I can't have a serious conversation with a person who uses the words "wimps" and "wussies" in a discussion of a serious societal issue. What are we, twelve?
Only wusses hang themselves, anyway. Clearly.
Give me a break.
You ought to be embarrassed.
This is not about the internet. The internet is just a medium for harassment.
This IS about the internet, did you read the story? Are you aware that youtube is an INTERNET site? Yup, pure wussies. The only people that should be embarrassed are the ones like you who blame an inanimate object that can be turned off.
You're the person blaming an inanimate object for a suicide. The internet isn't the reason that Amanda Todd is dead. She's dead because she was sick of being harassed via many mediums, including the internet. Again, it's the perpetrators of the harassment who always have the lion's share of the blame, not the 13 year old female "wusses" who can't handle being physically beaten, tormented and stalked by pedophiles.

Again shameful.
As I said before, she is dead because of the ineptitude and ignorance of her parents, not the Internet.
She is dead because of a society that is producing some wimps who have jelly for a backbone and parents who think the world is a rosy garden full of fairies and butterflies...
What we know beyond a shadow of a doubt, it's natures way of the strong praying on the weak and no amount of hand wringing, crying and believing in the tooth fairy is going to change 10,000 years of human nature.....
Now where did this come from? Nowhere in the OP does it say this girl was stalked by pedophiles....

stalked by pedophiles
Your fear of modern society is readily apparent.....
Do you also see muggers behind every tree and bush?
For all of the idiots who are championing natural selection guess what, the poor and uneducated and so-called "inferior people" are reproducing at a higher rate than the rest of us around the world. This girls death makes no positive impact on society like so many of you want to hope it does. Also wouldn't it just be great if parents raised their kids not to be a**holes?

The person who had her naked picture and kept spreading it each time she changed schools was an adult.
No one else has had a problem reading my posts champo, I'll make it easy for you:
You teach your kids to stand up to bully's
You teach your kids self-respect
You teach them to stand up for themselves and not run to mommy or the principle
You teach your kids: sticks and stones can break my bones but words can never hurt me
The only time you turn the other cheek is to get a better look at the person you're about to deck
I have never in any of my 4 kids did I raised a bully
Better champo?
You completely side-stepped my point. I agree with what you're saying here in bold, but there's way more to it than that. I was taught the above, but I was also raised not to bully others. I was taught to have respect enough for others not to mock their suicide attempts and talk about how I hope they do go off and kill themselves. Looking at it from the standpoint of it only being a weakness on her part is dumbing a complex situation way down. Is it not disturbing to you that kids are being raised to act the way these kids were?
