silent phone calls from a guy who would only speak when my young daughter answered the phone and who’d say my daughters name in a creepy voice with creepy background music.
I was literally sent to Coventry by the neighborhood…So for a whole year my children didn’t have anyone else to play with which was sad for them and for me (soul destroying as I blamed myself for their predicament) but reflecting back now… in a way it was also a blessing when I think of the nasty buggers that were around.
Although I did attempt to say a cheery hello to some of the town folk I was often met with a snigger or given the turned back treatment for my efforts so I stopped trying.
Anyhow! I’m embarrassed to admit this but I had a nervous break-down at my doctors’ practice where-upon I poured my heart out to the doctor and staff. I was given sedatives and basically told to go away with a referral to another type of doctor…Yup I was obviously crazy but the day after my doctors’ visit I was forced to venture outside to hang some washing up on the clothes line and as I pegged out the clothes, a car pulled up outside my house where-upon a man shouted out the window of the car ‘Cry baby Looney”…It was as if someone knew about my visit with the Doctor and what I’d confided to him which was odd because I always believed that what-ever I told a doctor was supposed to be confidential?

Strange question perhaps.I was walking earlier in a small village with my freind who is in recovery from cancer,her head is shaved and it takes coaxing to get her out and about.A car drove past and some chavvy looking lads shouted out "ugly bitch".
I felt so angry on her behalf,has anyone else ever been yelled at or abused by a group of kids/adults for no reason?
I go for a jog 3 or 4 times a week and often get screamed at by passengers in cars that go past me.
Funnily enough, it's quite often fat cunts shouting at me that I've eaten too many pies. I'd like to see them run 2 miles in less than 13 minutes.

I was a bully, I shouted abuse at people. Not random people but people who I had singled out. I got plenty of torment also.
All of it was rooted in fear.

Oh my God. That is truly horrible. :eek: Tell her she is beautiful for me. :)
I've had all kinds of things thrown at me, but the 2 I remember the most were from mentally ill people.
I was at a public phone when some schizophrenic (?) or coked up ran at me and started SCREAMING at the top of his lungs in my face. He was shouting, swearing, and yelling everything under the sun. I had never seen the guy in my life. He must have thought I was Hitler. Or Satan. Or his ex. :p
Security guards in the mall complex came running up to see what was happening by then he was gone. I was absolutely freaked, as I didn't know if he had a weapon, or what.
Another time, some crazy looking dude started mumbling sexist put downs while I was waiting in the grocery checkout. I basically stayed quiet, than went crazy on HIM. :p I got in a few snide comments (my specialty) and then he left. It was really strange, and ruined my day.
Why we release the mentally ill into the public now, I'll never know....:rolleyes:
Another time I was walking to work in not such a great neighborhood when an Aboriginal woman came up to me, and started swearing and swinging at me. Apparently I was a 'fucking whitie' and she had a beef with that. :rolleyes:
Hey, my taxes paid for your booze!
I'm beginning to strongly support that a 'mass cull' is not such a bad idea....

...that's an apt description of the local populace...not based on the Mid-North coast,NSW?...if so,we are probably closer than you think...if you are referring to the CCC shopping complex,use the underground car-park...never
the front doors,you can slip in and out and avoid the crap at the taxi stands...I know how you feel...I just don't say usually.

everyone posting in this thread are angels, thats why we cant relate to the violence on earth. We just cant relate to it. thats just the way I see it, from what I have read.
Anyone who thinks it is 'normal' does not belong here. We somehow elected to come and help these fuckers.

I was walking down Bearwood high street in Birmingham on my way home one sunday. I walked past a bus stop and without provocation this black lady started following me and screaming "satanist, satanist" and trying to et anyone who looked at her to notice I was a satanist. haha It made me laugh so much. I have long hair and was wearing all black clothes so I must be a satanist or maybe it was my pentagram tattoo that tipped he off? either way her behaviour was moronic!

I empathize with everyone here. Why have so many become so insecure to a point where they need to belittle others for no real reason? I don't get that at all. We all go through hardships in life, so why add more?
I have had similar things happen to me. I enjoy the outdoors quite a bit. I like fishing, hiking, and biking. I've been called all sorts of things for having knowledge and interest of nature around my area. I've also had others tell me to "Get a car you loser" while biking. I own a car but have always enjoyed biking, and the ironic thing was most of the people shouting were overweight, heavy smokers, or people visibly out of shape. I used to get pissed off about it, but it doesn't bother me now. The only reason people say things like that is because they're envious in some way. Fear and ignorance does funny things to people. :D
