Give ‘Bully’ a PG-13 instead of an R rating!</a>: <p>Did you guys know that there is a movie coming out the end of March about bullies? The movie <strong><em>Bully</em></strong> documents the epidemic of bullying in American schools. Unfortunately due to the language in this movie it is currently being given a “R” rating by the Motion Picture Association of America. This prevents the movie from being shown in the places where it would be most effective, the middle and high schools. <br/><br/>A Michigan high school student has started a petition to get this movie rated PG-13. Please help us in making this happen. Remember we CAN make a difference!<br/><br/></p>http://musiciansopposedtobullying.tumblr.com/post/18496032859http://musiciansopposedtobullying.tumblr.com/post/18496032859Wed, 29 Feb 2012 10:44:00 -0500bullyinganti bullyingbully moviepetitionwe can make a difference<a href="http://www.altpress.com/contributors/entry/michael_vampire_stop_the_hate_and_rise_above_it">Michael Vampire - essay in Alternative Press - Stop The Hate, And Rise Above It</a>http://musiciansopposedtobullying.tumblr.com/post/18354288293http://musiciansopposedtobullying.tumblr.com/post/18354288293Sun, 26 Feb 2012 20:42:32 -0500vampires everywheremichael vampirebullyinganti bullyingstop the hate<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lzmmh8Vx2S1r1bvo6o1_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lzmmh8Vx2S1r1bvo6o3_400.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lzmmh8Vx2S1r1bvo6o4_400.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lzmmh8Vx2S1r1bvo6o2_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><p>I uploaded earlier today the anti bullying message from Emilie Autumn.
