I think it's awesome that he is speaking out about this ongoing issue that many students (people) face. I hope that this will eventually help reduce the amount of occurrences!

Aziz Ansari Against Bullying!
Yesterday I was bored, you know hanging out with the home dogs and decided to watch Aziz Ansari's new stand up comedy on Netflix. It was really funny.. I mean, he's always funny. During the show, he mentioned how he watched the documentary, Bully. He said he was really touched from this movie, which I can definitely relate (I feel like we all can). He talks about how these mean bully kids need to be stopped and that the school staff seemed to have done nothing about this issue. I could not find a clip of him talking about this issue from his stand up comedy show, but I did find this clip of him talking about this issue on Conan,https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pClqS1gJT8E. The two are very similar. Start it at 1:35 to hear the two talk about the issue of bullying. It is really funny but it has some seriousness to it!

Okay I find Aziz to be quite funny but I didn't like this clip. I did laugh and I was entertained but bullying isn't something to be joking about. While Conan and Aziz laughed at the creative threats kids seem to come up with all I could think about it is what if there is a bully out there watching this right now? Here are two grown adults laughing about the way these kids are bullying. Even when Aziz mentions his own bullying experience, they both laughed at how the teacher handled it. I just don't feel that laughing at a subject such as bullying is appropriate in any way, shape, or form.
