Author Topic: Cyber Bullying Can Lead To 15 Years In Federal Prison (U.S.)  (Read 4615 times)

People are stupid enough to argue with people who arguing with only makes them want to argue. Yet those people don't kill themselves.
That was painful to read.
This is a topic for discussion and argument, if you don't like it, get out.

Yet those people don't kill themselves.

Because they're smart enough to know that the other guy's opinions don't give a stuff and wouldn't affect their everyday life

I might have quite a few years ahead of me.

People stupid enough to kill themselves over internet comments die out as they should.
No, stupidity isn't a permanent condition, it can easily be ironed out and taken care of (Not through death).  And yes, it is perfectly reasonable for a person to consider Self Delete under such comment(s), and it needs to be taken care of.  Some people are more sensitive then others, some people feel the need to to shoot themselves down out of low courage.  It is a matter of personality, not who is right or wrong.

And perfection is not the right path to prosperity.
It is the other person's fault for taking words to seriously.
They burden themselves by over-thinking the others comment, but like I said ^

No, stupidity isn't a permanent condition, I guess I did imply that, but by stupidty, I meant sensitivity and more complex personality traits. it can easily be ironed out and taken care of (Not through death). Case in point, they shouldn't have killed themselves.  And yes, it is perfectly reasonable for a person to consider Self Delete under such comment(s) Or just unlovingplug the computer., and it needs to be taken care of. See last bold comment. Some people are more sensitive then others The most sensitive ones die out, I can't really complain or feel bad about that., some people feel the need to to shoot themselves down out of low courage.  It is a matter of personality, not who is right or wrong.So you're not saying the harassers are wrong?


But the sensitive ones need to be taken to another direction of bravery and excellence.
Case in point, they shouldn't have killed themselves.
But instead of letting them kill themselves, you should teach them the wrongs of doing so.
Or just unlovingplug the computer
The person reading such comments will over think the situation.  'Just unplugging the computer' is reasonable, you should do that, but people may accidentally or would further want to post on their feelings on such comments.

Just to clarify on my opinion over here, in case you got some parts of me wrong: I believe the person who has a sensitive approach on things like this shouldn't be put to death or shouldn't commit Self Delete.  They should get further help.

:o
15 Years is a little too hares.
plus most of the offenders are teens/childs

Woah woah.
I never said they should be loving killed.
Yes, they should seek help and be helped.

I just don't want people who feel they need to blame something for it to keep making these dumb laws.

yes it should at least just be a fine
No Fines
like i said its too stupid.
Plus kids dont have that kind of Money.
So really the perents are going to have to pay for it and that doesnt teach a lesson. Just more Hate

Insane, no. Then its the fault of the parents for not taking better care of them I suppose. Stupid, yes. If you're born stupid you can become smarter. Maybe not as smart as someone who was born smart, but you can become smart enough to not kill yourself.
yeah and you start doing that when you're born unless you choose not to, derp

you don't loving choose how everything around you shapes you when you're a little kid

Woah woah.
I never said they should be loving killed.

Oh yeah,

I don't agree with these laws either, simply because cases could be misunderstood.  As opinions can't be spread as much as on the internet, people like to share them.  In most cases, these opinions could be very hurtful to some, so without knowing, you're accused with violation of a law.

No Fines

its a stupid law however you look at it
I was just saying a fine might be better than putting a teen (since most of the time its teens) in jail for 15 years
but really this law shouldn't exist at all

holy cow i watched a movie about this stuff.
the girl commits Self Delete because her social life got ruined
(but she survived the Self Delete)

This is the worst crap my face has ever looked into. The internet is the freest place in the entire world. You reserve the right to "Block" people on every social networking site. Also, If you take this to the point of Self Delete, You've done several things wrong. First off, You haven't told anyone else. If you were to tell someone else, like a responsible adult, the situation would never go to the point of Self Delete. Secondly, You are probably taking insults a little too seriously. If I would have taken to heart every time I was made fun of, I'd be hanging from a rope around my neck too. Thirdly, The people calling them that are obviously not your friends anyways. Not everyone is out to get you. There will always be friends. Peoples opinions are not just out there for the warping. there will likely be people who recognize the situation for what it is and offer help. Not always, But sometimes. Also, When did the schools own Facebook? Is there some sort of cigarettegish law out there that says the Public School System can moderate any forum, any social networking site, and any Board in the world? So how can they punish the bully(s) for what they have done on someone else's property? Lets say I own a a Pizza Shop, And you own a Jewelry store 150 Miles away. Lets say "Bob" goes to your shop and starts spitting on and kicking people in your store and proceeds to exit. Then he drives to my store. Should I be allowed to punish him for something he did in your store? Now don't get me wrong, The people who caused anyone to commit Self Delete in the first place (Though a illogical option) should be tried for murder.
