Have you ever been part of a group of people that were unkind to one or more individuals? Describe the circumstances. What caused you to behave the way you did? How did you feel then? How do you feel about the circumstances / events in retrospect?
There was a time where my class was scolded by a teacher for not doing their homework and everyone was blaming one another for this incident. Then someone just decided to put the blame on this one poor guy. Everyone started following suit and even though everyone was to blame, everyone just started defaming and torturing this guy. I was just keeping quiet as I did not want anyone to start picking on me but also did not want to hurt him anymore. I sympathised with the guy but I did not have the courage in me to stand up for him. If only I had stopped the ruckus, I may have stopped his tears from falling. Now as I look back, I regret not standing up for the guy.
