Why do the Mexicans/Native Americans at my school think they're so good?

They think they’re so good? Beating people up just for the sake of beating up people to feel bigger doesn’t make a person good, no way no how. So, they’re clearly dead wrong. But you could add some more details.

What you’re experiencing is bullying by the top dogs, It’s been going on for centuries. It just happens that where you are, the white guys are the underdogs. Of course it annoys you. Blacks and other non-whites get more grief from the whites in most American communities. Be happy you’ve been accepted by some of the Mexicans and native Americans. That’s where the change towards everybody accepting everybody regardless of color or beliefs begins. Be strong and friendly as much as you can be. Talk to your friends about it.
Accentuate the positive. Avoid the guys who threaten you.

Make an example out of one. And make it stick. Making it stick usually means getting expelled for a while, but that’s a good thing. You’re gonna want to lay low for a while after a stunt like that but at the very least you should see some respect coming your way. You may need to do it twice, I don’t know.

Listen kid, this “turn the other cheek” is crap. Do that and play right into their hands. You might even get raped if you come off too reasonable. That would be bad. It’s not going to be easy no matter which way you go. You want to walk away with your respect intact. Sucking up to them= no respect.

I never said that they did beat anyone up, this is a really small school, 175 kids k-12 and This one Mexican comes for half the year then goes back to Florida every year and I did something to annoy him one day and my friend said that he said he was going to kick my ass, I just said let him come at me. If course this was right before he left so he never did but ill be waiting for it when he comes back :) @woodcutter @Sunny2 @flo

He made a threat right before he exits stage right? Hmm. He’s talkin shit. I wouldn’t worry too much about that one but keep an eye on him just the same. Lift weights this summer. You’re young and you will build quick. Learn how to punch, hard. Bullies like him usually take one good hit to back them off. Right in the nose. Any bully walking the halls with tampon sticking out of their nose will have some thinking to do. They might think about killing you or…they may want to let it go. If he does that then that is your signal to approach him and talk.You don’t know ,he may be alright.

I will take the advice but also try not to get expelled. @woodcutter

Don’t worry about getting expelled. It doesn’t matter. Getting expelled for eating a pop tart to look like a pistol would be a disgrace. Getting a bully off your butt is worth it. If you are a smart kid you can catch up on the classes. Get a friend to sneak you the assignments. People who turn the other cheek always regret it later because they will be a victim for the rest of their life. Life it short. If you are a victim it is too long.

Avoid getting into a fight. If someone talks to you like that, say that you have nothing against him and really do not want to fight him, because it does not prove anything. Tell him that if he starts a fight with you that you will have no choice but to defend yourself and that, regardless of who wins, there is going to be a lot of pain on both sides, so it really would not be a good idea.

How do you know what they think? Rumors?
Who cares what they think.
Perhaps its insecurity that they are feeling and feeling that they
try to intimidate others.
Perhaps they have had racist slurs directed at them and are on guard?
I would worry about the one who left, he may have friends?
It all depends of What you said before he left? You may have injured his culture?

@LostInParadise “Avoid getting into a fight. If someone talks to you like that, say that you have nothing against him and really do not want to fight him, because it does not prove anything.”

OMFG!!. I laughed so hard at that just now, I farted a little. That is so flippin corny could you just imagine how a bully is going to react to that? You really want to see @8magnum8 get his ass handed to him that badly?
DUDE- never negotiate with bullies ever! Tits on Christ man. You want to know why someone is even thinking about trying to reason with these types? Its because they already have their tits in a wringer or their head shoved into a crapper and they are begging to be left alone….FAIL!

pleaaaaase stop hurting me?

Don’t be that guy. But don’t go into overkill either.You want to be respected, not hated.

We obviously have a different view on this. If you looked at the rest of what i wrote, the idea that I was trying to get across is: I don’t want to fight you, but I am ready to fight back if you start.

There is no negotiating or backing down.

@LostInParadise The fact that you are telling a bully that, means you are in trouble before anything starts. Telling someone you “don’t really want to fight” is music to their ears. It won’t change a thing from their viewpoint. The fuse it already lit.
