Mind Your Words
You better mind your words when talking to someone on Internet.An Insult Chatroom turned violent when Kevin Whitrick,42, killed himself while being watched by others on a web cam. Kevin used Paltalk, which urged users in the chatroom to insult each others. He hanged himself while some internet users urged him on and others tried to stop him. The Chatroom was banned after Whitrick’s death. The Prosecution said it would not be possible to level charges against any individual since Whitrick was using an internet chatroom with a number of other people at the time of his death and also belived to be first Internet suicide case. Whitrick had a history of depression. Now the question arises Should the Internet be policed ? NO.

This is ridiculous to expect anyone intervene with the internet due to some depressed idiot killing himself.
HE KILLED HIMSELF, FFS. You don’t need the freakin’ internet for that. I’m sure there are plenty of people who have killed themselves while wearing a t-shirt… exactly - inconsequential.
