Cyber Bullying end of free speech? Amazon ban book

[regalsin]

Before you read the point I am making is this.

1. Freedom of speech on the internet, is going to become
stupid. PEople children call the cops on police after people on the internet calls them #$#$##%#$ whatever.

2. Amazon banns a book from there store and now
people are trying to get other books banned from Amazon. Note Amazon in the internet, at all, but that is the main idea.



Okay so once upon a time in the past, a MIlitary guy wented online and was called a NEERRDDDD by an old Military Veteran guy who then proceeded to make phunnie images out of him. This was real. The Young guy with his entire life ahead of him, found the guy and burnt his home down,.

Here is the story.
www.realitymod.com/forum/f11-off-topic-discussion/25226-man-burns-down-trailer-after-getting-called-nerd-online.html

On the subject of that, on the news, people ( kids / teenagers / young adults ) are complaining to there parents of cyber bullies?

Now we all know what Cyber sex is.
We all know what internet dating is

So let me ask you. WHEN DID THE US BECOME SUPER WUSSIES?

I mean people are in Jail, getting there rights violated
all over the place, and CYBER BULLING MAKES THE NEWS?

A couple of years back a kid killed himself over his character dying in an MMORPG. A game featuring
elves and trolls...........seriously WTF?

A girl met some guy online, lied to him about how she looked. SHE WAS FAT The guy burnt/killed her in her grandfathers house. HE did it since he did not like what he sawed?

SO LET ME ASK YOU THIS. SERIOUSLY, ThIS IS DUMB AND IT MADE THE AFTERNOON NEWS ( YEAH I know it is only the afternoon ).

So on to my next Question.


DO WE REALLY CARE WHAT BOOKS ARE PRINTED?
No
DO WE CARE WHERE YOU CAN BUY THEM FROM?

No

Why should people take that insane six year old kid, saying blurb to people online. When they couild just get up and go somewhere else.

As Peytral noted in another thread, people just like to complain.

Every society is full of hypocrisy so it's not just the US that has news features on bullying.

I'm trying to make sense of the first point about Internet freedom of speech though ...

I knew this was a regalsin topic the moment I spotted the title on the main board

Regis you are batshit crazy, anti-Zionist, and possibly a paedophile.

But in the nicest possible way, my sweet.

Now that you mention it, it looks like a subject header for spam e-mails ...

[Raison D'etritus]

Careful on this topic, there Regis; freedom of speech is an illusion. If your opinions of cyber bullying contrasts with somebody else's, you'll find yourself the victim of cyber bullying for the accusation of being a cyber bully. I'd hate to see your brillaint, mature, and well-bred ass banned for having a personal opinion!

Regis you are batshit crazy, anti-Zionist, and possibly a paedophile.

Even his wiki page is a cyber-bully!

Regalsin, you need to make your point clearer in topics like this. Fewer words, and more... I dunno... theses? ;) Because I have very little idea what you're trying to say.

I'm actually surprised there's someone else out there that's more scatterbrained and prone to talking about multiple topics in one post than me! XD

[Ashurei]

I'd love to give one of these posts to an English professor, just to see what they do. They wouldn't know where to start.

For extra lulz effect, give it to one on April Fool's Day.

Well you're pretty much the only person who tries to have a serious discussion, the rest of us just kind of think 'Oh regalsin' like a parent resigned to their child's silliness.

[AllenSmithee]

Considering his history on other forums though...

[Peytral]

Frankly, I'm too hot and too tired to try and make sense of his topics.

I ignore that, as you all should. People should not be judged by their past actions; rather, they should be judged by who they are and what they do TODAY.

For the moment, that means Regalsin is to be judged as the starter of confusingly long-winded topics.

-Tom

Even in law that has its limits though.

I can imagine its application, though.
Defense: "Yes he raped and murdered seven girls, but that was SOOO last year! Since the commencment of this trial, he hasn't raped ANYBODY! Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, Let him go!"

My personal take on him: he's not serious enough that it's easy to take him unseriously. I don't understand why people get so worked up over him. I don't think he's any different than who he ever was; but who was, and still is, is, to me, entirely harmless.

I find it much more annoying when people communicate stupid ideas in a serious well-worded manner, as it gives them the semblance of equality, and makes me more inclined to treat them (wrongly) as equals.
If a baby goes "ga ga goo goo," you just pat the stupid creature on the head; if it says "ha ha old chap, jolly good show, and a pleasure to see you this fine morning. What's your opinion of that Barack Obama character, good fellow?" You'll try to reason with it even after it becomes clear it has the mushy unformed mind of a child.

Besides, I find the "gaa gaa gooing" kinda cute!

[regalsin]

What I am trying to say, is that one day the internet will become the movie teathers
of tommorow. A big teather where you can't say FIRE FIRE EVERYBODY RUN, BOMB.
You will get thrown into jail just for that.

You negotiate ( talk ) with people, and while your talking about things, regaurdless of there importance, you have to remember this very important fact in the back of your head. These people are not real until proven true, and your just negotiating with a VOIP and not a real human being, no matter what. However.

Place like

Myspace- limits what people can post on there

Facebooks - limits how people get together, actually got people to harvest moon

Youtube- dumbs down people, ability to create a webpage with videos, makes joe average looks like a god.

Ebay- basically creates a place for everybody to buy stuff and think they are safe. Like time sqaure for example, where all kinds of goofy people are in the open that would never see anywhere else.

Lastly Email. Email from the start haves you bound to the service of the email that you are using, Under there rules. Moving ahead you have the almighty

Chatrooms- which is what this is, but now with Camera's so we can watch people get naked even from Alaska.

The problem with all of these services, is that they zero in, on control. It takes a smart person to fight them.

Did you, know Europe has it's own version of ebay??? You can't join it since you ned to have an address in that area. It is also not English. The same with China and there own place to buy things, I found a bulk of Virtual boys brand new, but again I can't Register. Even Email companies are more then what you think.

The point is, Amazon AN EXPENSIVE PLACE I DO NOT BUY FROM. Takes one book down, and then people are even trying to bann the Koran.

Speaking of hate, and stupidity, In NYC people got together ( like hippies ) and protested against the building of the ( church building for Islamic people ), the "poor" guy even highered an Arcutech, who is a Rabbi, to help him model the outside of the building as a ( church building for Jews ) pretty weird huh??

The point I am making is that, why bann a book, when it is a PDF, and more importantly when somebody with some brains is just going to upload it, to get it shot down. They have eracists books, books on eating humans, so why not a book
for pedophiles?

The truth is, once you commit the actually crime, then owning such objects is what makes the judge consider your sanity. Not owning a book, or even a Blasted file.
The reason this makes me sick inside, is that I live in the USA, and I want release my cretivity. Thanks to the internet, and ignorant people, they are going to take away our most important right.

FREEDOM OF THE PRESS.
FREEDOM OF SPEECH.

It is almost like they can't tell fact from fiction. If I wrote a book about "How to be a good terrorist" would they lock me up? Hell no, since I am not a terrorist, and the people in the CIA,FBI, DEA, and what nots would read the book and say.....gimmie a break.

It almost like saying GTA teaches people how to become an convict on the run and escape the cops. Or mario teachers how to run faster. Ficitonal works are inspirative, but you can never, ever, ever blame any actions at all on a book.

THAT IS SAYING YOU ARE NOT SMARTER THEN A BOOK YOU READ.
Speaking of what I just said, my father read a book about "handling women"
and that is what got him divorced, but the reality is that he use too much profanity, and while I am his son, he takes things for granted. Has he changed, No way, he is an relationship with somebody who could not care if he leaves or not. He even tried
to "handle his woman" again which led to cops picking him up.

Using my father as an example. He was like that, even without the book. By reading the book, he felt like a scientist with some kind of ultimate answer, since
the book said the exact the same thing he was thinking. AGAIN.

THE BOOK SAID THE EXACT THING HE WAS THINKING. The book did not tell
him a differnt method, he just followed the book directions to the fullest. Like a god damn cook book. If the reader was thinking about making brownies they would not need the god damn book, they would make the bloody brownies, from trial and error. Like most people do.

Meaning the person already had the actions in mind, even before the book. They just got the book so they can say. "Oh look the devil made me do it" and the same could go for this guys dad.

You know butters dad you said "the computer made me do it" just like how my dad said "the devil made me do it" The devil never made him do it, he wanted to and brainwashed himself a book made him do it.

How retarded do you have to believe, Catcher in the rye, made somebody into a
murder majin. The truth is, the idiots who are against whatever can't understand.
It is a book, leave it alone. It might be taboo, in various nations, but how stupid do you have to be to commit a crime, period and blame it on ficiton, or even a book
teaching people how to handle there woman. Sad and duh stupifictial.

It wont be long before some spinless yellow bellied coward says, RegalSin words made me do it, I tried to resist but I couldn't, catch me lord I have read the word of Sin.....on the intranet. I don't blame RegalSin, but I blame his words. Crybaby.

It is like homosexual r-tard who said that the book using the word "Lolita" from the end of the WW era is what produced the usage of the word Lolita that is used in popculture today. Instead of just saying the usage of the word some how got mixed
in from Europe to Dundee and all the way back to Japan, meaning the same exact thing. Womenly girl.

Books/ words don't mean a god damn thing.
It is the person who chooses weither or not, the material in front of them is real.

WE NEED TO PROTECT FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION
WE NEED TO PROTECT FREEDOM OF ART
WE NEED TO PROTECT FREEDOM OF THE PRESS
WE NEED TO PROTECT FREEDOM OF SPEECH.

After all of those are taken away, what else can we do but proceed with the actions
we are not even allowed to have a mere thought of.

[Incog Neato]

LONGER!

Please write a longer post!

[korzic]

Well, actually, I read all of it. =p Whether he's trolling or actually serious, it often makes for an entertaining read. And I will say that I think he sometimes makes good points, but at the same time, his views often strike me as a little too "extreme" (please don't ask me to elaborate, as I've no intention of causing a debate, particularly of subjects that are, at best, passing interests for me).

But yeah, his posts could stand to be a little shorter.

[Ashurei]

That long diatribe was actually quite telling. Aside from obvious troll, I have new theories as to the origins of our dear Regis' incoherent ramblings.

Also, "Sad and duh stupifictial."
I lol'd. Comedy gold. You can't write this shit, it's priceless.
