Treat others as you would like to be treated.
That's what Jesus said.
He did also say that to hurt others, for whatever reason, would be hurting Him as well. Think about that when you feel like "making fun" of those you don't consider cool enough to be in your presence.

9/11...uh i dont think so
it could be an increase of positive portrayal of nerds in media
but it seems that u dont "like" nerds, as if they was a kind of ppl to look down upon, but if u think about it, they usually have the most career potential (think bill gates, warren buffet)
ppl that were cool or wannabe would prob. end up in the streets or flipping burgers their whole lives... granted, there are also "loser" nerds w/o career-type skills, but they still can take pride in themselves and their culture
nowadays, nerds look down on you and other arrogant fools
god bless!

Nerds are often the smartest people in the school. They're getting better paying jobs than you. That's why no body makes fun of them any more.
Besides nerds have always been cooler than jocks. Intelligence is sexy.

What do most American kids do today?
They sit infront of their computers, play video games and become big ole fat unathletic pieces of waste.
So in short, the nerds have simply increased in number, not to mention these, days if you bully a nerd too much you may want to call in sick your next school day because you might find yourself looking down the barrel of a 45 caliber pistol.

Because you have no heart or soul to feel the need to discriminate. If your this willing to sandbag a Nerd then other races, cultures, stereotypes are just a stones throw away from being sandbagged too??

It's never cool to make fun of anyone. Maybe you're finally starting to grow up.

Because making fun of nerds is just overcompensation for one's own inadequacies.

It's never "cool" to make fun of anyone. It's just a failed attempt at making yourself look better.

Only underachievers and jerks have to make fun of others in order to make themselves feel better.

I'd contribute it more to Columbine than to 9/11.
