For those who claim that “you shouldn’t be on the internet if you can’t take being insulted or ridiculed”, you probably won’t like this story: [http://bleacherreport.com/articles/2645322-cleveland-fan-gets-fired-for-rude-tweets-at-steph-currys-sister-regarding-riley](http://bleacherreport.com/articles/2645322-cleveland-fan-gets-fired-for-rude-tweets-at-steph-currys-sister-regarding-riley) A person was fired from his job for attacking Curry’s sister via Twitter. I’m grateful that there are still some employers/companies out there who take bullying/attacking others via the cyberspace seriously and are willing to put a stop to it. ---

With those kind of “people skills” I’m amazed that dude managed to get a job at all. ---

OR we could simply not bully others at all, regardless of the medium. ---

@ThePoolshark @Professor_Memes To be fair, most internet bullies aren’t know for being particularly intelligent. 🙂 ---

Ahhh yes. The “survival of the fittest” doctrine. It’s amazing just how little we’ve progressed as a society after all this time. That and some gamers are socially maladjusted and can’t relate to their non-gaming peers. ---

Yes, because being polite and civil to others is making the world a worse place to live. And this is why I have no friends who are gamers. No, all my friends are relatively much more socially adept and adjusted. It’s a small price to pay that none of them are gamers. ---

The world is full of people who have little to no respect for others and want to make others suffer to feel “good” and get attention anyway they can. The Internet is the perfect place for these types of people where they can hide behind a user name and reach an audience of many people. I handle it by choosing to ignore these types of people as they tend to stick to their toxic ways and let them deal with the consequences of their actions regardless if it’s just making themselves look bad to action taken against their account(s) or involving real life consequences such as being fired from their job and civil lawsuits to criminal charges. The best way to avoid toxic people is to surround yourself with good people who will support you. I’d rather have 10 friends who are outstanding people and accept me for who I am in both good and bad times than 100 friends that are questionable and won’t stick by my side during bad times. Evil is successful only when good people do nothing about it. While the 1st Amendment to the US Constitution allows people the right to say whatever they want, whenever they choose to say it, however they choose to say it, and what form of media to say it on, it won’t shield them from the consequences of their words. The only way society will change is if people can stand up to these people in the right way for the situation. Ignoring their posts and videos works fine for the Internet(Facebook is full of these people), but dealing with them in person is another ballpark, especially if it’s your family. Promoting the good in this world while ignoring stupid stuff and giving lots of attention to the people that make this world a better place while denying attention to bad people. Bullies can only win if you drop to their level to deal with them. ---

How To Deal With Online Bullies: ignore them. It’s the internet not high school where you nerds have to deal with kids beating you up. seriously. ---

But if someone has had a background check and passed the test and competency course (This is Australia) than It is no one’s business what they own, unless they try purchasing an rpg or a tank.

Ignoring a problem is tantamount to being a part of the problem. Problems require solutions so that others aren’t harassed and persecuted. ---
