Let’s take a moment to reflect even as you sip your afternoon coffee:
Bullying is wrong.
Hands up how many of us here had been bullied in school?
Or were bullies?
I’m sure none of you would want to admit the latter, would you?
Even toward stray animals, some of us have been guilty of a stepped tail, a teasing fierce glare to make that cat run, showing for a split second that inherent demon inside us struggling to let loose amid society’s restraint.
But how far would you go?
Enough to kill someone? Because that was what this man did.
Man Shot School BullyÂ
Thanapat, a 69-year-old Thai marine, recently shot dead his classmate who had bullied him in school fifty-three years ago.
The old classmates from 1966 had gathered with a bunch of others at a shop, chatting and drinking.
Suthud, the ex-bully, came with the group. As they chatted, Thanapat was suddenly flooded with the bad memories of those old days when Suthud bullied him.
It was not the mere stealing of his pencils. Or throwing his schoolbag in the trash.
When they were boys, Suthud along with some others had almost buried Thanapat alive.
53 years later, at this coffeeshop, Thanapat simply could not believe the old classmates had tracked Suthud down, yet were there chatting as though nothing had happened.
And He Lost Control
Thanapat took out a gun and shot the ex-bully in the stomach.
The ex-marine recalled the bad memories and heard the voices of their times together in school. He could not block them out in his head, and so, he shot his old debtor!
Suthud fell to the ground, bleeding profusely from his stomach wound.
Some of the classmates fled, while others brought the victim to the hospital.
Through it all, Thanapat sat calmly in the shop alone smoking a cigarette.
Not Guilty
Later, Thanapat confesses he felt no guilt to what he had done, as it had felt like burying Suthud alive back.
Tit for tat.
So readers, take a moment more to pause, and reflect: who in your life do you currently have grievances with? Recall, forgive, and lock the deed away for good.
Take a deep breath. Uncurl those clenched fists.
Oftentimes, it is good to breathe in some fresh air.
