Nobody likes a bully. So when a Knoxville, Tennessee middle schooler who was bullied at school, shot a brief video he posted on Facebook it grabbed the world's attention. A tearful Keaton Jones said “People that are different don’t need to be criticized about it. It’s not their fault,” But if you are made fun of, don’t let it bother you. Stay strong, I guess. It will probably get better one day.” The video went viral and several celebrities reached out to encourage him including LeBron James. Tennessee Titans stars even visited Jones at his school. One Tweet said it all: "Dear bullies…I have a feeling that Keaton Jones kid you make fun of is about to have the greatest week of school that any kid ever had."
