Bullying: it hurts

Diego Sandoval confesses to being a former bully.  He was bigger than other kids; by second grade he used intimidation and threats to get his way.  He investigates the landscape of bullying through interviews and his personal experience.  The stories reveal that victims of bullying often end up getting in fights, often get blamed for the conflict, and even turn into bullies themselves.  "It made me feel bigger and better than everyone else, and I convinced myself (that it was OK) to do it.  I was a very popular guy. I saw it as a joke, but I didn’t know the bullets I shot through my words would cause harm.”  The feature story is on We'Ced.bullying
