Who's accountable?

Asked by shadling21 (6501points) November 27th, 2008

Internet users urged Kevin Whitrick and Abraham Biggs to commit suicide.

How on earth do we hold these people responsible for their actions? Is the Internet so different from reality that we’d tell people to kill themselves? How do we make sure this doesn’t happen again? Have people pretended to kill themselves online, and is this affecting how we deal with such serious issues?
