This kid who gets bullied is looking up guns online?

Okay well in my biology class we sit in groups (gr11) and i know, kiddish. But anyway, the teacher assigns the groups. I ended up at a table wherein I knew no one, but soon the 5 of us became good friends. (2 girls, 3 guys) Well 4 of us. The last one, a guy, actually gets bullied by my other groupmates. The thing is, I don't join the bullying but I don't really try to stop it, either. We've been sitting together for 4 mnths now. Anyway, last Friday I was at the school library ready to print some papers when I came across someone doing some online shopping. I didn't really care because it is obviously none of my business. But when I saw the shopping cart consisted of a gun, my heart dropped. Plus, the account belong to that kid who gets bullied at my table. I told the others, ASAP, of course, and now we're all scared. I mean, there's no telling what he'll do. He's quite and anti-social, so you never really know WHAT he's thinking.





Any advice, anyone? None of us want to die...

Tell the counselor at your school. The city I live in had a kid go and kill and decapitate a person and then burn his body and dump his head someplace different. Tell a counselor so they can look into it and maybe get him into counseling. This is obviously serious.





Not sure about the schools in Canada but I am sure there is someone in authority in the school that you can talk to. If you have to, you can go to the police too. In Canada, they take that sort of thing seriously.
Reply:Start with no more bullying. Youd think by now with all the school shootings you kids would wise up but I see hundreds of questions in here from kids who get bullied at school. Your friends need to apologize and start being nice, not just to him but all kids. I dont understand why you kids think its ok to be mean to each other.


Talk to him and be a friend. Everyone needs someone. Tell him what you saw too and if you feel this is a threat you should tell a teacher.
Reply:Share the matter wid some student advisor in ur skool nd start treatin' the bullied kid wid respect,when i was a kid i was bullied by 2 older guys nd even i had thots of hurtin' 'em.....DON'T EVER BULLY ANY1, IT'S D WORST THING TO DO!
Reply:Gosh! Get help right away. I'm 15, a year younger than you, but I know what it feels like to be in that kind of situation. You guys are just thinking, "Oh, it will blow over eventually. Let's just hope for the best". Or "He'll forget". Let me make this clear now: There is no "hope for the best" rubbish. There is no forgetting. I've been bullied before and to be honest, I thought of doing some pretty nasty things to the girls who bullied me. Your lives are in DANGER. How do you know what this kid is thinking? Ever hear of what happened at Virgina Tech. and the copy cat? What if this ends up like that all because you wouldn't report him to the AUTHORITY?! Please, for the sake of your life, your friends lives, and even the boy, get help. Talk to your guidance councilors, they're there for a reason, you know? Talk to the principal. Let them handle it from there.
Reply:You may want to convince the others to STOP BULLYING
Reply:Go to your principle NOW!!! Tell him what's been going on. Tell him everything. If you can't get your groupmates to come with you, go alone. Do not try to handle this alone. Also, tell your parents. Be honest with them and try to enlist their help. This kid needs help and you can help him by going to the principle.
Reply:Talk to an adult, NOW.





And for heaven's sake, tell the others to QUIT BULLYING PEOPLE. They shouldn't be mean to people in the first place, but if the only way that they'll stop is to be scared that they'll get shot, maybe they'll learn not to do something that can get them shot.
Reply:Tell a teacher, a guidence councelor and/or the police. If this kid is seriously thinking about gun violence, then you need to make sure he is stopped before he hurts anyone!
Reply:anonymously tell the principal
Reply:Absolutely do something..now! Tell your parents, tell a teacher, or call the police right away. Don't wait. This kind of stuff has been in the news lately, and people who are prone to this tend to copy cat....don't take a chance, get help.





And on another note, next time someone is bullied, stand up for them, help them out. Sometimes all they need is one friend, or even one person to be nice to them to change their attitude %26amp; give them hope.
Reply:Tell someone to talk to him right away. Principle, police, whatever it takes. Good Luck man and stay safe = )








Obviously this person is just buying a gun, or buying a gun to pull off a columbine repeat. I don't need to hear about one of those, so please tell someone right away. The kid needs someones attention.
Reply:Talk to a teacher/principal, to your parents and report the matter to the police for their information ASAP!!!!. Let them know that you want to be anonymous for your safety.
Reply:that's serious. i feel for u. u should've talked to him one on one right away and then told a counselor just in case. r u sure ratting him out right away was a good idea? he might interpret that as u guys ganging up to make fun of the freak. tell a professional right away.
Reply:Not to be rude but umm why dont you tell the cops?
Reply:Report your observation IMMEDIATELY to as many adults as possible, including the principal of your school, the teacher of that class, the police, and all of that group's parents. It's much, much better to report your concerns than to keep silent and "hope" nothing will actually happen. This is way too serious to "keep" secret among your workgroup in this class.





I hope you've learned a valuable lesson about bullying, too. Best of luck.
Reply:If it's in the US, the purchaser cannot have a weapon delivered directly to him, he must go through a federally registered firearms dealer.
Reply:Turn him in! It could save your life and your friends lives!!!
Reply:well first off it really was not any of the others business to know. I think you should confront him to get actual details if he seems standoffish what not, try to report it to higher level people as for example the teacher. There is no reason to spread gossip where there might of just been a misunderstanding. Or just tell the teacher.
