Indiana gay teen Jordan Steffy fights back against bullying
A video has gone viral (I posted it here on GBT, hope Nick approves it) {Apparently he didn't, but you can see it through a link in one of the comments} that is the result of a gay teen from Indiana, Jordan Steffy, getting fed up with being bullied since he came out. Apparently, the bully he snapped on had posted a "I hate gays" post with Jordan's picture on it. Jordan called him out on it in school, the bully called Jordan a faggot, and Jordan had had enough. He doesn't back down, swings at the bully and connects with an apparently powerful roundhouse slap that almost puts the bully in the floor. The bully again calls Jordan a faggot, and Jordan goes after him. It's funny as hell how the bully tries to run from Jordan. The video was posted a lot of places and has Jordan asking the bully "what's up, bitch?" at the end. That version is posted in Jordan's Twitter. A link to his Twitter is posted in a comment from Baloo7 in the comments section, and I copied it here:

Thanks for that Baloo7!!! The very first video, marked with a content warning, is the fight vid. Just click on "view" to watch it. If you look 4 videos below that one, there is another video from a different angle that shows the slap much better.
You will notice something very sad here. When Jordan really starts pounding the bully, the teacher steps in. Finally. It was ok for the bully to totally disrespect Jordan and call him "faggot", but when Jordan calls him out and finally snaps, it's isn't ok. Why didn't the teacher stop it before it escalated?
Both boys got suspended, and Jordan's mom pulled him out of school because of how poorly the situation was handled.
I checked out the story, that's not too far from me
A bully is coward with a false belief that the abused will always evade a physical confrontation. Wrong. Jordan Steffy's reaction should be a clarion to gays and all other victims of abuse, resist and stand as one.
the teachers didn't say shit to the boy until the gay one started beating the shit out of the bully--until then they let the bully pick on him--I don't think violence is the answer but if the people thats supposed to be protecting him don't--whats he going to do--
I was bullied when I was a kid--I was 10 and this guy much older and his buddies made a habit bullying me every day--it was one day when he shoved me to ground calling me a fag--I didn't say a word but pissed him off--he unbuttoned his pants pulled out his dick and says ill show you what happens to you fags the two guys with him yelled at him in shock one grabbed him and the other grabbed me and helped me get away-- there was a lot of commotion after that in the trees behind us--I didn't see him for few days but his buddys I did see as they didn't know what he would do if saw me--
about a year later he got into a fight got killed--someone said he bullied another boy and raped him for being a fag--and I never could figure it out--if the guy hated fags whats the point if he fucks another guy ---the guy had issues and also had two younger brothers that feared him..
bullying needs to stop--its always been around but that doesn't make it right-- and please guys --if youre reading this or know someone thats thinking of suicide please get help--its not worth dying over someone elses stupidity
I think someone should find out who the teacher is and release his name and social media accounts ..... lets see how well he handles being under pressure for allowing the bully to push and push both online and in person our HERO Jordan Steffy .......... come on guys someone in the local area to this story must know who the teacher is ???
It is sad how some teachers still keep double standards as to who should be protected in school and who shouldn´t!
I saw the article and video clip on Yahoo News yesterday and it was disappointing and maddening to see how many "commenters" on the article blamed Jordan for being the "aggressor" and "starting the fight"! Obviously none of them had spent teen years being called faggot and queer, and have no idea of the pressures of being singled out and harassed by someone!
Standing up for his rights.
Well done Jordan..!!
