Thread: NJ student's suicide

Last week, Tyler Clementi, a shy, 18-year-old Rutgers University freshman and gifted violist, jumped to his death from the George Washington Bridge after his roommate and another classmate allegedly used a webcam to secretly broadcast his dorm-room sexual encounters with another man. The two classmates have been charged with invasion of privacy, with the most serious charges carrying up to five years in prison.

My right click doesn't work or I would have put a link.
How can people be so cruel. Regardless of a persons views the laws should be changed to enforce stricter punishments of invasion of privacy.

One incident? No, this is happening more and more. People don't think before they play their little games. Why try and hurt someone? A young girl just last week killed herself over pranks. People are being vedio taped without their consent and it's ending up on the net. It can be devestating to many.

This is not the religious section.

It's a sin like other sins but I will let my Master decide who goes to Heaven and who goes to Hell. I only say you must be born again or repent of your sins. I'm not God.

But does the crime fit the punishment?
