Amen to that.Quote:

It's interesting to note that this one time, a bunch of us bought swords from a comic convention and ran around the subway system with it. My brother at the time was carrying a giant paper cutter blade for a sword.
Maybe we just weren't caught by the authorities, but it makes me wonder what exactly is allowed in public.
As for your little story, the 'internet' can't be blamed for anything. You must be thinking about the stuff we post 'online', and that certainly can be 'blamed' or 'held as evidence'.
I blame Godzilla.
In all seriousness though, this has become an issue more and more, as children seem to be completely capable of killing each other over most likely trivial matters. What needs to be done as a society as a whole, is that we must raise our children right, and make them understand that one silly little comment in middle school won't ruin your life.
Take care all.
You're right The Captain, it's all Godzilla's fault.
If we keep blaming and blaming, where will we get to? God?
I can't believe people are so unintelligent as to place blame on a medium of communication.
Kishi will be sad to hear this news. :(
But Manfred Mann, if that medium of communication did not exist, would this have happened? I think that's the argument "they" are using. I think it's a pretty cogent argument, but I still think that the girl should not have been killed for a comment such as was used in this situation.
And yes, I also thought of poor Kishi when I saw this thread title. I thought it was about hentai. And the girl was introduced to it over the internet. And so it goes.
rofl, Manfred Mann was classic.Quote:

Indeed. :(Quote:

Um...not only blame internet and lunch time...blame also the stuff on the internet, like furries or conspiracy sites.
I blame God. He created all these wackos, and all the innocent victims of murder, and the earth that we stand on, so its his fault. I say everyone sue God, NOW![/sarcasm]
But thats about how logical this is.
