Maybe the filmer was small and helpless like AcGold* above. If he never filmed that video than this kid would just be another kid on the "autistic scale" getting bullied and the internet would be without its tough guy mob outrage revenge fantasy of the week.
We should be thanking the filmer and the news should be paying him for all the sweet sweet cheddar they are making off his video. Until next week's facebook outrage bumps this off the front page, of course.
*AcGold, the guy who is just as bad as his class president according to your post.

Well I guess we agree to disagree. The part of the film I saw it didn't even seem like the filmer was saying anything. He could have said "stop I am filming you".
I still believe the filmer should have stepped in, as should one of the other bystanders.
