Baker Mayfield: Fire The Cannons

[The Human Q-Tip]

If you called someone that in the work place, what would happen to you?

Depends who heard it. I've heard plenty worse things in a law firm coming from lawyers, but it all matters who hears it.

Guessing you didn't see the video of the 9 year-old little person balling his eyes out and saying he wanted to kill himself because of being bullied and called a midget at school?

Sorry. Didn't mean to give the impression that I approve of that word. Perhaps we should ban that word on this site.

That was a scam. That kid is an Instagram star.

That one is so strange to me. It's clear that mom has pushed him as an advocate against bullying for years now, and it makes me wonder how much of that has influenced him being ridiculed.

Random anecdote, my 7 year old has a little person in her class, and I think she's pretty universally loved at the school. Even her little person father I can't recall being bullied because of his size growing up, although I can't say I was ever more than casually acquainted with him back then.

And I don't care, I fucking love midgets.

The only place I could find online mentioning Grossi's height states that he's 5'6".

Baker is listed at 6'1"

So this is basically like a black man using the n word.

I'm old enough to remember all the times a certain former Boston Celtic PG who was traded to The Cavs was called a midget on RCF pretty much daily.

I heard that as well but was just reading that the claim he was 18 is fake and others who faked funding accounts claiming to be the mother. Not sure what to believe. Hugh Jackman sent him a video message. I would think they would fact check.

Who has the time to fake all this stuff in response to a kid crying his eyes out from being bullied?

Who are these people?

They should be shot.

There's a couple things at play. The kid may have actually been getting bullied but he and his family have been social media "stars" for years. There's videos of this kid wearing all Gucci clothes, posing with money, giving the middle finger and shit like that. The video was made to garner more attention to him and continue to build his clout. I'm not excusing the bullying at all it's just that when you look into the situation there's so much shady shit.

Ehh.. That's bullshit. The kid was visibly distraught & nobody really has any latitude to call it an "act". Moreover, the money raised for him to go to Disney was/is being donated to Stand Tall 4 Dwarfism. Maybe his mom had ulterior motives, but he's the one being bullied & clearly has had these issues in the past as he had suicidal thoughts at only 6 years of age.
