Those boys that did this to him they are on the down low with each other they are just jealous that you didn’t chose them to like
Brother don’t let these sis boys that call you names get to you live your life
they are jealous of you so keep your head up
You have my support ❤ I hope you keep being strong and yourself 🫡 lmk if you want me to go to California to protest 🪧 infront of your school – From New York
Prayers for you and your family, stay strong!!!
Kids will be kids, that's normal.
If you want the other guy to be regarded for what he believes comes naturally to him, you should know boys being 'bad' comes far more naturally to a far larger number of people — respect it or live with it — it's normal.
He needs to learn how to stand up for himself and fight. In this day and adge no kids are being tought to fight for them self. And that is sad becouse there are no real men today becouse of it.
Lgbtq bullies poeple too its on youtube so whats too cry here
Awe honey there cowards so sorry you have to deal with this don’t let garbage put you down and you know what spread there names everywhere there cowards they need to be called out 🇨🇦❤️🩹
Every generation for kids how they always be issues problem. They couldn't take a easy their paranoid if they don't learn behave they get handcuff for criminal record but they didn't care about it they waiting and do it again otherwise lock up in prison.
Where their respect?
Im so sorry you had to go through this Landon, you’re such a nice guy and you don’t deserve this hate. Always remember that Jesus loves you!
That guy who went to the door has a crush on you, no one takes that much time to research an addres, drive to the house and knock on the door, he definitely wants to tap that😂
He should move to Texas.
Of course the identity of the bullies is kept secret, and he face more trouble if he try to defend himself than the actuial bully and society call this justice. Landon should just take a baseball bat and get respected.
I don’t support the LGBT movement, but no one should be bullied or harassed
I'd love to meet his bullies in person myself. Would be fun 🙂
Homophobia is so dated. Those bullies clearly have too much time on their hands. Give them some community service to broaden their mindset.
Booty bandit throwing a fit
I'm highly myopic and wear coke bottles, so my nickname when younger was Cokehead, hence fools bullied me. When I turned 16 and I could legally own a shotgun, the bullying stopped after one bully found out I wasn't playing his games anymore. I wasn't prosecuted, as I was simply defending myself and the use of deadly force was justified because I'm considered to be disabled. So know your 2nd Amendment rights and exercise them, I guarantee the bullying will stop.
If the school takes no action they are in fact aligned with the bullying regardless of what they claim.
If bullying is an issue, if someone steps in and helps someone being bullied and takes out the bully, I bet the city will want to call the person helping…"a criminal" 😂
How sad. 🤔 never would have thought they would bully someone like that
Yoooh don’t worry you cute 🥰
I hope those bullies get exposed. Get a taste of their own medicine. In this day and age, I can’t believe this still happens. What kinda hillbilly parents do those bully kids have
Throw me a 100$ I’ll take care of your bullying problem
Awwwwwww poor little fairy 🧚
Grow t.f. Up!!🙄🤦🏻♂️ This is what happens when u allow so much access to inmature kids who have nothing Better to do…
Pathetic, no one should have to deal with this BS. The bullies need to get a fkg life. Live and let live.
Stay strong, son. These insecure, cowards are insignificant. Keep going on with your life. Soon enough, once you're out of school, things will get better. You'll find friends that are supportive and like-minded and you'll be happy. It might be a long road but don't give up. Don't give them what they want.
The parents are now the bullies.
The demand for this type of bullying is higher than the supply.
He should also file restraining orders and then can have them arrested when they come within so many feet of him or his property. Expose, name & publicly shame them is a must.
What a handsome kid! Hang in there. They’re dumb. You’re the man!
Those “bullies” need to be exposed & forced into counseling….
Maybe leave that crap in your bedroom like everyone else does. Don't push your sexual deviance on society
Handsome young man you have the support and love of the world! Stay brave and don’t let those horrible bullies bring you down
love how the school is only launching an investigation after he posted a video that went viral and media contacted the school
Stay strong we all have been bullied and or threatened.
Awe…stay strong ❤
☆FORGIVE ME BUT IF YOU HAVE NOTHING NICE TO SAY THEN DONT SAY NOTHING AT ALL☆FOR ALL HEARTLESS•WASTE OF SPACE BULLIES CAN GO CHOKE ON A D**K FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART☆NEVER BE AFRAID TO ASK FOR HELP OR ADVICE IF YOU ARE BEING THREATENED OR BULLIED☆YOU'RE NOT ALONE☆
Isn’t it great to see the blatant raw hatred that people have within their minds and body’s for no other reason than because of someone else’s sexual orientation!!! Freaking unreal 🙄
I wish a mf would pull up in my house and threaten my kid
Thank you for speaking up! Sorry you felt the need to And couldn’t deal with it yourself
Bulling is NEVER ok anywhere, but who literally goes to someone’s house to bully them?! My heart and love goes out to this amazing young man.
Is he homosexual?
This is just a reminder everyone that we have not achieved acceptance in the right for equality, even after a century has passed.
Right now we are in the age of Tolerance where many people do not accept the new changes but are tolerating it and we still have quite a ways to go to move into full acceptance, when it comes to equality for all.
It saddens me that true acceptance will not be achieved within my lifetime but hope that it comes sooner rather than later.
Lol.
We used to play knock knock.
Yelling helter skeltor.
We used to call people all kinda of things.
People are so thin skinned. And maybe it's the truth.
So what. 🤣🤣
😢😢
These bullies are amatuers. Where I come from they never let themselves be recorded or face consequences. Sorry bro but you're opposition is completely incompetent.
