I was talking to my Girlfriend (Now Ex) one night over an Instant messanger. She had just got done watching the city confidintal on Brain. She said "I saw this tv show about a Punk being murdered by a Jock...The Punk reminded me of you with the mohawk and the way he dressed." I was my usal,negative self and thought "Why the fuck do I care?" then later that night I got this weird feeling in my stomach,and I decied to look it up. I read alot of articles and the Wikipedia on Brian,and then I broke out in tears...Lieraly. How could the courts let Dustin get away with sutch a brutial crime!?


I was only five when this all happend,and I;ve lived in Oklahoma all my life...Yet,when I read the storys and look at his pictures,I feel as if I knew Brian...Somehow,I just do. I know I don't...Its just this weird feeling I get.

I wish they would relise how bad Camp really is and just throw him into a Cell with Bubba and Big Daddy.

His hole story made me hold my friends and familey closer,and has helped me to ignore people when they go about making fun of me because they wanna be fuckheads. (Not saying I won't snap at people once in a while...I have and can.)

I just got off the phone with my friend,who is a Goth. She and her friend where being teased by Some preps at the mall today. It makes me whant to make flyers and pass them out to students at my school and that mall (witch is like an hour and a half from me...but I dont care) just to have a chance at touching some of them and stoping bullying and all that.

Infact,we should make either "Day zero" or Brian's Birthday a day we all go pass out flyers and panflits on him and his story at schools,churches,stores,resturants,etc. Maybe make a week of it. Maybe it will touch people,and help stop all the hell in schools...and Society.

I know i sound kinda corny,Cause I'm tierd.

This is the best post I've seen in this group in a long time.

Most people get so angry that they just want to react in violence. Which violence is the wrong answer and exactly the opposite of what Brian would want.

I learned about Brian not long after he died. I didn't know who he was, but my adoptive parents were watching the news and heard his name (my real name is Stephanie Deneke) and called me into the room. I emailed Mike and Betty the next day. We never figured out if we are really related. But I think of Brian as a cousin anyways.

Please keep up with this state of mind! You aren't being corny, I believe that way of thinking is what Brian would think. Don't retaliate, , , , , EDUCATE.

I think making a day out of Brian's birthday to stop bullying because someone is different would be amazing, and I ussualy don't have ideas that I whant to stick by when I'm tiered. We could, as I said, pass out flyers and stuff about Brain and what bullying does and violince can result in. Maybe someone from Amerilo can lay a flyer on Brian's gravestone, probly a familey member or friend. Just to show that we remember him. Then send one to Camp!

Anyone in? There has to be somebody beside Stephanie (If she is interested) here who would join!! I can get plenty of people here to join!

Fuck yeah, I’m in. Let’s STOP the bullshit!

well i cant say fighting is not the Answer, cause back in high school i use to get my ass kicked daily for having a mohawk. i was the only person in my school of 3000 people that listen to punk, i did not fit in cause everyone else listen to country or rap. and sadly i know it happens still at my old school. there are a few more "punks" then there was before. but same crap kids beating the hell out of kids cause they are different. but my problems lasted all the way up to the 2 week of 12th grade when i stood up for myself in the parking lot. instead of getting in to my friends van i turned around and swing and took out the biggest jock i could find out of them, after he fell down the others just ran off. everyone says oh you have to Educate them not to be bullies... well in this world of violence good luck on that cause i know its not going to work, you will just have to stand up and fight. Cause when they know your not just a push over, they will stop messing with you.
