Back when I was in school,if a person said something to you that was bad you just told them fuck off, and everything was fine. Just like with message boards. Kids today need the same attitude,not some crazy dude that is charging schools $6500 for a lecture.

That guys a genius. He's taking advantage of all of the soft children and schools/parents being so scared, and sensitive about bullying recently. $6500 every few days to act like a retard for a few hours.. Anyone would take that job.

It seems like he is more an entertainer then anything. Good on him, though, I'm sure I would have liked to see his presentation as a kid.


Considering that Lady gaga and al. gets far more for doing far less, I can't fault him for doing what he does.

Well, as the movie Idiocracy brilliantly illustrated, rather than getting smarter, the world may actually be getting dumber. Why teach kids to be leaders, when only 1% of the population gets this privilege anyway?

K, I lol'ed watching this.

This is like charging $6,500 for a Wordpress template + 5 pages + Social Media Icons.

Good deal.

I wish they would realise, its not that the kids are weak or soft, just the fact that if you fight back you both get in trouble.

Where did you read the news? CNN deleted that post.

Whew, he's really a genius you tell!

Can't knock the hustle. This guy was up and making cash the second bullying became a topic... and now he'll have some great street cred with all of the media attention he's getting.

Price will be $10k before long

such BS...

Bullies are everywhere. Its a part of life... You will always have a stronger body forcing you weather its government, bigger competitors, etc etc...
Get used to it, and learn to react accordingly.

Someone needs to make a wso on getting hired/contracts with local government agencies.
