Again, there were other circumstances involved, some that I never had anything to do with.
Throughout grades 5-10...the kid I'm talking about was often treated in almost inhumane ways by certain kids in school. That had a lot to do with him being unwilling to show enough trust towards someone, like myself, that he would even talk to me.

In other words, I'm racist.
Thanks for that as well.
