Bullies bully.

I found this quote at Shiyun's blog. 

I think people bully others because they want others to think that they are powerful and strong. They want to let others know that they are weak and they are not able to hurt them. I think people also bully others because they feel bad about themselves, so they hurt others instead to make themselves feel better. Bullies don't want to look weak and in the inside they feel that they are below everyone, ..."

This quote of Shiyun can relate to the ASTI Constitution. In one of the rules it says that we have to treat everyone equally, so it means that we should not bully one another. Shiyun’s quote is relatable to the constitution by not bullying one another. By explaining her quote, people bully one another because they do not want to show their true feelings, so they demonstrate it in terrible actions. Bullies also bully not just because of how they are feeling, but also to make other people feel awful about them-selves. This happens mostly to people that are innocent because they are an easy to target. For example, if you are student that does well in school and suddenly an another student makes fun about something that you did not do, soon enough, the entire class well mock and laugh at you. Bullies do this because they want a special type of attention from their fellow peers. It is the easiest way for them to express of how they are feeling and to think that they are superior of all their classmates. This reconnects to our ASTI Constitution, of how we need to treat everyone fairly and think before you speak or act. By bullying a student or a person can make a big impact on a person’s personality. Like, when a student bully another kid, all the other student knows that the child has no manner and know that they have to be careful around the bully. That we need to think and before we act and that we need to speak up for yourself and others. This explains that we need to help the others that are being bullied and that we need to show we are confident enough to tell our leaders about bullies that are happening. We need to speak for ourselves and for others, that we could stop bullying in our areas. This is an ASTI Constitution: speak up for yourself and others, think before you speak or act, and accept others for who they are
