Bullying

It always astounds me that with as many millions of people trying to make a difference, there doesn't seem to be a change. I watch shows like Extreme Makeover Home Edition and bawl my eyes out because there are thousands of selfless people helping others who are in need.
I see people taking a stand against bullying and every other person making or liking a status that says "don't bully" or "bullying is wrong". Everyone seems to be against it, so why isn't anything changing?
I guess that answer is left unanswered, because I don't know.

At the same time something else has been bothering me: why are people so mean? I do not understand. I recently encountered 2 people who were just plain MEAN, 2 people I don't know mind you. What is the sense in that?
The saddest part of the whole story is that no matter how many people we have standing against bullying, the people standing are still effected by it because even if they aren't contemplating suicide, they are bowing down to bullies to keep from feeling the same way as their victims. Which makes YOU a bully too.
