Chris Evans is a good guy! 1 1

[Lucky Baru]

A kid named Keaton Jones was being bullied.  His reply to it and how it made him feel made it onto twitter.  Chris Evans (Captain America) saw it.  This is how he responded on twitter to Keaton Jones:

" Stay strong, Keaton. Don’t let them make you turn cold. I promise it gets better. While those punks at your school are deciding what kind of people they want to be in this world, how would you and your mom like to come to the Avengers premiere in LA next year? "

That's a good guy and a man worthy of the Captain America role he plays.

Awesome stuff Cap

Hope Keaton has the time of his life at the Avengers premiere 

[Lucky Baru]

Since Keaton's video went up he has been invited to dozens of concerts/sporting events, Taylor Lewan (NFL TN Titans tackle) has offered to be his bodyguard, Dana White has offered to fly Keaton to Vegas, and over $25k has been raised for his future through a GoFundMe.

Sometimes very good things happen for the right reasons.

A kid in our local area comitted suicide due to bullying in the last few days... so reading all of this is just amazing stuff.  I mean it's horrific that kids have to go through it, but it's nice to think that at least one kid's life will be saved, and maybe others who see it will realize that their lives can turn around as well.

Thanks for sharing.

Thank you.  Made me so angry and sad watching the video.  Glad to see people supporting him.

Great story !

Several UFC fighters have made videos supporting Keaton, including UFC champions Daniel Cormier and Tyron Woodley.   Donald Trump Jr. offered to put him and his family up with his family if they wanted to come to New York.   Some good guy celebs out there.  (Along with some serious douchebags...)

Latest news:

Keaton's mom shut down her facebook page this morning. Apparently there are photos of them waving a confederate flag as well as several posts by her which could be considered racist.

It doesn't reflect on Chris Evans and the act that he did by reaching out to the child.

Well you are right. You started posting some other non comic related names though.

One celeb has already backed out as a result of mom's posts.

I also forgot we are not in the Water Cooler.

Sorry.

Well it does reflect on him. He clearly didn’t realize who he was defending. Seems pretty dumb to me not get the whole story on why the kid was being bullied to begin with.

Seems like he’s not the only one based on the La times story I posted above

[jsilverjanet]

So is he still going to the Avengers premiere?
