Bonnie, Jamal & Tim, Baltimore, 2012

Tim King and Jamal Belica in Baltimore, 2012. Tim and Bonnie King were honored for Tim's reports on war crimes in Sri Lanka against the Tamil people who were massacred in a genocide by the Sri Lankan government, one of the biggest bully nations on the face of this earth.

I am so impressed with the message delivered by Ariana Zoto and Jamal Belica!

Here we are in a world of endless violence where adult political leaders plunge us into dirty wars and then scream for more as our own forces are worn thin and sent home broken... and along comes a pair of fresh young minds and voices to remind us of who and what we are and why we are even here in the first place.

As I write this I am deeply embroiled in a story about a tiny little boy who was beaten to within an inch of his life - his injuries so terrible that he probably won't live and if he does, the doctors don't think he will ever walk, talk or see again.

The person charged with bullying this small little blond haired boy in the cruelest possible way, through a series of violent acts that left the boy with ruptured bowels, bruises and rug burns all over his entire body and massive head trauma, so terrible that part of the boy's skull had to be removed, is a police officer.

He deserved to live as a happy child, to be able to grow and learn and someday graduate from school and then someday, have a child of his own.

But a wicked bully took this opportunity away from him; a man so jaded that there was no hope for the boy, because the man charged with destroying him is a COP and they are all too often, the biggest bullies of them all.

Down with bullies, let us rise to the challenge and take the bullies and throw them away, let's trash those who pick on the weak, that is the entire existence of Salem-News.com anyway, we are always there for the broken, the battered, the forgotten and the women and children. Most of all the children.

Tim King, Ken O'Keefe and Bonnie King

Tim's years as a Human Rights reporter have taken on many dimensions; he has rallied for a long list of cultures and populations and continues to every day, with a strong and direct concentration on the 2009 Genocide of Tamil Hindus and Christians in Sri Lanka. As a result of his long list of reports exposing war crimes against Tamil people, Tim was invited to be the keynote speaker at the FeTNA (Federation of Tamil Sangams of North America) Conference in Baltimore, in July 2012. This is the largest annual gathering of North American Tamils; Tim addressed more than 3000 people and was presented with a traditional Sri Lanka ‘blessed garland’ and a shawl as per the tradition and custom of Tamil Nadu

Tim holds awards for reporting, photography, writing and editing from traditional mainstream news agencies like The Associated Press and Electronic Media Association; he also holds awards from the National Coalition of Motorcyclists, the Oregon Confederation of Motorcycle Clubs; and was presented with a 'Good Neighbor Award' for his reporting, by the The Red Cross.

Real champions are those brave and unadulterated souls that take a stand and show the true and pure greatness of humanity by way of example. I find it quite an admirable and an inspirational experience witnessing the real meaning of hope materialize before me in these two extraordinary and beautiful human beings. It takes a healthy and sound but ever willing mind, body, and soul that has been nurtured with empathy to bring about real social change.

Societies have shown less interest over time in the development of empathy. This deficiency in normal human behavior has caused many of problems in the modern world. Children as well as adults should be able to recognize that most people who hurt others have been hurt themselves. To understand the negative behavior of others, children who have learned empathy at home have a much greater advantage in defusing a bully situation than one who has not been so nurtured.

It would be wise and even noble if parents provided the proper education and discipline that is necessary for their children to be able to protect and defend themselves. In my humble opinion, Martial Arts would be beneficial, yes. But a more sound human being can be produced with the self-understanding of empathy; and that is even better! Having empathy does not only serve oneself, but it can also help heal the world. Learn more about how empathy can help stop bullying and help heal the world. Read: Stop Bullying With Empathy
