That said and I know I'll get a lot of flack for this...I feel like she just didn't have good coping skills. I channeled my anger into learning martial arts and violent video games. And the more they tried to bully me, the more we'd get into physical altercations, and win/lose the more they'd leave me alone because I wasn't an easy target. I guess I was just lucky in that I was able to keep the "light" at the end of my black tunnel in view as I squeaked by(graduated in the bottom 10% of my class even though I was taking AP classes) | ||

Tired of idiots going nowhere picking on the few who are simply different :D. I like diversity in people, why can't we all! Anyway, sad story This so much. There's nothing negative about being "different". We're all the same in that we're all different. And it's good that way. The internet is a dangerous tool. It almost provokes the real scum in this world - because they're not showing themselves. There's no empathy because there's no faces, all we are is usernames and maybe an icon. We're "not" people online and that's the real danger. | ||

I cannot imagine the pain this poor girl endured. God rest her soul. I can only imagine what her parents are going through right now. That video is the saddest thing I have ever watched. | ||

How about children that suffer from diseases and famine, while having no access to food or meds. How about children that lose their arms and legs through bombs over a war, they know nothing about yet. And here is this perfectly healthy girl, throwing her life away over something stupid like that. Sorry, but I cannot have any sympathy for people who cannot value what they have in life, and instead decide to waste it. With all due respect - society's better off without people like that. TL;DR: When I see one more pathetic attentionwhore and/or depressive fool, making youtube videos with cards in their hands, telling us how bad their lifes are, I swear to god, I am gonna start killing them off myself. given your comments, I somehow doubt that you actually care even a little bit about any of that. TL;DR: when I see one more pathetic, attention whore and/or depressive fool, making some idiotic comment on TL, telling me how tough and cool and unsympathetic they are, I swear to god, I'm gonna thank my mom and dad that they didn't raise a fucking retard. amidoinitrite? edit: oh fucking wow. in the middle of all the bullshit spewing from your posts, i missed this little gem: With all due respect - society's better off without people like that. i love how you put: "with all due respect" in front of it to, like that's not the most disrespectful thing you could possibly say. fucking cool story bra, have fun posting maybe 30 more times before you get fucking banned. (also it's funny how you didn't say society is better off without the bullies....) | ||

Many of those you mention go through life suffering years upon years after the events, though.You make it sound like it's ineviteable. Yet there are children/teenagers who´ve been through much worse than having no friends and being bullied (say, being raped, physically abused etc.) and don't have the sudden impulse to kill themselves. The relation between what people did to her and what her reaction to it was, is just totally out of line. You don't commit suicide over being bullied. Period. I mean, what's next? Oh damn, my grades in school are bad, I better go kill myself. Oh noes, my girlfriend/boyfriend broke up with me, better go commit suicide. Come on.. You can't put a level of degree saying this is not tough enough to suffer, so much that you can no longer see a way out. She couldn't. People losing jobs, relationships, friendships, foundations in life, family members, not getting grades, react differently. Some people are more sensitive than others. Some are tough skinned. Some are tough skinned because they do not care about anything. Being in pain, means it hurts. Some feel like they only feel pain in life. Some feel more pain because their intentions were good, and they got exploited, than others. You can't just put your own mindset down on everyone and say, "well, i can survive this". I wonder even if you have felt anything even remotely close to this kind of pain. You can't just say well, someone had it worse. People place values into different things, and when that value is removed, they feel empty and torn apart. And there is absolutely no reasoning or justification in the world that condones that she had to go through this torment. No matter if she was too trusting or not. Too dependent on acceptance or not. She tried to get away from it all, but it kept pursuing her, either in physical abuse, or later being so depressed, that she lost social skills, and at a loss that she saw no way out. | ||

So from the fact that I express my disliking towards attentionwhores and people that dwell in their depressions, thinking of it as the worst disease out there, you derive that I am a depressive fool and attentionwhore myself? I'm afraid you lost me somewhere along that impressive way of logic.. The "with all due respect" actually is meant sarcastic, as I don't hold any respect for suiciders. If you´d thought before you judged me, this might have occured to you. Oh and "amidoinitrite?": Yea you´re doing it right, unless you didn't contribute anything to this discussion and didn't mention the girl this thread is about or your opinion on what happened at all. Now that I think about it, all you´ve done was posting some hate-filled lines, letting your anger about whatever is troubling you, out on me. However, it seems like that's all you wanted to do in the first place. Congrats. | ||

No understanding, no empathy, no effort to understand at all. You don't have any idea what it's like and you don't need to because your life is fine. I hope that some day your life comes crashing down and people will laugh at you, beat you around, look down on you and you won't be able to do anything against it. Now do I really want that? Fuck no, nobody deserves that. But I guess people like you will never understand otherwise. Society would be better off without you. | ||

And here I thought it was because of the people who blackmailed her with nude pictures and bullied her at school. Or was it the parents that didn't realize their daughter was deeply depressed? Or her so-called friends who ditched on her in the blink of an eye? Also, spare me from your holdless assumptions, you do not know anything about my life or how it's been. Now I´d like you to go back on topic. If anybody still feels like insulting me, for whatever reason, go ahead and do it via PM. | ||

My thoughts are also with her family. I completely agree with you about criminal charges. Don't know about the US laws on that, but in Russia you may face up to 5 years in prison for this. + Show Spoiler + Article 110. Incitement to Suicide Incitement of a person to commit or attempt to commit suicide by means of threats, cruel treatment of a person, or systematic denigration of the human dignity of the victim shall be punishable by restraint of liberty for a term of up to three years or by deprivation of liberty for a term, of up to five years. That doesn't mean that suicide is an acceptable reaction to bullying, there is no reason to blame the victim but it's OK to say that the idea of suicide as a solution to such problem is completely wrong. | ||

Not everyone is equally strong else there would be no such things as real life "heroes." People are deemed heroes because they are stronger than your average person. Look at Asia. Hell, lets look at Japan a country with the one of the highest suicide rates in the world (mostly coming from students who can't handle the academic stress). There are numerous stories of how students commit suicide because they couldn't get into the target school or got a "B" instead of an "A." Just because they are not strong or don't meet your standard shouldn't mean they should be mocked and ridiculed. Also, she was a teenager. Do you have any idea how self-esteem works for females? Let alone a teenage girl? Some jackass was playing on her emotion back in 7th grade. She felt good. Confident. So no shit she was gonna fulfill their request. I mean she made a small mistake but she was in middle school. Kids never make the greatest decisions.* But if you want to keep arguing pathetically that what she did is wrong and deserved some insults and consequences, fine. But she died because of bullying. She was mocked and ridiculed and bullied for some extensive time. I don't care what you say or think but bullying is wrong. Period. And for death to result because of bullying is the most shittiest thing you can do. *edit: Kids are over dramatic. They let the emotions get the best of them. Just because you can't relate to the person or understand or "walk a mile in their shoe" shouldn't mean you should impose your standards and experience onto someone else. That is sheer ignorance. | ||
