Me too. I was 158lbs when I started and some people in the gym gave me advice that helped me a great deal. It's one thing if the guy thinks he's the shit and lifting with poor form, but if the guys just in the gym trying to learn to lift, why not help him out?
I agree with some of the others...
I try not to publically make fun of someone, Heck, probably been there myself once. Instead, especially if they look like they are going to hurt themselves, I'll offer some friendly advice without belittling them.
It the big guys who use bad form that I laugh at.

Did asking the kid if he has a problem make you feel like the bigger man napoleon? It shouldn't have because you obviously were the bigger man to start with. But the real bigger guy in that situation is the one that doesn't start shit, and that was the smaller guy. Help the kid out next time and stop being a jackass.

yeah it did make me feel like the bigger man. I am extremely jealous of tall guys...hence the name. He had a good 3inches on me...so he should eat shit and die.
There's not much I wouldn't do to be 6ft

dude, you could've offered advice to the guy maybe. If he was tryingto be a hard-ass though then trying to offer advice to him might not have helped at all. If he was staring you down, you can say something. Like I said though, IF he was STARING at YOU. Not saying this is necesarrily the case here, but some bros think that a dude looking in their general direction constitutes "staring at me". If he was actually giving you hard looks you can say something, fuck 'em.

How about this. Quit being such a bitch about being short, if you are short then you are short. Who cares? What would being 6ft. help you with in life. Do you automatically become cooler when you are 6ft, please someone let me know. How much younger was he than you also?
Don't be such a prick next time, and just offer him some advice, he will either take it or not but at least you are doing the right thing. Personally I would feel bad if I watched someone through their workout and then he squats too much and is totally fucked up, when all I had to do was offer an opinion.
Sidenote: To have a complex is not a good thing either.
Sorry for any flaming if it seemed that way, but I really think people need to help dumb people in the gym, or at least offer it to them. Not everybody came out of the womb with a barbell.
