Correct me if I am wrong, but she didn't even tell the girl to kill herself right?

She just said a bunch of mean **** that caused the girl to kill herself right?

If that is the case, I'm surprised more people aren't walking on eggshells (or if they are, I'm curious how bad it'd be if they weren't)

I literally tell people to kill themselves on a regular basis. I just do in a very gentle suggestive way. It's weird, "kill yourself" is looked down upon openly, however I've never had anyone say anything bad about "now, if you'd be so kind, the rope and rafter are in the next room".

Pretty much, that girl was most definitely not an Eve player.

If she had been there could have been 2 outcomes...

1) Nothing

2) She would have made her suicide awesome

Definitely bonus points for style.

I don't judge people by their race, religion, color, size, age, gender, or ethnicity. I judge them by their grammar, spelling, syntax, punctuation, clarity of expression, and logical consistency.

EVE online better watch out because alot of us are always posting similar sh*t in local or somewhere. Apparently sarcasm is dead to the world now.

What's your verdict on sarcasm in EVE people?




Is anyone really surprised that a country that has privatized their prisons aren't going to be lobbied into draconian laws just to keep them full?

Is there a tl;dr? I tried to watch the video, I really did, but it was just painful.

From what I gather, someone made some sort of threat online and is being prosecuted?

Are you really this much of a tard, or do you just fake it rather well? Arresting someone before they actually do anything wrong is unethical on so many levels. Now, if you catch someone en route to somewhere, armed to the teeth, and acting all kinds of shady, that's one thing. However, to assume that someone is actually going to kill a bunch of people due to a one off comment, said in a joking manner, and lock them up for it? That's not only ridiculous, but it's unethical, and probably illegal in more than one place.

So, if I am saying right now, I will slap the tard out of you if I were to ever meet you, I should now be arrested? Assault is a crime, and if I just said it, it must mean that I really intend to do it. /facepalm

How do you know it was a joke?

Why these weren't taken as jokes?

Because those actually happened. They weren't some grim doomsday fantasy of a bored parent who lets their child spend too much time playing video games.

Edit: Look, if it turns out that this guy was stocking weapons and ammo, and had some actual plans to shoot up a school, I will retract everything I have said, and be the first to congratulate the parent and law enforcement for stopping a horrible crime. Until then, it is one woman's overreaction in a ridiculously emotional time for most parents of young children.

You do know that these people usually leave a message about what they are going to do somewhere before they actually do it?

Yes. They should let him shoot a few kids. Because until then, HE HASN'T COMMITTED A CRIME.

In fact, he hasn't hurt ANYONE. He made a JOKE. I think it was a pretty funny joke. Because it highlights what INSANE really means when someone uses it out of context, for a stupid reason.

So, guess what. Yes. Yes, in fact. you should ONLY arrest people after they commit crimes.

You would like to think you are a super magic special ball of whatever the **** you think you are that makes you think you know what people are going to do. But you don't know what they're going to do until they do it.

The kid doesn't need therapy. The state of Texas needs therapy.
