3
00:00:40,249 --> 00:00:43,209
From the day Tyler was born,

4
00:00:43,377 --> 00:00:47,547
I was probably
the proudest dad in the world.

5
00:00:47,715 --> 00:00:51,759
Because he was the firstborn,
he was the first son.

6
00:00:57,599 --> 00:01:00,852
He always had that laugh
about him that was just...

7
00:01:01,019 --> 00:01:03,104
...I don't know,
it was infectious.

8
00:01:03,272 --> 00:01:04,689
It caught you.

9
00:01:04,857 --> 00:01:07,442
Keep going! Keep going!

10
00:01:12,072 --> 00:01:13,489
One more time. Let's go.

11
00:01:13,657 --> 00:01:16,784
See, Papa, see?

12
00:01:16,952 --> 00:01:19,328
See, I can do it.

13
00:01:20,414 --> 00:01:23,666
Papa, see? I can do it.

14
00:01:23,834 --> 00:01:28,629
As he grew older,
he kind of reverted and was a loner.

15
00:01:31,592 --> 00:01:33,676
He couldn't stand large crowds,

16
00:01:33,844 --> 00:01:35,720
he couldn't stand the noise of it all.

17
00:01:36,847 --> 00:01:38,514
Here, let's see the window.

18
00:01:38,682 --> 00:01:41,893
I knew he would be victimized
at some point in time.

19
00:01:42,060 --> 00:01:43,936
Tyler?

20
00:01:57,534 --> 00:01:59,535
What is it, Dad?
I need a camcorder.

21
00:01:59,703 --> 00:02:01,370
Tyler was never the most athletic.

22
00:02:01,538 --> 00:02:03,581
All right, y'all tell me
what y'all think about snow.

23
00:02:03,749 --> 00:02:08,586
When he was in PE, he was always
the last one to be chose.

24
00:02:08,754 --> 00:02:11,422
Nobody would be on his team
because they said he was a geek

25
00:02:11,590 --> 00:02:14,675
and he's a fag,
and they didn't want to play with him.

26
00:02:14,843 --> 00:02:19,764
And it took a toll on him
early in middle school

27
00:02:19,932 --> 00:02:22,809
to where he... he cried.

28
00:02:25,229 --> 00:02:28,397
And then he got to a point
to where he didn't cry anymore.

29
00:02:30,275 --> 00:02:32,527
And that's when it became difficult

30
00:02:32,694 --> 00:02:36,781
to truly understand
what he was going through.

31
00:02:36,949 --> 00:02:39,325
Is this in position?

32
00:02:39,493 --> 00:02:44,789
Kimberly, if you see this tape,
this is me, I'm talking in the camera.

33
00:02:44,957 --> 00:02:48,543
But I just wanted to say that
I really love you very much.

34
00:02:48,710 --> 00:02:51,337
If all the kids insult you

35
00:02:51,505 --> 00:02:55,675
and all things like that,
forget about them.

36
00:02:57,135 --> 00:02:59,762
The last couple days we had heard

37
00:02:59,930 --> 00:03:03,266
that he had had his head
shoved into a wall locker.

38
00:03:05,102 --> 00:03:08,604
Some kids had told him to go
hang himself, that he was worthless.

39
00:03:08,772 --> 00:03:11,232
Hand me it.

40
00:03:18,490 --> 00:03:23,035
And I think he got to the point
to where enough was enough.

41
00:03:28,041 --> 00:03:31,210
- Tyler, what are you doing?
- Drawing.

42
00:03:31,378 --> 00:03:33,337
- You doing your homework?
- Yes.

43
00:03:33,505 --> 00:03:36,090
- You drawing Daddy a picture?
- Yes.

44
00:03:36,258 --> 00:03:38,009
- Say hi to Daddy.
- Hi, Daddy.

45
00:03:38,176 --> 00:03:41,512
I still think he's going
to come through that door.

46
00:03:42,931 --> 00:03:44,599
And I know he's not.

47
00:03:46,393 --> 00:03:48,811
Come here.

48
00:03:48,979 --> 00:03:50,897
Well, come here.

49
00:03:51,064 --> 00:03:53,190
Basketball.

50
00:03:55,277 --> 00:03:57,028
If there is a heaven...

51
00:03:59,531 --> 00:04:01,407
...I know Tyler's there.

52
00:04:03,952 --> 00:04:06,370
And all I can do is have the faith...

53
00:04:07,831 --> 00:04:10,082
...that I'll be able to see him again.

54
00:04:11,877 --> 00:04:14,378
That's what I have to live for.

55
00:04:14,546 --> 00:04:16,923
And I have to live
for my other two kids,

56
00:04:17,090 --> 00:04:19,675
and I have to make their life...

57
00:04:21,929 --> 00:04:24,972
...as comfortable and as pleasant...

58
00:04:26,433 --> 00:04:29,685
...and as peaceful as I can.

59
00:04:50,165 --> 00:04:54,543

You have no cups that I can reach.

81
00:07:22,317 --> 00:07:23,526
I have no cups?

82
00:07:23,693 --> 00:07:25,736
- That I can reach.
- Why not?

83
00:07:25,904 --> 00:07:28,364
Because they're all the way back there.

84
00:07:28,532 --> 00:07:30,491
Somebody, named "your mother"...

85
00:07:30,659 --> 00:07:32,827
I feel good when I'm in this house

86
00:07:32,994 --> 00:07:35,996
and when I'm with my family.

87
00:07:36,915 --> 00:07:39,375
- That's Papa's cup.
- Yeah, I know.

88
00:07:39,543 --> 00:07:44,880
Maya, my sister, she is annoying,

89
00:07:45,048 --> 00:07:47,800
but that's normal for a sister, so...

90
00:07:47,968 --> 00:07:51,095
Uh, then there's Ethan.

91
00:07:51,263 --> 00:07:54,515
He's my six-year-old brother.

92
00:07:54,683 --> 00:07:59,436
He got all A's in preschool
through kindergarten.

93
00:07:59,604 --> 00:08:01,856
I'm proud of him for that.

94
00:08:03,483 --> 00:08:06,652
Then there's Jada.

95
00:08:06,820 --> 00:08:09,321
She talks a lot.

96
00:08:10,574 --> 00:08:13,742
Then there's Logan,
my two-year-old brother,

97
00:08:13,910 --> 00:08:17,997
and my mama and my dad.

98
00:08:18,165 --> 00:08:20,374
And then there's me.

99
00:08:25,213 --> 00:08:29,300
L-O-S-E-R.
What does that spell? "Alex."

100
00:08:29,467 --> 00:08:32,178
Wow, sisters are annoying.

101
00:08:32,345 --> 00:08:36,390
Your face is annoying.

102
00:08:36,558 --> 00:08:40,227
People, uh, call me "fish face."
I don't mind.

103
00:08:40,395 --> 00:08:42,438
You got called "fish face," too?

104
00:08:42,606 --> 00:08:44,773
I got called that
all the time in third grade.

105
00:08:44,941 --> 00:08:46,400
- You did?
- Yeah.

106
00:08:48,695 --> 00:08:50,112
Come here, come here, come here.

107
00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:52,740
What?

108
00:08:54,034 --> 00:08:55,576
Body slam!

109
00:08:58,121 --> 00:08:59,747
Oh, your foot!

110
00:09:01,041 --> 00:09:03,167
Isn't it tasty?

111
00:09:32,822 --> 00:09:36,951
I feel kind of nervous
going back to school 'cause...

112
00:09:38,828 --> 00:09:40,287
...I like learning,

113
00:09:40,455 --> 00:09:45,000
but I have trouble with making friends.

114
00:10:00,892 --> 00:10:02,309
What's up, Alex?

115
00:10:05,438 --> 00:10:07,314
Don't piss me off and that won't happen.

116
00:10:07,482 --> 00:10:08,482
OK.

117
00:10:08,650 --> 00:10:11,026
I'll kick your ass.

118
00:10:14,906 --> 00:10:16,782
- Don't do that.
- I'm not hitting you.

119
00:10:16,950 --> 00:10:19,243
You hit me in the nose.

120
00:10:24,874 --> 00:10:29,086
- Don't even think about watching.
- Oh, OK.

121
00:10:29,254 --> 00:10:31,630
Or gonna throw you on the ground
and start kicking the crap out of you.

122
00:10:31,798 --> 00:10:35,175
I'll break your Adam's apple,
which will kill you.

123
00:11:19,137 --> 00:11:20,387
Hey! No, you didn't!

124
00:11:20,555 --> 00:11:22,264
- What's up?
- S'up?

125
00:11:50,293 --> 00:11:51,418
Oh, OK.

126
00:11:53,254 --> 00:11:54,797
Yeah, I know what you're saying.

127
00:12:14,818 --> 00:12:18,404
Whoa, the fog must have
slowed everybody down.

128
00:12:18,571 --> 00:12:20,864
Go. Go, go, go.

129
00:12:40,301 --> 00:12:41,677
Get to class.

130
00:12:44,013 --> 00:12:45,681
And away we go.

131
00:12:45,849 --> 00:12:48,725
Listen up, everybody get your team
and line up over there against the wall.

132
00:12:48,893 --> 00:12:50,894
It doesn't matter which order.

133
00:12:51,896 --> 00:12:53,981
Whoa, buddy, what happened? Come here.

134
00:12:54,149 --> 00:12:57,985
- We just got...
- What in the world happened?

135
00:13:01,406 --> 00:13:05,659
I don't see any hole.

136
00:13:05,827 --> 00:13:07,661
- He got hit pretty good.
- Did he?

137
00:13:07,829 --> 00:13:10,706
I'll bet you guys
didn't like that, did you?

138
00:13:12,584 --> 00:13:13,792
Get in there, let's go.
Get in there.

139
00:13:13,960 --> 00:13:15,586
Let's go, let's go, let's go.

140
00:13:16,754 --> 00:13:17,880
Let's go, let's go, move around.

141
00:13:18,047 --> 00:13:19,756
Come on, Jason, move around.

142
00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:25,304
Watch the ball!

143
00:13:27,182 --> 00:13:30,976
Hey. Are you in trouble?

144
00:13:31,144 --> 00:13:34,146
- Not really.
- OK.

145
00:13:35,690 --> 00:13:38,817
He's always such
an unhappy-looking child.

146
00:13:38,985 --> 00:13:41,695
I see you guys laughing over there.

147
00:13:50,330 --> 00:13:53,207
Now, Cody.

148
00:13:57,128 --> 00:13:59,004
Cody, come here.

149
00:13:59,172 --> 00:14:01,632
You don't have a book?
Oh, 'cause you just snuck in?

150
00:14:01,799 --> 00:14:05,093
We're on page 364.
Maggie, go ahead and read it, please.

151
00:14:07,305 --> 00:14:09,056
Mrs. Pucilek, open a window.

152
00:14:09,224 --> 00:14:11,016
- Huh?
- Open a window.

153
00:14:11,184 --> 00:14:13,227
Can I do that
without getting in trouble? OK.

154
00:14:13,394 --> 00:14:15,521
Yes. Come here, sweetie.

155
00:14:15,688 --> 00:14:18,649
Cody, can you tell me what's
happening at lunch table?

156
00:14:19,776 --> 00:14:22,486
He calls me a faggot.

157
00:14:22,654 --> 00:14:24,530
Mm-hm. He does?

158
00:14:26,533 --> 00:14:28,492
How does that make you feel?

159
00:14:28,660 --> 00:14:32,454
Uh, it... It breaks my heart.

160
00:14:32,622 --> 00:14:35,165
It breaks your heart. I see.

161
00:14:35,333 --> 00:14:37,042
So what do you think we should do?

162
00:14:41,673 --> 00:14:43,131
Tell me how to fix this.

163
00:14:45,260 --> 00:14:47,052
Tell me how to fix this.

164
00:14:47,220 --> 00:14:50,389
I don't know.
I don't have any magic.

165
00:14:53,768 --> 00:14:56,019
Just, you know,
and it's a really awful feeling.

166
00:14:56,187 --> 00:15:01,024
How many people in here have,
um, at least one friend?

167
00:15:02,485 --> 00:15:05,195
OK. How many people in here
have two friends?

168
00:15:07,073 --> 00:15:10,742
How many people in here have
more than two friends?

169
00:15:11,828 --> 00:15:13,662
Almost everybody.

170
00:15:47,488 --> 00:15:51,617
People think that I'm different,

171
00:15:51,784 --> 00:15:54,286
I'm not normal.

172
00:15:56,873 --> 00:15:59,291
Most kids don't want to be around me.

173
00:16:04,756 --> 00:16:09,092
I feel like I...
I belong somewhere else.

174
00:16:32,075 --> 00:16:33,575
You can always count on
something happening

175
00:16:33,743 --> 00:16:37,621
when you're walking down the hall
at school and in the classroom,

176
00:16:37,789 --> 00:16:40,415
after school,
when I'm walking home, uh,

177
00:16:40,583 --> 00:16:42,668
when I'm walking through the parking
lot in the mornings, to school.

178
00:16:42,835 --> 00:16:45,754
I wasn't welcomed at church.

179
00:16:45,922 --> 00:16:49,591
I'm not welcomed
in a lot of people's homes.

180
00:16:49,759 --> 00:16:52,177
I know these guys get called "gay"
just for hanging out with me.

181
00:16:52,345 --> 00:16:53,512
Everybody thinks I'm a lesbian.

182
00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:55,180
Everybody thought we were lesbians

183
00:16:55,348 --> 00:16:56,848
- right when we started hanging out.
- I'm straight.

184
00:16:57,016 --> 00:16:59,434
- And she's straight.
- I'm straight.

185
00:16:59,602 --> 00:17:01,520
Like I told you,
she's K-gay.

186
00:17:01,688 --> 00:17:04,147
I'm not straight anymore.

187
00:17:04,315 --> 00:17:06,858
We were walking back from lunch
and these guys,

188
00:17:07,026 --> 00:17:11,196
there was probably like six older guys,
driving in their mom's minivan.

189
00:17:11,364 --> 00:17:12,531
They were mostly jocks.

190
00:17:12,699 --> 00:17:14,741
I was gonna find out
what their problem was,

191
00:17:14,909 --> 00:17:18,245
so I kinda walked in the road,

192
00:17:18,413 --> 00:17:20,747
and instead of slowing down
or stopping to talk to me,

193
00:17:20,915 --> 00:17:23,542
they sped up
and I flew onto the windshield.

194
00:17:25,211 --> 00:17:27,796
I couldn't have gotten hit by something
cool, like a Jeep or something.

195
00:17:27,964 --> 00:17:29,589
I had to get hit by a minivan.

196
00:17:38,766 --> 00:17:42,185
Tuttle. Country town.

197
00:17:42,353 --> 00:17:44,354
- What did he say?
- Friday night games.

198
00:17:44,522 --> 00:17:46,398
Football, football Let's play football!

199
00:17:46,566 --> 00:17:51,194
Defense!
Defense! Defense!

200
00:17:51,362 --> 00:17:53,321
Bible Belt Oklahoma.

201
00:17:56,576 --> 00:18:00,162
Any time someone comes around
that's the least bit different,

202
00:18:00,329 --> 00:18:03,081
they make sure to put 'em down.

203
00:18:09,380 --> 00:18:13,175
This is where I got the most crap.
Playing basketball.

204
00:18:13,342 --> 00:18:15,260
I loved basketball.

205
00:18:15,428 --> 00:18:19,723
But they just told me many times
they don't want to touch me.

206
00:18:23,561 --> 00:18:26,605
It's pretty much on that court
was my worst year ever.

207
00:18:26,773 --> 00:18:28,732
Every time I look at that board,

208
00:18:28,900 --> 00:18:30,984
I know my name should be up there.

209
00:18:33,988 --> 00:18:36,990
I was told many times I could
have got a scholarship.

210
00:18:45,124 --> 00:18:47,876
I was a cutter.

211
00:18:48,044 --> 00:18:50,253
I've tried to commit suicide
three times.

212
00:18:55,468 --> 00:18:59,095
Once Kelby came out
and the town learned about her,

213
00:18:59,263 --> 00:19:01,139
it was overnight.

214
00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:05,060
We've pretty much been isolated here.

215
00:19:06,395 --> 00:19:10,023
There are people that we spent...

216
00:19:10,191 --> 00:19:15,904
...years with, side by side,
coaching their children...

217
00:19:16,072 --> 00:19:19,991
...that will not even wave to us
anymore, won't look at us.

218
00:19:20,159 --> 00:19:24,496
We were sitting in the car one day,
driving down the street

219
00:19:24,664 --> 00:19:27,457
and I looked over at her,
and it was just me and her in the car,

220
00:19:27,625 --> 00:19:30,502
and I said, "Kelby, are you gay?"

221
00:19:30,670 --> 00:19:34,339
And she started crying and saying,
"Don't hate me.

222
00:19:34,507 --> 00:19:37,634
Please don't stop loving me."

223
00:19:37,802 --> 00:19:40,846
She never said yes,
but I could tell by her reaction

224
00:19:41,013 --> 00:19:44,391
that she was
and she was scared to death.

225
00:19:44,559 --> 00:19:48,019
I mean, she grew up in a family
that taught Sunday school

226
00:19:48,187 --> 00:19:50,355
and raised her to believe that...

227
00:19:53,109 --> 00:19:54,484
...that was a sin.

228
00:19:55,945 --> 00:20:01,324
And I think you feel that way
until you're in that situation,

229
00:20:01,492 --> 00:20:04,452
and... and then it's personal.

230
00:20:09,208 --> 00:20:13,169
They made it very clear
that I wasn't welcomed at the school.

231
00:20:13,337 --> 00:20:16,882
When I opened my locker,
there was a note that said,

232
00:20:17,049 --> 00:20:19,134
"Faggots aren't welcomed here."

233
00:20:21,345 --> 00:20:23,221
And the teacher was calling roll

234
00:20:23,389 --> 00:20:27,225
and said, "Boys,"
and then he said, "Girls"

235
00:20:27,393 --> 00:20:30,520
and then paused and said, "Kelby."

236
00:20:30,688 --> 00:20:35,650
And another teacher told me
how they burned fags,

237
00:20:35,818 --> 00:20:40,238
and kept talking about it
with me in the classroom,

238
00:20:40,406 --> 00:20:42,198
and everyone was laughing.

239
00:20:44,243 --> 00:20:47,579
And they knew it was hurting me,
and they kept going.

240
00:20:47,747 --> 00:20:50,582
And I offered her the out.
I said, "You know,

241
00:20:50,750 --> 00:20:52,667
we can go somewhere bigger.

242
00:20:52,835 --> 00:20:55,670
Somewhere where it's not
gonna be like a microscope

243
00:20:55,838 --> 00:20:58,465
and you're not gonna be an outcast,

244
00:20:58,633 --> 00:21:01,092
and if you want to do that
I understand. We'll go."

245
00:21:01,260 --> 00:21:04,012
And from the very first day,

246
00:21:04,180 --> 00:21:07,724
she said, "No, if I leave, they win."

247
00:21:07,892 --> 00:21:09,935
The school doesn't care.

248
00:21:10,102 --> 00:21:12,312
We've had so many meetings
with the principal

249
00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:15,106
and the superintendent.

250
00:21:15,274 --> 00:21:18,318
And they all give you
the same plastic smile

251
00:21:18,486 --> 00:21:23,657
and say, "Yes, I understand.
I'll do everything I can."

252
00:21:23,824 --> 00:21:25,825
And nothing's ever done.

253
00:21:35,461 --> 00:21:39,005
- I love you too.
- I'll see you here in a bit.

254
00:21:39,173 --> 00:21:41,383
- OK.
- Bye. I'll see you.

255
00:22:03,447 --> 00:22:06,574
This was Troy's room,
and this was Tyler's room.

256
00:22:06,742 --> 00:22:09,995
And when David opened the door,
that was Tyler's bed.

257
00:22:10,162 --> 00:22:12,747
And he saw the note lying on the bed.

258
00:22:12,915 --> 00:22:14,874
But, of course, you can't see
into the closet from here

259
00:22:15,042 --> 00:22:16,334
because it's just a door.

260
00:22:16,502 --> 00:22:18,920
So when David walked in

261
00:22:19,088 --> 00:22:22,757
is when he saw the inside of the closet,
and there was Tyler.

262
00:22:22,925 --> 00:22:25,885
And then, of course,
David yelled for me, and Troy got up.

263
00:22:26,053 --> 00:22:31,182
So Troy... saw everything.

264
00:22:31,350 --> 00:22:33,393
He saw everything.

265
00:22:33,561 --> 00:22:36,021
So we had to switch them.
That's what we thought was best.

266
00:22:36,188 --> 00:22:37,814
We put Troy on that side of the house

267
00:22:37,982 --> 00:22:42,152
and moved Teryn on this side
of the house and just repainted.

268
00:22:42,319 --> 00:22:45,071
Because that was the only way
we could get through.

269
00:22:45,239 --> 00:22:48,408
Because all we see
when we come in here still...

270
00:22:50,911 --> 00:22:52,996
...is the picture
of Tyler hanging there.

271
00:22:55,082 --> 00:22:58,793
So we had to change everything,
and now this is headquarters.

272
00:22:58,961 --> 00:23:03,757
Headquarters for the e-mails,
headquarters for...

273
00:23:05,551 --> 00:23:09,262
...our project of working
to keep Tyler's voice alive.

274
00:23:12,725 --> 00:23:15,560
We took the shelf down.

275
00:23:17,897 --> 00:23:21,399
We took the shelf down, you can see.

276
00:23:26,113 --> 00:23:28,031
Breathe, breathe, breathe.

277
00:23:29,283 --> 00:23:30,700
Ready?

278
00:23:30,868 --> 00:23:34,621
One, two, three, four, and five,
six, seven, eight.

279
00:23:46,842 --> 00:23:51,638
Turn around,
and ball change, and turns.

280
00:23:51,806 --> 00:23:53,473
Your turns have been phenomenal today.

281
00:23:53,641 --> 00:23:57,268
And drop over and roll. Up.

282
00:23:59,188 --> 00:24:02,482
- Bye. Thanks.
- Bye.

283
00:24:08,447 --> 00:24:10,615
When I found him that morning...

284
00:24:12,910 --> 00:24:14,661
...we knew...

285
00:24:16,580 --> 00:24:18,957
...why Tyler did what he did.

286
00:24:20,292 --> 00:24:22,335
There was no doubt in our minds.

287
00:24:24,922 --> 00:24:30,760
When... you're in the shower
and your clothes are taken,

288
00:24:30,928 --> 00:24:33,680
and you have no way
of getting out of the gym

289
00:24:33,848 --> 00:24:35,348
other than walking out naked.

290
00:24:35,516 --> 00:24:39,352
When you're standing in the bathroom

291
00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:42,897
and you're urinating, and kids come up

292
00:24:43,065 --> 00:24:44,732
and push you from behind
up against the stall

293
00:24:44,900 --> 00:24:48,278
and against the wall
and you urinate on your pants.

294
00:24:48,445 --> 00:24:51,281
When you're sitting in the classroom,
somebody comes by and grabs your books

295
00:24:51,448 --> 00:24:54,909
and throws them on the floor
and tells you, "Pick them up, bitch."

296
00:24:55,077 --> 00:24:58,913
Those are things that happened to Tyler.

297
00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:04,669
Did he ever come home
with blood running down his face? No.

298
00:25:06,589 --> 00:25:10,508
It was the mental abuse

299
00:25:10,676 --> 00:25:14,721
and the not-so-physical abuse
that Tyler endured.

300
00:25:16,849 --> 00:25:21,060
We can control what goes inside
those walls, inside the school.

301
00:25:21,228 --> 00:25:26,441
And the atmosphere has to be set
completely by all the administration.

302
00:25:27,902 --> 00:25:30,486
They all are part of the school system,

303
00:25:30,654 --> 00:25:32,614
and they're there to protect the kids.

304
00:25:35,159 --> 00:25:38,244
And if they don't,
then this is what happens.

305
00:25:42,541 --> 00:25:46,586
He had a target on his back.
Everybody knew that.

306
00:26:19,703 --> 00:26:23,248
Hold on, hold on.
Wait, wait here. Come by me.

307
00:26:23,415 --> 00:26:24,791
Come on.

308
00:26:26,168 --> 00:26:28,253
There's a car coming.

309
00:26:28,420 --> 00:26:30,255
I don't want to go on...

310
00:26:30,422 --> 00:26:33,800
Here, I just got these new shoes so...

311
00:26:33,968 --> 00:26:36,344
I got my own princess shoes!

312
00:26:39,640 --> 00:26:42,433
- Yeah, water?
- Turn the water on.

313
00:26:46,563 --> 00:26:49,732
- How'd it go?
- Good and...

314
00:26:51,402 --> 00:26:55,321
...nobody did anything
to me today, so...

315
00:26:57,283 --> 00:26:58,908
That's good.

316
00:27:03,664 --> 00:27:05,290
How was your day?

317
00:27:12,089 --> 00:27:13,464
Are you in there?

318
00:27:15,175 --> 00:27:18,303
- Yeah.
- Good to know.

319
00:27:18,470 --> 00:27:21,389
I'm glad you didn't have
any problems today.

320
00:27:25,644 --> 00:27:28,146
Next time I get the whole story, OK?

321
00:27:34,695 --> 00:27:36,321
He doesn't share a whole lot.

322
00:27:39,074 --> 00:27:41,075
He was always pretty quiet.

323
00:27:43,829 --> 00:27:47,165
He was born at 26-weeks gestation.

324
00:27:47,333 --> 00:27:52,420
Uh... So that's pretty far from 40.

325
00:27:52,588 --> 00:27:56,007
Um... and, uh...

326
00:27:56,175 --> 00:28:00,720
...they came in and said that...

327
00:28:00,888 --> 00:28:04,432
They said he wouldn't live 24 hours.

328
00:28:05,642 --> 00:28:08,936
It's 13 years, so he made it.

329
00:28:20,199 --> 00:28:24,452
My biggest goal for him
is I need him to learn to communicate.

330
00:28:26,830 --> 00:28:31,167
You spend all your free time
with these little people.

331
00:28:33,587 --> 00:28:37,090
It's crazy to think you
don't really know them

332
00:28:37,257 --> 00:28:39,967
or what happens to them or...

333
00:28:41,095 --> 00:28:43,679
It's scary.

334
00:28:57,528 --> 00:28:59,362
- What?
- You feel that?

335
00:29:12,626 --> 00:29:14,836
Hey, I texted you back.

336
00:29:22,094 --> 00:29:24,345
They must be coming in.
Bringing them in, Vicky?

337
00:29:39,236 --> 00:29:40,236
You all right, Cole?

338
00:29:40,404 --> 00:29:42,280
Mrs. Lockwood,
I'm in the middle of this,

339
00:29:42,448 --> 00:29:45,825
- and I'm sick and tired of it.
- No, no, no. You just go, OK?

340
00:29:45,993 --> 00:29:50,621
Cole, stay right here.
Right here.

341
00:29:50,789 --> 00:29:54,041
I'm gonna ask you guys
to shake hands. Can you do that?

342
00:29:54,209 --> 00:29:56,627
- Yeah.
- Shake hands.

343
00:29:58,338 --> 00:30:01,007
Cole!

344
00:30:01,175 --> 00:30:02,800
- Cole!
- What?

345
00:30:02,968 --> 00:30:05,803
You are not going anywhere.

346
00:30:05,971 --> 00:30:09,849
He is offering his hand.
And let this drop.

347
00:30:12,978 --> 00:30:14,270
You may go.

348
00:30:14,438 --> 00:30:17,148
Cole, I expected more.

349
00:30:17,316 --> 00:30:19,650
He criticizes me every single day.

350
00:30:19,818 --> 00:30:23,070
- Then why are you around him?
- I don't. He comes to me.

351
00:30:23,238 --> 00:30:25,615
I try to get away from him,
he follows me.

352
00:30:25,782 --> 00:30:29,535
And he criticizes me,
calling me a "P-U-S-S-Y."

353
00:30:29,703 --> 00:30:32,663
OK, honey, that's not right,
and he shouldn't do that.

354
00:30:32,831 --> 00:30:34,373
- I don't even know why.
- You know what?

355
00:30:34,541 --> 00:30:36,792
He was trying to say he was sorry.

356
00:30:36,960 --> 00:30:38,878
He already did, and he didn't mean it

357
00:30:39,046 --> 00:30:40,546
because it continued on.

358
00:30:40,714 --> 00:30:44,967
You didn't mean it when you
stuck out your hand, either.

359
00:30:45,135 --> 00:30:48,054
So that means you're
just like him, right?

360
00:30:48,222 --> 00:30:51,766
- What you don't like in him, you...
- Except I don't hurt people.

361
00:30:51,934 --> 00:30:55,478
By not shaking his hand,
you're just like him.

362
00:30:55,646 --> 00:30:57,647
Like someone who pushes you into walls,

363
00:30:57,814 --> 00:30:59,440
threatens to break your arm,

364
00:30:59,608 --> 00:31:02,151
threatens to stab you and kill you?
Shoot you with a gun?

365
00:31:02,319 --> 00:31:04,570
He apologized.

366
00:31:04,738 --> 00:31:07,114
Have you reported
all that sort of stuff?

367
00:31:07,282 --> 00:31:09,784
- Yes.
- OK, then it's been taken care of.

368
00:31:09,952 --> 00:31:12,119
And all of them said,
even the cops said...

369
00:31:12,287 --> 00:31:13,538
...told him to stay away from me,

370
00:31:13,705 --> 00:31:14,830
- and he doesn't.
- OK.

371
00:31:14,998 --> 00:31:18,209
All right. Can you try to get along?

372
00:31:18,377 --> 00:31:21,379
I think you guys might be
really good friends at some time.

373
00:31:21,547 --> 00:31:24,840
We were.
And then he started bullying me.

374
00:31:33,350 --> 00:31:34,850
Ow.

375
00:31:49,658 --> 00:31:52,827
Two people to a seat, dumbass.

376
00:31:52,995 --> 00:31:55,913
Get out of the damn seat!
There's two people already here.

377
00:32:04,256 --> 00:32:06,299
They punch me in the jaw...

378
00:32:07,467 --> 00:32:10,011
...strangle me.

379
00:32:12,264 --> 00:32:14,223
They knock things out of my hand...

380
00:32:16,727 --> 00:32:18,311
...take things from me...

381
00:32:19,521 --> 00:32:21,314
...sit on me.

382
00:32:30,907 --> 00:32:34,493
They... push me so far that...

383
00:32:34,661 --> 00:32:38,372
...that I... I want to become the bully.

384
00:32:54,765 --> 00:32:58,768
This is her comfort zone, to herself.

385
00:33:00,604 --> 00:33:02,146
She was a basketball player.

386
00:33:02,314 --> 00:33:04,982
These are her trophies, her awards.

387
00:33:06,943 --> 00:33:09,445
Got her names on them and everything.

388
00:33:13,575 --> 00:33:14,784
She's an honor student.

389
00:33:17,621 --> 00:33:20,581
Yeah, she is an honor student.

390
00:33:20,749 --> 00:33:22,333
She said when she finished school,

391
00:33:22,501 --> 00:33:28,047
she said she wanted to go to the, uh,
Navy, I think that's what she said.

392
00:33:28,215 --> 00:33:29,882
Because she didn't
want to see me work so hard,

393
00:33:30,050 --> 00:33:31,884
and she wanted to help me out.

394
00:33:52,030 --> 00:33:54,031
She said, "Mama, I'm sorry."

395
00:33:54,199 --> 00:33:56,867
She said, "I didn't mean
to put you through this."

396
00:33:57,035 --> 00:33:59,537
She said, "I got tired
of them messing with me,

397
00:33:59,705 --> 00:34:01,706
picking at me, day by day."

398
00:34:01,873 --> 00:34:04,166
She said, "Mama, I wasn't
trying to hurt nobody.

399
00:34:04,334 --> 00:34:05,751
I just wanted to scare them."

400
00:34:15,804 --> 00:34:19,724
It all started back
when school first began,

401
00:34:19,891 --> 00:34:25,271
and there was a lot of kids on the bus
saying things about me.

402
00:34:32,779 --> 00:34:38,743
I tried my best to tell an adult,
but it got worse.

403
00:34:41,872 --> 00:34:46,709
It was about 8:30 to 8:45

404
00:34:46,877 --> 00:34:50,087
when I got the call that morning.

405
00:34:54,509 --> 00:34:56,343
I was shocked,

406
00:34:56,511 --> 00:34:58,721
because I couldn't believe
that was my daughter.

407
00:34:58,889 --> 00:35:01,724
And I asked the lady, I said,
"Are you sure you got my daughter?"

408
00:35:01,892 --> 00:35:04,435
And she said, "Yeah."
I said, "Well, what is her name?"

409
00:35:04,603 --> 00:35:06,854
She said, "Ja'Meya Jackson."

410
00:35:08,315 --> 00:35:11,150
And it's like I just...
My heart just dropped.

411
00:35:11,318 --> 00:35:12,985
'Cause I couldn't believe it.

412
00:35:13,153 --> 00:35:15,905
I'm like, "She couldn't
have gotten my gun."

413
00:35:16,072 --> 00:35:18,157
And she said, "She got your gun."

414
00:35:18,325 --> 00:35:21,035
And I'm like,
"She didn't hurt anybody, did she?"

415
00:35:21,203 --> 00:35:23,412
She said, "No,
she didn't hurt anybody."

416
00:35:30,003 --> 00:35:34,256
It felt like everybody
just turned against me.

417
00:35:34,424 --> 00:35:36,842
It was like nine of them,
nine or ten of them

418
00:35:37,010 --> 00:35:40,471
calling me stupid and dumb,

419
00:35:40,639 --> 00:35:45,142
and they started throwing things at me.

420
00:35:45,310 --> 00:35:47,228
And one of the guys
said something to me,

421
00:35:47,395 --> 00:35:49,563
and he threatened me, talking
about what he was gonna do to me,

422
00:35:49,731 --> 00:35:52,858
and he'll fight girls,
and everybody was laughing.

423
00:35:53,026 --> 00:35:54,944
And I was telling him to be quiet,

424
00:35:55,111 --> 00:35:57,738
and he kept talking,
and that's when I got up.

425
00:35:57,906 --> 00:35:59,532
What?

426
00:36:02,160 --> 00:36:03,536
Now come here, baby.

427
00:36:04,788 --> 00:36:06,080
Come here, baby.

428
00:36:08,041 --> 00:36:10,668
- Popped a gun on...
- What did you do?

429
00:36:10,836 --> 00:36:13,212
- What are they doing?
- They're talking,

430
00:36:13,380 --> 00:36:16,131
and I pulled a gun on them
showing up on my life now.

431
00:36:16,299 --> 00:36:19,552
- Y'all talking?
- Sit down and leave her alone.

432
00:36:23,223 --> 00:36:25,391
At the point to where
she takes the gun out,

433
00:36:25,559 --> 00:36:28,435
that's 22 counts of kidnapping.

434
00:36:28,603 --> 00:36:32,231
She has 22 counts
of attempted aggravated assault.

435
00:36:32,399 --> 00:36:36,277
She's got 45 total
felony charges facing her.

436
00:36:36,444 --> 00:36:39,071
Y'all quit talking to me!
Do not talk to me!

437
00:36:39,239 --> 00:36:41,740
Calm down!

438
00:36:43,618 --> 00:36:49,039
For me, there's nothing,
no amount of bullying or teasing

439
00:36:49,207 --> 00:36:52,167
or picking on or whatever,

440
00:36:52,335 --> 00:36:55,588
there's nothing unless
someone was actually

441
00:36:55,755 --> 00:36:57,381
whipping on this girl every day,

442
00:36:57,549 --> 00:37:01,385
unless someone was hitting
this young lady in the head

443
00:37:01,553 --> 00:37:03,929
and being physically brutal to her,

444
00:37:04,097 --> 00:37:07,099
there's nothing, to me, that justifies

445
00:37:07,267 --> 00:37:10,436
her taking the gun on that bus,
I don't care what it is.

446
00:37:14,649 --> 00:37:16,108
I got it, I got it, I got it.

447
00:37:16,276 --> 00:37:18,986
You've got it?
You have it?

448
00:37:22,991 --> 00:37:25,326
The police, by the time
I had walked up off the bus,

449
00:37:25,493 --> 00:37:28,162
he just grabbed my arms
and put the cuffs up on me...

450
00:37:29,706 --> 00:37:31,624
...and I walked to the car.

451
00:37:34,753 --> 00:37:37,671
Even though things came out as best

452
00:37:37,839 --> 00:37:40,174
as they possibly could have,

453
00:37:40,342 --> 00:37:43,510
if you added up all the years
that she could get,

454
00:37:43,678 --> 00:37:45,971
it would be hundreds of years.

455
00:37:49,434 --> 00:37:51,852
Yeah, that would devastate me.

456
00:37:56,942 --> 00:37:59,360
I don't even know
if I could live behind it.

457
00:38:04,824 --> 00:38:06,742
I really don't.

458
00:38:06,910 --> 00:38:10,287
Our Father, who art in Heaven...

459
00:38:10,455 --> 00:38:13,499
...we come to you right now gathered
with bowed down heads, oh, Father God.

460
00:38:13,667 --> 00:38:17,544
We ask you, right now, oh, Father God,
in your dying son Jesus' name forever

461
00:38:17,712 --> 00:38:19,797
to have mercy up on us.

462
00:38:19,965 --> 00:38:21,799
I just never thought

463
00:38:21,967 --> 00:38:24,426
I'd see this happening to this family.

464
00:38:24,594 --> 00:38:27,054
I hate that she was getting
bullied like that

465
00:38:27,222 --> 00:38:29,306
and we couldn't do anything about it.

466
00:38:30,600 --> 00:38:32,851
'Cause Ja'Meya don't mess with anybody.

467
00:38:34,896 --> 00:38:39,149
It's going on in all schools,
it's happening to all kids,

468
00:38:39,317 --> 00:38:41,568
and it's a problem
that needs to be stopped,

469
00:38:41,736 --> 00:38:43,821
an end needs to be put to it now.

470
00:38:43,989 --> 00:38:46,824
- That's right.
- Children hurt themselves

471
00:38:46,992 --> 00:38:49,785
and hurt others all the time
because of bullying.

472
00:38:49,953 --> 00:38:54,164
'Cause parents don't talk to their
children about not bullying.

473
00:38:54,332 --> 00:38:56,083
- Right.
- Teachers don't do nothing

474
00:38:56,251 --> 00:38:57,876
about kids bullying.

475
00:38:58,044 --> 00:38:59,628
The board don't do nothing,

476
00:38:59,796 --> 00:39:02,214
the principals don't do nothing,
nothing is done.

Claps, screams and questions

489
00:40:08,448 --> 00:40:10,949
crowded a Murray County
schoolroom this evening,

490
00:40:11,117 --> 00:40:13,035
all revolving around the recent death

491
00:40:13,203 --> 00:40:15,162
of 17-year-old Tyler Long.

492
00:40:15,330 --> 00:40:18,415
His parents say unpunished bullying
at the school

493
00:40:18,583 --> 00:40:20,751
led him to take his own life.

494
00:40:23,213 --> 00:40:25,881
There were numerous times

495
00:40:26,049 --> 00:40:28,509
that I had to leave work
to go to the school

496
00:40:28,676 --> 00:40:32,930
because of situations that
arose with Tyler being bullied.

497
00:40:33,098 --> 00:40:38,727
Their attitude was, "We can't stop kids
from saying bad things.

498
00:40:38,895 --> 00:40:43,524
We can't watch what every kid
does at every moment."

499
00:40:43,691 --> 00:40:46,652
You don't want
to take care of the problem.

500
00:40:46,820 --> 00:40:49,279
And if you did want to take care of it,
it would be took care of.

501
00:40:49,447 --> 00:40:52,366
Bullying is a serious problem
in American schools.

502
00:40:52,534 --> 00:40:54,159
- It would be...
- In this school.

503
00:40:54,327 --> 00:40:57,121
- It would be unfair to say...
- Let's be honest, this school.

504
00:40:57,288 --> 00:40:58,622
OK, it would be unfair to say

505
00:40:58,790 --> 00:41:00,457
that we do not have
instances of bullying.

506
00:41:00,625 --> 00:41:03,418
My baby was missing two
and three days of school a week

507
00:41:03,586 --> 00:41:05,462
because there's a gang of five boys

508
00:41:05,630 --> 00:41:08,841
threatening to beat him up
at school every single day.

509
00:41:09,008 --> 00:41:12,010
It was reported to everyone,
and nobody did nothing.

510
00:41:13,638 --> 00:41:16,056
"Kids will be kids, boys will be boys.

511
00:41:16,224 --> 00:41:18,559
They're just cruel at this age."

512
00:41:18,726 --> 00:41:20,811
And it was
a continuous fight with them.

513
00:41:20,979 --> 00:41:25,274
The perception that the school
is a haven for bullies is just not true.

514
00:41:25,441 --> 00:41:27,651
Do we have some bullying problems?
I'm sure we do.

515
00:41:27,819 --> 00:41:30,195
All school systems do.

516
00:41:30,363 --> 00:41:33,740
But is it a major overarching
concern in our high school?

517
00:41:33,908 --> 00:41:35,284
No, it is not.

518
00:42:08,526 --> 00:42:11,028
My name's Tina Long.
I'm Tyler's mother.

519
00:42:13,239 --> 00:42:18,160
Um, I'm a nurse,
and I appreciate y'all being here.

520
00:42:18,328 --> 00:42:20,495
I'm David Long.
I'm retired military

521
00:42:20,663 --> 00:42:22,998
and work with the BoEU,
over on Fifth Avenue,

522
00:42:23,166 --> 00:42:26,335
in extrusion as a department manager.

523
00:42:26,502 --> 00:42:30,005
And I, too, really
wanted to thank everybody

524
00:42:30,173 --> 00:42:33,508
for coming out tonight and being here.

525
00:42:33,676 --> 00:42:37,346
We have invited either superintendent
or anyone from central office

526
00:42:37,513 --> 00:42:39,348
or school board members to participate.

527
00:42:39,515 --> 00:42:41,183
So I want to, right up front,

528
00:42:41,351 --> 00:42:42,976
if anyone's here
from Murray County schools,

529
00:42:43,144 --> 00:42:46,146
we'd love to have you up here
to represent the school system.

530
00:42:48,274 --> 00:42:51,944
OK, uh, we did invite them.
I wish someone had come.

531
00:42:52,111 --> 00:42:53,862
That's all you can do.

532
00:42:56,074 --> 00:42:59,159
My name's Jeff Johnson,
and I run a business here,

533
00:42:59,327 --> 00:43:01,828
I'm also a pastor at a local church.

534
00:43:01,996 --> 00:43:04,289
Some of the church kids came to me

535
00:43:04,457 --> 00:43:08,001
after Tyler had committed
this awful thing,

536
00:43:08,169 --> 00:43:12,005
and they said that kids came
to school on the next school day

537
00:43:12,173 --> 00:43:13,632
with ropes around their necks.

538
00:43:13,800 --> 00:43:15,425
My question
to the school board would be,

539
00:43:15,593 --> 00:43:20,389
why in God's name would some teacher,
some counselor,

540
00:43:20,556 --> 00:43:23,267
somebody in enforcement
not do something?

541
00:43:23,434 --> 00:43:26,478
Because that is very
derogatory to any kid.

542
00:43:26,646 --> 00:43:29,606
That's like a slap in the face
to these parents.

543
00:43:29,774 --> 00:43:34,444
And my question is, if bartenders are
responsible for a drunk

544
00:43:34,612 --> 00:43:36,488
that goes out and kills
an innocent person,

545
00:43:36,656 --> 00:43:38,323
how come the bullies
are not responsible

546
00:43:38,491 --> 00:43:40,867
for the death of this precious child?

547
00:43:44,747 --> 00:43:48,208
This is an awfully complicated
and difficult issue.

548
00:43:48,376 --> 00:43:53,171
I know there's a lot of anger
about the school system here.

549
00:43:53,339 --> 00:43:56,925
But the school can't, by itself,

550
00:43:57,093 --> 00:44:00,762
change a child's behavior
if they're going home

551
00:44:00,930 --> 00:44:04,975
and not being reinforced at home

552
00:44:05,143 --> 00:44:07,311
- to change their behavior.
- Good luck with that.

553
00:44:07,478 --> 00:44:11,023
Most of these parents could really,
I hate to say it, could care less.

554
00:44:11,190 --> 00:44:13,817
We've been there, done that.
You're not going to get them in there.

555
00:44:13,985 --> 00:44:16,153
So then what do you do?

556
00:44:16,321 --> 00:44:20,907
We've been in this scenario, and...

557
00:44:22,910 --> 00:44:26,455
...you couldn't get
the parents involved.

558
00:44:26,622 --> 00:44:28,248
So then what do you do?

559
00:44:28,416 --> 00:44:30,167
And we went to the police.

560
00:44:30,335 --> 00:44:31,793
Their hands are tied.

561
00:44:31,961 --> 00:44:35,255
You go to the school,
um, "Kids will be kids."

562
00:44:35,423 --> 00:44:37,924
Um, "Let these girls work it out."

563
00:44:38,092 --> 00:44:41,094
Um, "Let your child work it out."

564
00:44:41,262 --> 00:44:44,097
Well, it's not just in school.

565
00:44:44,265 --> 00:44:48,310
They go on the Internet, cell phones.

566
00:44:48,478 --> 00:44:52,606
They can damage somebody's life,
like they did to your son.

567
00:45:00,448 --> 00:45:03,241
Yes, I'm Howard Ensley.
I'm the sheriff here in Murray County.

568
00:45:03,409 --> 00:45:05,994
We have school resource
officers in the school,

569
00:45:06,162 --> 00:45:08,288
and they're there
to protect the students.

570
00:45:08,456 --> 00:45:10,332
Mr. Ensley,

571
00:45:10,500 --> 00:45:14,961
last year when two children
beat Tyler up,

572
00:45:15,129 --> 00:45:16,963
your school resource officer

573
00:45:17,131 --> 00:45:21,676
refused to file the charges.

574
00:45:21,844 --> 00:45:23,011
I had to fight.

575
00:45:23,179 --> 00:45:25,722
Here, what we get is, "Nothing's wrong.

576
00:45:25,890 --> 00:45:30,977
We didn't do anything.
Everything's fine."

577
00:45:31,145 --> 00:45:34,356
But, bottom-line here is, when you send
your child to that school,

578
00:45:34,524 --> 00:45:37,275
it doesn't matter
what parents that child has,

579
00:45:37,443 --> 00:45:40,529
they should be
safe and protected. Period.

580
00:45:50,206 --> 00:45:52,332
There's a young man
back there with his hand up.

581
00:45:52,500 --> 00:45:53,500
Are you a student?

582
00:45:53,668 --> 00:45:56,169
- Yes, I'm a student.
- OK, if you would.

583
00:45:57,630 --> 00:46:00,799
Um, I was a very good
friend of Tyler Long's,

584
00:46:00,967 --> 00:46:04,261
and whenever you'd
walk around that school,

585
00:46:04,429 --> 00:46:06,555
you notice that everybody gets bullied.

586
00:46:06,722 --> 00:46:09,433
And then the teachers
just kind of shrug it off.

587
00:46:09,600 --> 00:46:12,894
As in, "Oh, he done
something wrong to that kid,

588
00:46:13,062 --> 00:46:17,441
that's why he got what he got.
And it's OK, it's just fine."

589
00:46:17,608 --> 00:46:22,028
That's a load of daggom crap.
It's a big lie.

590
00:46:22,196 --> 00:46:24,948
All right, DJ, thank you very much.

591
00:46:25,825 --> 00:46:29,703
I've been dealing with it for four
years, and I finally got tired of it.

592
00:46:29,871 --> 00:46:33,707
So one day you'd
had enough. What'd you do?

593
00:46:33,875 --> 00:46:37,127
I just went off on the kid
because I couldn't stand it anymore.

594
00:46:37,295 --> 00:46:39,713
I couldn't take it.
It came to the point that, last year,

595
00:46:39,881 --> 00:46:45,010
I stayed out of school purposely
to try to stay away from them.

596
00:46:45,178 --> 00:46:47,971
I've been to my mom,
my grandparents and the principal,

597
00:46:48,139 --> 00:46:49,598
all for the last three years,

598
00:46:49,765 --> 00:46:51,308
and they haven't done
anything about it.

599
00:46:51,476 --> 00:46:54,186
It's a shame that Tyler
had to do what he done

600
00:46:54,353 --> 00:46:58,148
for people to notice what's going on
in the schools at Murray County.

601
00:46:58,316 --> 00:47:02,152
It's a shame that he had to do
this for anybody to notice it.

602
00:47:05,656 --> 00:47:07,491
We can make a difference.

603
00:47:07,658 --> 00:47:09,910
We can make a difference for kids

604
00:47:10,077 --> 00:47:12,245
that don't have to go four years

605
00:47:12,413 --> 00:47:16,666
of torment and sadness
and not wanna go to school.

606
00:47:16,834 --> 00:47:21,129
As I told the school board,
my voice is not gonna fall silent.

607
00:47:21,297 --> 00:47:26,092
I will go to my grave
until a difference is made.

608
00:47:40,942 --> 00:47:43,360
I know what Tyler was going through.

609
00:47:43,528 --> 00:47:46,238
I know how he was
thinking about suicide.

610
00:47:50,284 --> 00:47:52,619
They went around,
they were calling me a pussy,

611
00:47:52,787 --> 00:47:55,872
shoving me into lockers,
saying, "Eff you."

612
00:47:56,040 --> 00:47:59,751
And now, after I've
actually stood up for myself,

613
00:47:59,919 --> 00:48:04,756
they just walk by me, like,
"Oh, there's another kid.

614
00:48:04,924 --> 00:48:07,467
He's just another kid
here at our school."

615
00:48:08,928 --> 00:48:11,680
It really came down to the point

616
00:48:11,847 --> 00:48:15,183
that I had to go, myself,
and literally stand up for myself

617
00:48:15,351 --> 00:48:17,435
for them to leave me alone.

618
00:48:26,153 --> 00:48:29,698
Come here, buddy. Hi, buddy.

619
00:48:29,865 --> 00:48:32,826
Calm down. It's OK.

620
00:48:36,831 --> 00:48:41,793
Hey, it's OK. TJ. TJ.

621
00:48:42,587 --> 00:48:44,879
Hey, TJ.

622
00:49:38,893 --> 00:49:43,271
Well, I think this year we're
gonna get 25 inches of snow.

623
00:49:43,439 --> 00:49:46,107
I have to shovel it, though.
That stinks.

624
00:49:53,574 --> 00:49:56,743
Shut up.

625
00:50:01,165 --> 00:50:05,043
You gonna dance for mom?
You want some faster music?

626
00:50:05,211 --> 00:50:07,212
You had just the cutest little face.

627
00:50:07,380 --> 00:50:10,131
You had the chubbiest little cheeks.

628
00:50:10,299 --> 00:50:12,801
Look how cute you are.

629
00:50:12,968 --> 00:50:15,220
What happened?

630
00:50:19,100 --> 00:50:20,558
There was one song I'd play,

631
00:50:20,726 --> 00:50:23,770
and he'd just bounce
to the beat, back and forth.

632
00:50:27,358 --> 00:50:30,235
Alex, do you want to dance?

633
00:50:30,403 --> 00:50:33,029
Here.

634
00:50:40,621 --> 00:50:42,163
Dance.

635
00:50:45,209 --> 00:50:49,963
Hey! All right, that's my head.

636
00:50:50,131 --> 00:50:53,049
Come on.

637
00:50:53,217 --> 00:50:55,385
All right.

638
00:51:36,969 --> 00:51:38,011
All rise.

639
00:51:39,847 --> 00:51:42,724
Yazoo County Youth Court
is now in session.

640
00:51:42,892 --> 00:51:45,310
Judge Derek Parker presiding.

641
00:52:09,168 --> 00:52:12,337
- It's over.
- Not yet.

642
00:52:12,505 --> 00:52:15,173
- It is. What do you mean?
- I'm still here.

643
00:52:16,717 --> 00:52:18,510
I'm saying the hard part
is over, sweetie.

644
00:52:18,677 --> 00:52:22,096
- You're going home.
- In three months.

645
00:52:22,264 --> 00:52:23,973
You don't know,
you keep saying three months.

646
00:52:24,141 --> 00:52:27,310
You gonna speak three months,
and it's gonna be three.

647
00:52:29,980 --> 00:52:31,898
You hear?

648
00:52:32,066 --> 00:52:35,693
You gaining
some weight. Them thighs, girl.

649
00:52:37,446 --> 00:52:40,156
I just wanna get bigger, plumper.

650
00:52:40,324 --> 00:52:41,574
- What?
- I wanna get plump.

651
00:52:41,742 --> 00:52:43,034
No, you don't.

652
00:52:43,202 --> 00:52:45,578
You gonna look a hot mess.

653
00:52:49,208 --> 00:52:52,752
Uh-uh. You don't want
to get too big, Ja'Meya.

654
00:52:55,089 --> 00:52:58,508
So the doctor said
you're doing good. OK?

655
00:52:58,676 --> 00:53:00,635
You stop being all that,
'cause he said you were doing good.

656
00:53:00,803 --> 00:53:05,014
He told me you were doing good.
Said, "She doing real good."

657
00:53:08,727 --> 00:53:12,146
You wasn't thinking,
and you made a big mistake.

658
00:53:18,696 --> 00:53:20,697
Don't cry.

659
00:53:20,865 --> 00:53:24,325
- I want to go home, Ma.
- I know, baby.

660
00:53:24,493 --> 00:53:29,247
You're going.
You're going, Ja'Meya.

661
00:53:40,801 --> 00:53:42,594
You're going home.

662
00:53:58,527 --> 00:54:00,153
lt'll be all right.

663
00:54:07,077 --> 00:54:09,454
I want you to work on
getting yourself together, OK?

664
00:54:09,622 --> 00:54:13,041
So you can come home.
Might not be but a month or two.

665
00:54:13,208 --> 00:54:15,668
- All right?
- OK.

666
00:54:17,212 --> 00:54:19,172
I'm going to go see
where the doctor's at.

667
00:54:19,340 --> 00:54:20,924
I'll see you in a bit.

668
00:54:33,479 --> 00:54:35,021
As you're voting,
vote for the candidates

669
00:54:35,189 --> 00:54:36,439
you can trust and rely on.

670
00:54:36,607 --> 00:54:38,608
This is not a popularity contest.

671
00:54:38,776 --> 00:54:40,401
If we work together
to show how great we can be

672
00:54:40,569 --> 00:54:41,819
with our behavior and grades,

673
00:54:41,987 --> 00:54:43,696
we can make East Middle
a better school.

674
00:54:43,864 --> 00:54:45,990
Remember, a vote for Trevor
is the best vote ever.

675
00:54:46,158 --> 00:54:48,076
Thank you.

676
00:54:54,291 --> 00:54:56,501
Next, we have Chloe Albright.

677
00:54:59,964 --> 00:55:02,090
Hey, guys, my name is Chloe Albright.

678
00:55:02,257 --> 00:55:05,218
I am here giving this speech
because I would like to be

679
00:55:05,386 --> 00:55:07,345
East Middle's
next student body president.

680
00:55:11,558 --> 00:55:12,934
Zip that up, zip that up.

681
00:55:13,102 --> 00:55:16,562
It got ripped. It can't zip up.

682
00:55:31,495 --> 00:55:33,204
- Alex?
- What?

683
00:55:33,372 --> 00:55:34,998
Come here.

684
00:55:41,213 --> 00:55:43,923
What happened this week
on the bus? Anything?

685
00:55:46,927 --> 00:55:49,220
This high-schooler was strangling me,

686
00:55:49,388 --> 00:55:52,890
but I think he was just messing around.

687
00:55:53,058 --> 00:55:57,770
He, uh, calls me the b-word.

688
00:55:57,938 --> 00:56:00,857
- And he says that I'm...
- That's not messing around.

689
00:56:01,025 --> 00:56:06,279
- Well, he says I'm his b-word.
- That's not messing around.

690
00:56:06,447 --> 00:56:10,366
But I think when he strangles me
he's messing around.

691
00:56:10,534 --> 00:56:11,868
That's not messing around, either.

692
00:56:14,872 --> 00:56:16,873
- OK.
- Who knows, next year

693
00:56:17,041 --> 00:56:19,417
this high school kid,
instead of picking on you,

694
00:56:19,585 --> 00:56:22,253
is gonna then pick on
your little sister.

695
00:56:22,421 --> 00:56:24,797
And what are you gonna do about it?

696
00:56:24,965 --> 00:56:27,050
'Cause you're her big brother.

697
00:56:28,385 --> 00:56:30,762
You can't let this stuff go on.

698
00:56:33,348 --> 00:56:36,434
'Cause then people just start
seeing you as a punching bag.

699
00:56:40,022 --> 00:56:41,731
Nobody respects a punching bag.

700
00:56:41,899 --> 00:56:45,026
Well, if Maya gets picked on,
I'll tell somebody about it.

701
00:56:45,194 --> 00:56:48,988
- But if I get picked on...
- You should stop it now.

702
00:56:50,824 --> 00:56:54,827
You're starting to make me
scared to go to middle school.

703
00:56:54,995 --> 00:56:56,412
Why?

704
00:56:56,580 --> 00:56:58,664
'Cause if you get picked on,
I'm gonna get picked on.

705
00:56:58,832 --> 00:57:02,085
I already get picked on at school
'cause you're my brother.

706
00:57:02,252 --> 00:57:04,212
Well, that makes a lot of sense.

707
00:57:06,381 --> 00:57:09,092
Why do you get picked on
'cause I'm your brother?

708
00:57:09,259 --> 00:57:10,927
That makes no sense at all.

709
00:57:11,095 --> 00:57:12,470
Kids don't like you at my school.

710
00:57:12,638 --> 00:57:14,806
They think you're creepy.

711
00:58:06,024 --> 00:58:07,483
Tonight, a tragic situation

712
00:58:07,651 --> 00:58:10,027
has shaken a small Oklahoma
town to its core.

713
00:58:10,195 --> 00:58:12,238
A Perkins boy, just 11 years old,

714
00:58:12,406 --> 00:58:15,158
believed to have been desperate
enough to take his own life.

715
00:58:15,325 --> 00:58:17,076
The very guns
that Ty had learned to respect,

716
00:58:17,244 --> 00:58:19,829
his family says, he turned on himself.

717
00:58:21,582 --> 00:58:25,168
At this time,
we're looking into all avenues

718
00:58:25,335 --> 00:58:28,713
to try to figure out
why this tragedy occurred.

719
00:58:28,881 --> 00:58:31,215
At this time, there's no indication

720
00:58:31,383 --> 00:58:33,050
that bullying was a factor.

721
00:58:33,218 --> 00:58:35,636
But despite
what the superintendent says,

722
00:58:35,804 --> 00:58:39,015
friends say Ty Field
was the victim of bullying.

723
00:58:39,183 --> 00:58:42,018
There was this kid
that picks on him all the time.

724
00:58:42,186 --> 00:58:45,730
He came up to him
and started being mean,

725
00:58:45,898 --> 00:58:47,732
and I told him that he needed to leave

726
00:58:47,900 --> 00:58:49,859
because we didn't want any problems.

727
00:58:50,027 --> 00:58:54,989
When I saw him last,
he was really sad and crying.

728
00:59:06,210 --> 00:59:08,044
You can do it.

729
00:59:08,212 --> 00:59:10,213
I don't want to, either.

730
00:59:10,380 --> 00:59:13,758
I'm right here and you're in my arms.

731
00:59:13,926 --> 00:59:17,637
- I know.
- We'll tuck him in one more time.

732
00:59:17,804 --> 00:59:20,598
We'll put him to bed.

733
00:59:25,896 --> 00:59:28,856
Tuck the baby in one more time.

734
01:00:09,481 --> 01:00:11,148
Everybody turn to face the casket.

735
01:00:11,316 --> 01:00:13,693
Pass it to the person next to you.

736
01:00:22,619 --> 01:00:25,288
I believe most strongly in my heart

737
01:00:25,455 --> 01:00:30,710
that when a child dies,
they go straight to be with God.

738
01:00:30,877 --> 01:00:33,337
They go straight to his presence.

739
01:00:35,173 --> 01:00:37,758
But what does that leave for us...

740
01:00:39,678 --> 01:00:43,347
...the ones who are left behind?

741
01:01:28,393 --> 01:01:29,977
We're just a couple of simple people.

742
01:01:30,145 --> 01:01:34,774
You know, we're... We're nobodies.

743
01:01:34,941 --> 01:01:37,651
I guarantee you if
some politician's kid did this

744
01:01:37,819 --> 01:01:40,988
because he was getting picked on
in a public school,

745
01:01:41,156 --> 01:01:44,408
you know, there'd be a law tomorrow.

746
01:01:44,576 --> 01:01:48,079
There'd be changes made tomorrow.

747
01:01:49,414 --> 01:01:51,165
You know? We're nobody.

748
01:01:52,751 --> 01:01:55,336
But we love each other,
and we loved our son.

749
01:02:10,102 --> 01:02:13,479
We'd go and work on our clubhouse.

750
01:02:13,647 --> 01:02:15,606
It's way back out in the woods,

751
01:02:15,774 --> 01:02:18,734
and no one but me and Ty
knows where it is.

752
01:02:27,536 --> 01:02:32,331
We would just entertain
ourselves for about five hours.

753
01:02:32,499 --> 01:02:35,084
It would feel like 30 minutes.

754
01:02:35,252 --> 01:02:37,586
Just hanging out, having a good time.

755
01:02:38,672 --> 01:02:41,966
Ty was just the coolest kid I knew.

756
01:02:45,011 --> 01:02:49,390
This, right here, is the main part
of it, right up here.

757
01:02:52,185 --> 01:02:57,231
When we got bored we'd go down in there
and hunt for rabbits and stuff.

758
01:03:00,777 --> 01:03:04,155
And then the secret part is way back
there that no one's allowed to see.

759
01:03:07,784 --> 01:03:11,036
Bullying's not cool.
And I'll tell you,

760
01:03:11,204 --> 01:03:14,165
in the second grade, I tried
to fit in with so many people

761
01:03:14,332 --> 01:03:16,333
that I was probably the biggest bully

762
01:03:16,501 --> 01:03:19,044
in the whole school,
when I was in second grade.

763
01:03:19,212 --> 01:03:21,797
But once I got into third...

764
01:03:21,965 --> 01:03:25,885
In third, I started to realize
what a jerk I was being to kids

765
01:03:26,052 --> 01:03:27,386
and what it could do.

766
01:03:27,554 --> 01:03:29,555
And then in fourth
I really started realizing

767
01:03:29,723 --> 01:03:31,515
that it's gonna hurt someone,

768
01:03:31,683 --> 01:03:33,642
so I decided to be cool with everyone.

769
01:03:38,607 --> 01:03:40,649
Even when people would bully him

770
01:03:40,817 --> 01:03:46,614
I'd, like, I'd get
so angry, and I could...

771
01:03:46,781 --> 01:03:50,284
I think I could have hurt those kids
so bad that done something to him.

772
01:03:50,452 --> 01:03:53,704
Like they'll push him down and say,
"Shut up, spaz. You're a spaz,"

773
01:03:53,872 --> 01:03:57,374
or throw him into a locker
or shove him into one.

774
01:03:57,542 --> 01:04:01,504
And I'd just, like, go to take off
after them and he'd be like,

775
01:04:01,671 --> 01:04:04,548
"Trey, it's not worth it.
Be better than them.

776
01:04:04,716 --> 01:04:08,052
It's all right." And then
he'd walk off with a smile.

777
01:04:08,220 --> 01:04:11,597
And I don't know how he could do it.

778
01:04:11,765 --> 01:04:14,808
He was way stronger than I was.

779
01:04:19,523 --> 01:04:23,526
If it was up to me, if I was
the king of the United States,

780
01:04:23,693 --> 01:04:26,403
I'd make it to where
there was no popularity,

781
01:04:26,571 --> 01:04:31,075
everyone was equal,
because that's how it should be.

782
01:04:40,544 --> 01:04:44,838
A rabbit. Me and Ty would
have been after that so quick.

783
01:04:50,971 --> 01:04:52,555
I wonder where it went.

784
01:04:56,059 --> 01:04:58,727
I just got rain in my eye!

785
01:05:01,856 --> 01:05:06,235
- I hate the rain.
- I love rain.

786
01:05:06,403 --> 01:05:08,237
I like it, like...

787
01:05:08,405 --> 01:05:10,489
You know what my philosophy is?

788
01:05:10,657 --> 01:05:12,950
My philosophy about rain is?

789
01:05:13,118 --> 01:05:15,661
You know how when people can't
hold it in anymore, they cry?

790
01:05:15,829 --> 01:05:17,121
That's what...!
Yeah, and they like...

791
01:05:17,289 --> 01:05:19,081
The world is taking so much in

792
01:05:19,249 --> 01:05:21,292
that it can't hold anymore,
that's why it rains.

793
01:05:21,459 --> 01:05:23,294
'Cause it's letting go.

794
01:05:23,461 --> 01:05:26,839
Lightning bolt!

795
01:05:27,007 --> 01:05:30,009
- Did you see it?
- No, rain got in my eye.

796
01:05:49,863 --> 01:05:51,488
That is so awesome.

797
01:05:51,656 --> 01:05:54,950
- I'm getting wet.
- Thunder is amazing.

798
01:06:00,165 --> 01:06:06,003
Tyler, Summer, Caitlin, Brooke...

799
01:06:06,171 --> 01:06:10,382
If I didn't have them...
I wouldn't be here.

800
01:06:10,550 --> 01:06:13,719
For sure, like 100 percent.

801
01:06:13,887 --> 01:06:17,348
They are everything
that makes me get up

802
01:06:17,515 --> 01:06:19,975
and walk in the doors
to school every morning.

803
01:06:21,019 --> 01:06:23,354
I couldn't do it without them.

804
01:06:27,651 --> 01:06:32,404
I've got my, what, four-foot-ten
girlfriend to protect me?

805
01:06:32,572 --> 01:06:35,199
She saw flowers.

806
01:06:35,367 --> 01:06:39,244
- Give me my shoes!
- No! That's Kelby's.

807
01:06:39,412 --> 01:06:41,038
She's more important than you.

808
01:06:45,418 --> 01:06:47,419
Jump and I'll catch you.

809
01:06:47,587 --> 01:06:49,463
Would you catch me?

810
01:06:52,509 --> 01:06:54,760
You know, I just
keep thinking that maybe

811
01:06:54,928 --> 01:06:59,473
I'm the one that is in this town
that can make a change.

812
01:07:05,605 --> 01:07:08,816
I don't want them to win,
and I don't want to back down,

813
01:07:08,983 --> 01:07:13,445
and maybe all it takes
is for one person to stand up.

814
01:07:15,865 --> 01:07:17,533
You're not just standing up for you.

815
01:07:17,701 --> 01:07:19,159
You're standing up for all the kids

816
01:07:19,327 --> 01:07:21,662
that go through this every single day.

817
01:07:31,673 --> 01:07:34,633
These are my special
little cherubs, right here,

818
01:07:34,801 --> 01:07:37,010
that are getting on these buses.

819
01:07:37,178 --> 01:07:39,012
These are the ones
that you pray every night

820
01:07:39,180 --> 01:07:41,098
that they get home safely.

821
01:07:54,738 --> 01:07:57,322
- Get your ass off my book bag.
- OK.

822
01:07:57,490 --> 01:07:59,825
- Here.
- Move! Move!

823
01:08:02,495 --> 01:08:04,955
I'll beat your ass.

824
01:08:08,293 --> 01:08:10,252
What?

825
01:08:14,507 --> 01:08:16,884
Why are you punching me?

826
01:08:17,051 --> 01:08:19,470
I'll use my cell phone, bitch.

827
01:08:21,264 --> 01:08:22,389
Little bitch.

828
01:08:22,557 --> 01:08:25,267
- Come on!
- No, no, no. Ow!

829
01:08:25,435 --> 01:08:27,686
- Bitch!
- Why you stabbing me with it?

830
01:08:29,105 --> 01:08:31,732
- Gonna knock your fish lips off!
- Bitch!

831
01:08:37,906 --> 01:08:39,948
- Give it to him hard.
- Bitch!

832
01:09:05,767 --> 01:09:08,143
I would've never guessed
in a million years it was that bad.

833
01:09:12,482 --> 01:09:15,484
Do you understand that, at some point,
you've gotten used to this?

834
01:09:15,652 --> 01:09:17,486
And I'm not.

835
01:09:17,654 --> 01:09:20,405
I'm not used to it
because I didn't know.

836
01:09:20,573 --> 01:09:22,825
And I'm not about to get used to it.

837
01:09:27,121 --> 01:09:29,665
Does it make you feel good
when they punch you?

838
01:09:29,833 --> 01:09:32,125
Or kick you? Or stab you?

839
01:09:32,293 --> 01:09:33,585
Do these things make you feel good?

840
01:09:33,753 --> 01:09:37,714
Well, no. Well, I don't know.

841
01:09:37,882 --> 01:09:41,301
I'm starting to think
I don't feel anything anymore.

842
01:09:45,974 --> 01:09:48,517
I don't understand, Alex.

843
01:09:50,645 --> 01:09:52,229
Friends are supposed
to make you feel good.

844
01:09:52,397 --> 01:09:55,440
That's the point of having them.

845
01:09:55,608 --> 01:09:59,653
It's someone else on the planet
you can connect with.

846
01:10:03,491 --> 01:10:07,160
Your only connection to these kids
is that they like to pound on you.

847
01:10:14,002 --> 01:10:17,462
If you... If you say
these people aren't my friends,

848
01:10:17,630 --> 01:10:20,507
then what friends do I have?

849
01:10:40,069 --> 01:10:43,530
I'd like to see Kim
or Paula or someone?

850
01:10:43,698 --> 01:10:44,698
- Are you guys together?
- Yes.

851
01:10:44,866 --> 01:10:46,533
OK.

852
01:10:48,369 --> 01:10:51,079
How can I help you guys?

853
01:10:51,247 --> 01:10:54,124
My voice is shaking.
I'm very upset.

854
01:10:54,292 --> 01:10:57,544
I'm gonna be honest. I'm upset enough I
don't want him to ride the bus anymore.

855
01:10:57,712 --> 01:11:00,339
- What bus is he on?
- Fifty-four.

856
01:11:00,506 --> 01:11:02,966
- OK.
- It's absolutely not acceptable.

857
01:11:03,134 --> 01:11:05,636
I mean, they're
stabbing him with pencils,

858
01:11:05,803 --> 01:11:07,930
and choking him, and...

859
01:11:08,097 --> 01:11:13,810
Buses are notoriously bad places
for lots of kids.

860
01:11:15,480 --> 01:11:17,064
I... You know, I wish I could say

861
01:11:17,231 --> 01:11:19,733
I could make it stop on that,
but I'm not gonna lie to you.

862
01:11:19,901 --> 01:11:24,947
I can't. Um, but what we can do
is we can get him on another bus.

863
01:11:26,491 --> 01:11:29,993
So if I put him on another bus
I have, what, little to no guarantee

864
01:11:30,161 --> 01:11:31,954
that he'll be safe on that bus, either?

865
01:11:32,121 --> 01:11:34,581
When I was on the bus,
when I was a kid,

866
01:11:34,749 --> 01:11:36,625
if you got out
of your seat, they pulled over,

867
01:11:36,793 --> 01:11:40,504
the whole world stopped until
everybody sat down and shut up.

868
01:11:40,672 --> 01:11:44,049
How come they don't do anything now?
They just drive.

869
01:11:44,217 --> 01:11:47,135
Like, there should be
more responsibility than that.

870
01:11:47,303 --> 01:11:49,429
She's...

871
01:11:49,597 --> 01:11:51,848
It's gotta be heard, at least,

872
01:11:52,016 --> 01:11:54,768
and they're up, running up
and down the hall of the bus.

873
01:11:54,936 --> 01:11:57,062
Now, I've ridden 54.

874
01:11:58,189 --> 01:11:59,940
I've been on that route.

875
01:12:00,108 --> 01:12:02,275
I've been on a couple of them.

876
01:12:02,443 --> 01:12:04,444
They are just as good as gold.

877
01:12:10,910 --> 01:12:13,078
I feel real bad that this happened.

878
01:12:13,246 --> 01:12:14,538
You send your kids to school
with the assumption

879
01:12:14,706 --> 01:12:16,206
that if they're out of your care,

880
01:12:16,374 --> 01:12:18,834
they're in someone else's
who is just as capable as you

881
01:12:19,002 --> 01:12:21,753
of keeping them safe,
and I don't feel like that.

882
01:12:21,921 --> 01:12:25,841
- He's not safe on that bus.
- I don't, either.

883
01:12:26,009 --> 01:12:29,678
It's hard. It is hard.
And you know what?

884
01:12:29,846 --> 01:12:32,180
This was my day on Thursday.

885
01:12:32,348 --> 01:12:35,058
This is my granddaughter
and her new baby brother.

886
01:12:35,226 --> 01:12:37,394
I'd be sitting there,
crying, just like you

887
01:12:37,562 --> 01:12:39,896
if anything happened to those two kids.

888
01:12:41,649 --> 01:12:44,860
See my new baby, huh?

889
01:12:47,238 --> 01:12:50,073
We don't want anything
to happen to these babies.

890
01:12:50,241 --> 01:12:52,659
Any of them.

891
01:12:52,827 --> 01:12:57,205
This is totally wrong, totally wrong
that this situation would happen.

892
01:12:57,373 --> 01:12:59,833
Absolutely. But...

893
01:13:00,001 --> 01:13:03,086
It just seems to me,
if it's a few kids, then...

894
01:13:03,254 --> 01:13:04,921
...you take away the few kids.

895
01:13:06,215 --> 01:13:09,843
You'll just have to trust me

896
01:13:10,011 --> 01:13:12,054
that we'll take care
of that other child.

897
01:13:12,221 --> 01:13:14,473
And I really am glad you came in.

898
01:13:17,477 --> 01:13:18,935
Come on.

899
01:13:20,313 --> 01:13:21,980
Goodbye, sweetie.

900
01:13:22,148 --> 01:13:23,315
- Thanks again.
- Thank you.

901
01:13:23,483 --> 01:13:25,442
- I'll talk to you later, OK?
- All right.

902
01:13:27,987 --> 01:13:31,073
We're sorry about this,
but we will take care of it.

903
01:13:32,700 --> 01:13:34,326
Wait for your mom.

904
01:13:34,494 --> 01:13:35,952
What did she say when we were leaving,

905
01:13:36,120 --> 01:13:38,538
"We'll take care of it"? I'm pretty sure
that's what she said in the fall.

906
01:13:38,706 --> 01:13:40,123
Yeah.

907
01:13:40,291 --> 01:13:44,127
She politicianed us.
She'd not gonna do anything.

908
01:13:57,975 --> 01:14:02,646
If something is not done
and the kids don't hear about it,

909
01:14:02,814 --> 01:14:06,066
it will say, "Oh, this is fine."

910
01:14:09,278 --> 01:14:11,071
What I'm doing is investigating

911
01:14:11,239 --> 01:14:13,198
what happened to Alex the other day.

912
01:14:13,366 --> 01:14:15,826
- Do you...
- Alex the red...

913
01:14:15,993 --> 01:14:17,953
...the red-haired one
or the blond-haired one?

914
01:14:18,121 --> 01:14:19,371
Can you tell me a little bit about it?

915
01:14:19,539 --> 01:14:21,456
'Cause I don't know,
really, much about it.

916
01:14:21,624 --> 01:14:23,792
I've seen people doing stuff to him,

917
01:14:23,960 --> 01:14:28,505
but I don't know nothing about,
like, what's really been going on.

918
01:14:28,673 --> 01:14:32,134
Have you ever seen
anything happen to him on the bus

919
01:14:32,301 --> 01:14:34,845
that would be considered hurtful?

920
01:14:35,012 --> 01:14:36,763
Not that I know of.

921
01:14:36,931 --> 01:14:41,476
Teddy and other people, like,
call him "fish face" on the bus.

922
01:14:41,644 --> 01:14:44,771
It's jokes and stuff,
and he even laughs about it.

923
01:14:44,939 --> 01:14:47,399
- So, yeah.
- OK.

924
01:14:48,401 --> 01:14:51,153
Hi, Jerry, come on in.

925
01:14:56,284 --> 01:14:58,994
I understand that you
haven't been getting along

926
01:14:59,162 --> 01:15:01,746
very well with Alex Hopkins.

927
01:15:04,083 --> 01:15:06,501
Um, sometimes we have, like,

928
01:15:06,669 --> 01:15:10,130
this kid from the high school
that picks on me and him.

929
01:15:11,382 --> 01:15:12,924
He's kinda chubby.

930
01:15:17,680 --> 01:15:21,016
Do you think that
the bus is very safe, Thomas?

931
01:15:21,184 --> 01:15:22,517
No.

932
01:15:24,187 --> 01:15:26,730
And have you ever hit him?

933
01:15:26,898 --> 01:15:30,650
Uh, yes, I have because
he's really made me mad.

934
01:15:32,320 --> 01:15:34,863
You will not be teasing anybody,

935
01:15:35,031 --> 01:15:37,073
or using bad words.

936
01:15:37,241 --> 01:15:39,826
OK.

937
01:15:39,994 --> 01:15:43,830
You tell me "OK,"
and I'll believe it when I see it.

938
01:15:48,252 --> 01:15:50,462
You will be talking to Officer Mattus,

939
01:15:50,630 --> 01:15:53,924
and you probably won't be riding
that bus for the rest of the year

940
01:15:54,091 --> 01:15:58,053
if you think that it's OK
for you to hit people.

941
01:15:58,221 --> 01:16:02,641
"Go ahead, hit him,
attack him, do it."

942
01:16:05,144 --> 01:16:07,354
And that's going
in your discipline file.

943
01:16:07,521 --> 01:16:09,105
- OK.
- All right?

944
01:16:09,273 --> 01:16:11,608
I'll be watching you.

945
01:16:17,865 --> 01:16:23,620
What's one thing that you need
to start doing that you haven't done?

946
01:16:26,040 --> 01:16:28,959
- Tell someone.
- Yes.

947
01:16:29,126 --> 01:16:32,337
Do you trust us that we'll
do something when you tell us

948
01:16:32,505 --> 01:16:34,756
that someone's bothering you?

949
01:16:34,924 --> 01:16:40,679
Well, in sixth grade, uh, you, uh...

950
01:16:40,846 --> 01:16:44,516
...did nothing about, uh,

951
01:16:44,684 --> 01:16:46,768
Teddy sitting on my head.

952
01:16:49,355 --> 01:16:51,856
- On the bus?
- Yeah, there's, like, a little knob.

953
01:16:52,024 --> 01:16:54,609
Then, once you unlock that knob,

954
01:16:54,777 --> 01:16:56,778
you can, like, lift up the seats.

955
01:16:56,946 --> 01:17:01,491
And he lifted up the seat,
put my head in it, sat on my head.

956
01:17:01,659 --> 01:17:04,411
How do you know I didn't do anything?

957
01:17:06,122 --> 01:17:07,664
I don't know, 'cause...

958
01:17:07,832 --> 01:17:12,544
Alex, did he sit on
your head after you told me?

959
01:17:12,712 --> 01:17:15,088
- He...
- I did talk to him.

960
01:17:16,841 --> 01:17:19,384
And he didn't do that again, did he?

961
01:17:35,735 --> 01:17:38,111
Come on, pop the trunk.

962
01:17:52,585 --> 01:17:55,670
I'm home! Whoo!

963
01:18:00,885 --> 01:18:03,303
I'm at home!

964
01:18:16,692 --> 01:18:19,527
The house looks so better.

965
01:18:19,695 --> 01:18:23,073
Oh! It looks so different.

966
01:18:30,915 --> 01:18:32,582
Ooh!

967
01:18:32,750 --> 01:18:34,626
Ooh-whee.

968
01:18:37,254 --> 01:18:40,507
Mom, the house looks so pretty.

969
01:18:40,674 --> 01:18:44,427
- Huh?
- It looks so pretty.

970
01:18:44,595 --> 01:18:46,262
- What?
- It's just like my first time here.

971
01:18:46,430 --> 01:18:47,597
Why do you keep turning the lights off?

972
01:18:47,765 --> 01:18:49,724
Oh, my bad.

973
01:19:06,951 --> 01:19:12,122
"Sometimes sweetness and love
is all you need.

974
01:19:12,289 --> 01:19:17,419
Dear Mother, I want to thank you
for all you have given me:

975
01:19:17,586 --> 01:19:20,088
love, trust, care, help, fun, life.

976
01:19:20,256 --> 01:19:22,632
Happy Mother's Day.

977
01:19:23,634 --> 01:19:25,927
This coupon is good for one chore.

978
01:19:26,095 --> 01:19:30,098
This coupon is good
for one breakfast in bed.

979
01:19:30,266 --> 01:19:33,643
This coupon is good
for three days of fun."

980
01:19:44,864 --> 01:19:49,159
Mmm.

981
01:19:51,412 --> 01:19:52,954
Kinda sucks that it's Mother's Day.

982
01:19:53,122 --> 01:19:55,206
I don't feel like
a very good mother today.

983
01:19:57,209 --> 01:20:00,628
Come here. Come here.

984
01:20:10,598 --> 01:20:12,932
Alex, he just can't fit in.

985
01:20:13,100 --> 01:20:14,809
He tries.

986
01:20:14,977 --> 01:20:19,147
He just comes across
so weird to people, you know?

987
01:20:19,315 --> 01:20:22,734
What really ticks me off is, like,

988
01:20:22,902 --> 01:20:25,153
if they got to know him,

989
01:20:25,321 --> 01:20:28,448
he'd probably be the most
devoted friend they ever had.

990
01:20:32,244 --> 01:20:34,537
I'm sure we haven't made
things easier here, huh?

991
01:20:34,705 --> 01:20:37,499
If he came home and told us
this stuff, on a regular basis,

992
01:20:37,666 --> 01:20:41,377
when it happened,
then we would've known.

993
01:20:41,545 --> 01:20:43,671
I imagine the only thing worse than...

994
01:20:45,341 --> 01:20:47,592
...him crying or breaking down
in front of those boys

995
01:20:47,760 --> 01:20:48,843
when they're beating
the crap out of him

996
01:20:49,011 --> 01:20:51,387
is having to come home and tell you.

997
01:21:00,231 --> 01:21:01,898
He wants to be you.

998
01:21:02,066 --> 01:21:03,900
Never sees you cry.

999
01:21:14,453 --> 01:21:15,787
Well, the next time he's around,

1000
01:21:15,955 --> 01:21:17,914
I'm gonna punch you hard
and you start crying.

1001
01:21:24,380 --> 01:21:29,551
Um, Mom? Can I ride
my roller skates?

1002
01:21:29,718 --> 01:21:31,386
- If you change your pants.
- OK.

1003
01:21:31,554 --> 01:21:33,972
If you fall, I don't
want you to rip your slacks.

1004
01:21:41,313 --> 01:21:44,983
May I have your attention,
please, for afternoon announcements.

1005
01:21:45,150 --> 01:21:47,569
This is the last day
of school for everyone.

1006
01:21:47,736 --> 01:21:51,489
And we want to wish you all
a safe, happy, fun summer,

1007
01:21:51,657 --> 01:21:53,700
and we can't wait
to see you in the fall.

1008
01:21:53,867 --> 01:21:56,077
Why do you always have
your hair like that? Like...

1009
01:21:56,245 --> 01:21:59,247
Like, my bangs are weird.

1010
01:22:03,043 --> 01:22:05,295
OK.

1011
01:22:07,047 --> 01:22:09,882
Hold on, let me get your shirt still.

1012
01:22:18,100 --> 01:22:20,101
- Thank you.
- Hey, can I sign your shirt?

1013
01:22:20,269 --> 01:22:21,769
Sure.

1014
01:22:27,276 --> 01:22:29,277
Do we get our things today?

1015
01:22:29,445 --> 01:22:31,070
What is that?

1016
01:22:31,238 --> 01:22:34,198
- I don't know.
- Dumb, probably.

1017
01:22:53,636 --> 01:22:58,014
I don't believe in luck,
but I believe in hope.

1018
01:23:03,145 --> 01:23:06,189
Right there and right there.
There's the twins right there.

1019
01:23:06,357 --> 01:23:09,484
Rebecca... Oh!
I can't tell them apart!

1020
01:23:11,362 --> 01:23:13,696
There's Fatima, right there.

1021
01:23:13,864 --> 01:23:16,824
I asked her if I could
have a dollar at lunch

1022
01:23:16,992 --> 01:23:21,788
'cause I wanted to buy a switch,
but she said, "Maybe."

1023
01:23:21,955 --> 01:23:24,248
She has a cute nose.

1024
01:23:27,169 --> 01:23:28,836
Girls are like candy.

1025
01:23:29,004 --> 01:23:32,256
Sometimes you want,
like, a Hershey's bar,

1026
01:23:32,424 --> 01:23:34,175
sometimes you want a Snickers bar.

1027
01:23:34,343 --> 01:23:36,969
You can't really tell
which one you want.

1028
01:23:42,017 --> 01:23:45,478
Sometimes you want, like, a popsicle.

1029
01:23:49,066 --> 01:23:52,819
It's a complicated feeling.

1030
01:24:39,491 --> 01:24:41,075
One more week.

1031
01:24:44,663 --> 01:24:48,124
When you look back and you wonder
where the year has gone...

1032
01:24:51,295 --> 01:24:54,338
...and what it would be like
if Tyler was here.

1033
01:24:56,091 --> 01:24:58,009
How would he be?

1034
01:24:58,177 --> 01:25:00,303
How much would he have changed?

1035
01:25:01,764 --> 01:25:03,556
You just don't know.

1036
01:25:18,197 --> 01:25:21,616
Yeah, you know, I went in thinking
it was gonna be a new year,

1037
01:25:21,784 --> 01:25:23,576
and people were used to me.

1038
01:25:23,744 --> 01:25:29,916
And I went into class, and the class was
already full and I sat down,

1039
01:25:30,083 --> 01:25:32,627
and everyone around me moved seats.

1040
01:25:32,795 --> 01:25:34,670
Like every single person.

1041
01:25:34,838 --> 01:25:36,964
I was the only one
sitting in a little circle.

1042
01:25:37,925 --> 01:25:39,217
That was enough.

1043
01:25:47,309 --> 01:25:51,395
Maybe there's another place
I can go try to make a difference.

1044
01:25:52,940 --> 01:25:55,149
We've decided, as of this week,

1045
01:25:55,317 --> 01:25:57,068
that we've pulled her
out of school here.

1046
01:25:58,946 --> 01:26:00,363
I never knew what the saying,

1047
01:26:00,531 --> 01:26:02,031
"You don't know what
a person's been through

1048
01:26:02,199 --> 01:26:03,783
until you walk a mile
in their shoes."

1049
01:26:03,951 --> 01:26:07,995
I never really understood
the depth of that meaning

1050
01:26:08,163 --> 01:26:10,248
until I had a gay child.

1051
01:26:12,209 --> 01:26:16,838
It has made me completely reevaluate
who and what I am as a human being...

1052
01:26:18,340 --> 01:26:21,217
...to see the ugliness
that has come out.

1053
01:26:24,972 --> 01:26:28,266
It took me a while to realize
that you can't change it all at once.

1054
01:26:28,433 --> 01:26:31,143
It's gonna take multiple people,

1055
01:26:31,311 --> 01:26:33,855
at separate stages of people's lives,

1056
01:26:34,022 --> 01:26:36,941
talking and making a difference.

1057
01:26:37,109 --> 01:26:40,152
It's not just gonna take me.

1058
01:26:52,875 --> 01:26:54,750
It's a little one-room schoolhouse

1059
01:26:54,918 --> 01:26:58,838
that my grandmother
taught at a long time ago.

1060
01:26:59,006 --> 01:27:03,801
And my family's been
out in this area for over 100 years.

1061
01:27:03,969 --> 01:27:08,055
Our farm's a Centennial Oklahoma Farm.

1062
01:27:11,768 --> 01:27:13,519
It's Progress.

1063
01:27:17,566 --> 01:27:19,191
This is home.

1064
01:27:21,320 --> 01:27:25,865
Ty's name is in the foundation
of the house we're living in.

1065
01:27:26,033 --> 01:27:27,700
He helped me build it.

1066
01:27:27,868 --> 01:27:31,787
He worked his butt off.
I can't go nowhere.

1067
01:27:50,599 --> 01:27:54,393
This is where worldwide
organization takes place,

1068
01:27:54,561 --> 01:27:58,648
for a guy that just got on the Internet
about six weeks ago.

1069
01:28:00,525 --> 01:28:03,945
It's a pretty amazing thing.

1070
01:28:04,112 --> 01:28:05,738
The idea came to me,

1071
01:28:05,906 --> 01:28:08,240
and I started this group,
Stand for the Silent,

1072
01:28:08,408 --> 01:28:11,953
in Ty's memory,
to take on bullying, and...

1073
01:28:12,120 --> 01:28:15,873
...I threw the idea out there,
and it took off like wildfire.

1074
01:28:18,877 --> 01:28:21,504
The Internet's an amazing thing.

1075
01:28:21,672 --> 01:28:26,968
We... We reached out to parents
that have lost kids

1076
01:28:27,135 --> 01:28:30,596
in Illinois and Texas and Alabama.

1077
01:28:30,764 --> 01:28:34,141
Parents of kids that are being
bullied all over the world.

1078
01:28:36,269 --> 01:28:37,812
As early as this morning,

1079
01:28:37,980 --> 01:28:41,607
we have received
messages and phone calls

1080
01:28:41,775 --> 01:28:45,987
of three more rallies
that we didn't know about.

1081
01:28:53,453 --> 01:28:56,455
They don't have power out there,
on the south lawn of the Capitol,

1082
01:28:56,623 --> 01:28:59,125
so we had to make our own.

1083
01:29:11,013 --> 01:29:13,180
- That's good.
- OK.

1084
01:29:16,101 --> 01:29:18,019
- Ready?
- Yeah.

1085
01:29:42,627 --> 01:29:45,588
At this time,
I'd like to release the balloons

1086
01:29:45,756 --> 01:29:50,009
in honor of kids that have
taken their lives from bullying

1087
01:29:50,177 --> 01:29:53,304
throughout the United States
and from other countries.

1088
01:29:55,182 --> 01:29:57,058
Ryan Halliton.

1089
01:29:59,102 --> 01:30:00,936
Montana Lance.

1090
01:30:02,564 --> 01:30:04,565
Brandon Swartwood.

1091
01:30:06,651 --> 01:30:08,486
Scott Wells.

1092
01:30:10,155 --> 01:30:12,114
Ty Smalley.

1093
01:30:12,282 --> 01:30:14,116
And the last one...

1094
01:30:14,284 --> 01:30:18,996
...is my son, which is
very dear to me, is Tyler.

1095
01:30:39,684 --> 01:30:42,770
Be the difference.
Go out and find that one child

1096
01:30:42,938 --> 01:30:47,358
that new kid who just moved to town,
standing over there by himself.

1097
01:30:47,526 --> 01:30:49,568
Be his friend.

1098
01:30:49,736 --> 01:30:51,779
Smile.

1099
01:30:53,490 --> 01:30:56,784
Be willing to help him up
when he's pushed down.

1100
01:30:56,952 --> 01:30:59,954
Be willing to stand up for him.

1101
01:31:00,122 --> 01:31:02,873
If we all do it together,
we will change the world.

1102
01:31:03,041 --> 01:31:05,501
It starts right here, right now.

1103
01:31:07,921 --> 01:31:10,005
Let's get this done.

1104
01:31:10,173 --> 01:31:12,091
Whoo!

1105
01:31:13,844 --> 01:31:15,594
Thank you, guys.

1106
01:31:23,854 --> 01:31:27,398
I'd like to thank each and every
one of you for showing up tonight

1107
01:31:27,566 --> 01:31:30,234
to support these wonderful
young men and women

1108
01:31:30,402 --> 01:31:32,987
in their efforts to stop bullying.

1109
01:31:33,155 --> 01:31:36,115
I'd also like to say thank you

1110
01:31:36,283 --> 01:31:39,201
to all of those that
are holding vigils worldwide,

1111
01:31:39,369 --> 01:31:43,831
and they've worked their
tails off to make this happen.

1112
01:31:43,999 --> 01:31:48,043
They've done it out of love and
support and respect for others,

1113
01:31:48,211 --> 01:31:51,630
and love for not only
their own children,

1114
01:31:51,798 --> 01:31:55,801
they're doing it for you.
They're doing it for your kids.

1115
01:31:56,887 --> 01:31:59,221
They're doing it for each other.

1116
01:32:03,935 --> 01:32:07,813
These are my kids.
I care about every one of them

1117
01:32:07,981 --> 01:32:10,691
as if they were my own.

1118
01:32:36,676 --> 01:32:39,887
We all gotta continue
what we've started today.

1119
01:32:41,681 --> 01:32:45,351
I'm gonna kinda slide
into the background now, uh...

1120
01:32:45,518 --> 01:32:50,689
Me and my wife,
we need some time to heal.

1121
01:32:50,857 --> 01:32:56,362
I will never, ever stop fighting
bullying wherever I find it.

1122
01:32:56,529 --> 01:32:59,156
I will fight bullying forever...

1123
01:33:00,492 --> 01:33:02,701
...because my son

1124
01:33:02,869 --> 01:33:06,997
will be 11 years old forever.

1125
01:33:07,874 --> 01:33:09,333
Thank you.

1126
01:33:14,965 --> 01:33:17,758
I believe had more kids stepped forward

1127
01:33:17,926 --> 01:33:20,761
when Tyler was being bullied,

1128
01:33:20,929 --> 01:33:23,764
and took a stand alongside of Tyler,

1129
01:33:23,932 --> 01:33:26,100
Tyler would still be here today.

1130
01:33:28,436 --> 01:33:30,604
Everything starts with one
and builds up.

1131
01:33:31,731 --> 01:33:34,650
And if we can continue
to increase the numbers...

1132
01:33:36,778 --> 01:33:40,948
...whether it be one by one,
two by two,

1133
01:33:41,116 --> 01:33:46,370
...eventually we have an army,
to where we can defeat anything.
