Little Zangief: Casey Heynes Unloads on Bully

this guy is a goddamn hero

Casey is legendary! #Anti-Bully

The school once again showed extreme stupidity to punish self-defense. Again and again they push the victims of bullying into the mud with the very rules they claim "Protect" them.The only ones harmed are the bullied children who can't fight back for fear of reprisal by the people they are supposed to trust, and the occasional kid that accidentally brings a nail-clipper to school or draws comic-book/starwars characters engaged in a gunfight.

I don't believe in violence but I will raise my daughter with the belief that she can physically defend herself if someone dares to lay a hand on her. Casey clearly was being cornered and punched and he had every right to defend himself. The problem here is what because Casey is the bigger kid he can take a punch but when he defends himself and the little guy gets hurt? Please the little guy deserved it and I was kind of hoping he punched out the little guys friend as well who walked up to him it would of set a double example. Quite frankly if I was Casey's parents I would sue the school board for suspending my child who was clearly defending himself. Unfortunately sometimes bully's need to learn that there are consequences to laying your hands on somebody else otherwise later in life if they try bullying someone they could get killed Casey did this little idiot a favor: Life lesson taught here for the bully: you physically harm someone your going to get mashed up and to the person getting bullied : Don't put up with it anymore don't be afraid to defend yourself to a certain extent. Good for you Casey!

How do the dare criticise the big kid. He had all the right to defend himself. My little-big hero.

you dont beleive in violence?well heres your evidence right here.

he got suspended!? boo! fuck that school! what casey did was right!

This was absolutely wonderful.  I am 19 years old and I wish I was him.  Flat out, he is my hero, let his tale be told, the once quiet, meek and overall non violent mass of victims from bullying finally had someone stand up and fight back.  Good job kid, you are my hero forever...... 

I am glad this kid fought back.  Honestly, what we do not know is how long that little kid has been bullying "little Zangief."  For all we know, it could have been more than a year.  Seeing this kid fight back is the best thing, because he finally gave back some of what the oppressor gave the oppressed. To the little kid that got owned: That's what people call "karma," kid.  You give out pain, you get it back tenfold.

i wholeheartedly agree.  i was bullied throughout grammar school..  that's 8 years.  and no form of reporting did any good.  Even the principal asked me if i was telling the truth..  seriously?  I was too passive to fight, but i should have.  They were pipsqueeks and i was tall.  It totally screwed with my head.  the bully deserved a beating and the victim should be rewarded..  there's no need for self defense, if there's no violence to begin with.  all blame to the bully.  if i had acted sooner, it would have changed my life for the better.  i feel like i'm 10+ years behind socially.  i'm good now, but how much of my life was lost/delayed?  the way i am now.. if i saw a child being bullied firsthand..  i'd jump in and pound that bully good... then i'd pound his parents.. and work up the line.. until the whole dna chain was affected.  fighting is the only way.

For the win!When I was a little girl, this older girl moved in next door and started harassing me so bad that I didn't even dare venture outside. I told my parents, who of course went to HER parents, who then accused ME of being the bully and their own daughter the victim. WTF?! This continued until she made one fatal mistake: leaving me alone and moving onto my little sister.Oh, HELL NO!I just snapped. The minute I saw my sister crying, I stormed outside and, despite being barely half her size, kicked her sorry ass in a fit of rage. I'm pretty sure I knocked out a tooth. Her parents came to our house complaining, my parents told them to fuck off and took me and my sister to McDonalds.

Same here. No end to the torment until I stood up for myself. People have to learn there are real repercussions, not just the scolding our nanny states offer.

I showed my wife and son this video and we are so proud of Casey, the little kid got what he deserved. I have always taught my children to stand up for themselves and more importantly to stand up for those who cant or wont.Violence doesn't always solve everything but it some cases its entirely understandable. This is one of those cases. Hopefully, the bully also learnt a valuable if somewhat painful life lesson.Well done, Casey!

I completely agree with you. The school should be sued for suspending Casey. Because Casey is bigger than the bully people will see this as wrong, which is nonsense. People argue that because he "is able to take a punch" that he shouldn't react like that, they are idiots. What Casey did could also reasonably be argued to have been legally acceptable.

Casey Heynes represents ALL children who have been bullied and were unable to defend themselves. Let's remember those kids who committed suicide because they could not take the bullying any longer. Let's give the medal of valor to Casey for not only defending himself against all bullies but also for representing those unable to defend themselves.Casey you are my HERO.

Let me tell you WHY Columbine happens.  Some people have said that this should not be sanctions BECAUSE it will LEAD to situations like Columbine.  I call BULL.  Columbine happens BECAUSE people walk away!  When people walk away, bullies see them as weak.  The bully will attack again.  You will be tormented.  You will get angry.  Every time you walk away, you will become angrier and angrier.  Until one day, you are 18 years old, miserable, socially stunted and have nothing.  You buy a gun and you do some crazy things.  THAT is why Columbine happened, because those guys walked away so many times and let the anger build up.  How to REALLY solve bullying?  Nip it at the bud.  Take it out, let your anger out before it controls you.  Make the BULLY walk away.  As the victim if you walk away, you signal to the bully that you are easy prey.  You will be tormented again and again.  MAKE them walk away.  Casey was punched 3 times before he attacked back.  I think that is enough self-control.  He held back, but when they kept going, he defended himself.  I see nothing wrong with that.  If he punched the kid right away, it's more of a fight, but he clearly held himself back.  What more do you ask of him?  What if he bent over, pulled down his pants and gave the bully a paddle?  Would that have pleased the school? And telling the teacher never works.  Don't kid yourselves.  Teachers can only teach, they have very little power in such cases because our culture doesn't allow it.  When you tell a teacher on someone, you become a snitch, a rat.  You become a wuss, and it will only make the bully angrier.  So you will be bullied even more.  The teachers would often say it is a childs fight and ignore it, because they don't want to get involved, knowing that the only way to solve it is to fight back, but as teachers they can't tell the kids this.  So instead, they tell kids to walk away.  It should be known that walking away only means the bully will come back tomorrow, it's not like when you walk away the bully thinks "oh shit, this dude is crazy, i better watch out and never touch him again."  Why would they think that if you walk away?  They'll think you're easy and attack you again tmr, and maybe push even further to see how far they can go.  Walking away is what teachers tell kids because it means the teacher doesn't have to deal with it, because once you walk away, the teacher doesn't have to punish the bully either.  Walking away actually doesn't work, it's only taught to kids because it makes life simpler for adults.  The ONLY thing that actually solves bullying for the kid, and makes life easier on the kid, is to fight back.

My brother got punched by a bully over here in Australia. They said as it happened at the bus stop, they couldn't do anything about it. So the school done nothing about it, so my parents pressed charges against the kid for assault. He was charged and found guilty. Next thing we know the kid was at another school.

This guy did the right thing. Self-defense.I was bullied in school also and I guess I have learnt two things with it.The first is that gratuitous violence isn't good. You shouldn't fight back only for the fight. This is what bullies are attracted to and it's stupid & damaging.The second, you're mostly at your own. You need to resort to real actions of defense sometimes in life, maybe you get in trouble and you should be ready to take it.For instance, a regular bullier I confronted several times (near the equivalent to 7th grade I guess) insisted in bullying me even thought I started to be more calm and ignore anything idiots did to provoke me. Then he one day had exams in my classroom and at the break he started saying stupid things. I've tried to ignore, didn't work. He started throwing his heavy eraser at me. I think I've got it and throw at the window (the class was in three fights of stairs, I think), then he decided to get my notebook (paper one, not a computer) and asked me if it was mine & dropped it on the floor & started to jump in front of it. I don't remember what was the movie I just watched, but I was inspired that day and just went straight in front of him and told "yes, it is". Next thing was my feet in his hand breaking his wrist. He was down crying as a kid in the floor and his colleagues went straight for him.I was suspended (so bad I didn't have my convictions about property rights back then because maybe, just maybe, I could have used good argumentation to revert this saying it was legitimate defense) and almost no other time had any problem at school (and boy, I used to have a lot). I just was away for one day (even thought I ignored and went to my judo and basket practice as if nothing had happened, just missed the next day classes, instead I went to school and made some exercises in the officer's room).So what I'd recommend to anyone suffering from bullying is this. Keep calm, don't enter in fight you can get hurt (but if you have to hurt some bullier to protect your self or your property, don't hesitate: you've got the right to do so). Also, don't hurt just for fun or you're being a nuthead.For sure bullies will either leave you alone or confront you. If they do leave you alone, great. No one hurt. If they don't, react (but use only and only the fair necessary means to stop he/she/them for good). Only, only attack with physical violence if you're attacked like that and even so don't make use of unnecessary greater violence.

My main question, that keeps popping into my head was, did the school principle see this video before making his ruling in regards to the suspension. If not, this video may be able to prove Casey's innocent, and have this taken off of his personal records, which will ultimately affect his entrance to university.

Please see this link for a download of the Original footage:goo.gl/oPdFESpread this around please, this needs to be seen.

Casey has Tiger Blood running through his veins, good on him! Expecting Principals and Teachers to resolve these problems is like dealing with local councils wheny ou have a problem, Pointless!

Good on ya bro its time these little shits gets whats coming to them ! And shame on you little boy thats what will happen if you try to pick on someone three times your size hope it hurt!!! 

Don't just write to the school, write to the Department of Education.  It is within the bounds of their authority.  Every child has the right to feel safe in school.

hahaha that shit is great

Indeed he is!!!!!!

Baloney. The bully deserved what he got. What if he had a knife and ended up killing the victim? Casey had every right to defend himself, no matter what the consequences. If you don't want heat, stay out of the friggin kitchen. A lesson for ALL bullies to be learned. MAybe this will teach bullies to stop once and for all.

I was bullied for many years. MANY YEARS. I believe that with that past it affected my social life heavily as well as my personality. I was inverted, afraid of stepping out of my box and never really made many friends. 24 years old now, that past is behind me yet I am proud of Casey standing up for himself! Layed the smackdown on the little runt right in front of his 'gansta' friends hoping for a punch up video to brag about. Shame on the school for condemning his action for self defence. Go mini Red Cyclone!

Kid was attacked and defended himself.  Then suspended?  Principal is a disgraceful, cowardly jerk who probably felt he had to mollify the a-hole's parents who were upset that their little monster got his richly deserved, painful comeuppance.  Here's is a tip for the bully's parents:  if you don't want your rotten, worthless kid to get body slammed again, come down on him like of ton of bricks before another next victim does.  Bully deserves no sympathy.And that other jerk that started to step in.  Suspend him too.  He's also a worthless bully.  Give the body slammer and the girl medals. They both made the world a little better place.
