The gloves are off.

Just... heart wrenching.  Reported through Wonkette, the CNN coverage of an eleven year old girl, Jocelynn Rojo Carranza, who took her own life  after being mercilessly bullied by students in her school about the immigration status of her parents.  

Words... actions... have consequences.  When the youngest among us are so petrified of what... Trump... is going to do to them... echoed and escalated into threats by those within their community... with impunity... 

I have zero fucks to give to anyone who supported this, encourages this behavior, didn't want to get involved, stood aside out of protest or was just too chicken shit to, like, pay the fuck attention through this past election. 

The gloves are off.  The fucking gloves are off.

I agree -- heart breaking and disgraceful conduct on the part of all the bullies and enablers. May that little girl rest in peace and her parents get justice.

It is just so... damn sad that 1) This story got ZERO traction in the mainstream media and 2) Yet more shit has already hit since that buried any chance of this becoming an inflection point.

How... do we fix this?
