Far from free speech.

McCarty tweeted a picture of bananas captioned, "READY THE TROOPS," and wrote, "OOGA BOOGA," in another tweet directed at her, her suit says.
Not sure the founding fathers had that in mind when they fought for free speech.

The greatest civilisation, in terms of military strength and technological development, is European.
The same could be said of philosophy, medicine, legal systems and cultural impact and influence across the world.

Bingo.... more and more even fairly moderate conservative right wing comments are being looked at as hate speech....
Now I understand that's not the case here. But I'm sure if it were the otherway... black guy spamming some white dude with BLM, radical liberal shit would not be given a second look.

IMO the Internet and cell phone use is obsessive. Many people carry their mobil smart phones with them continuously day and night. Why do we think every call or email must be addressed immediately?

We have the freedom to say whatever we want to as long as we know there are consequences.

'What's good for the goose is good for the gander.' You are right, these things should go both ways.

Dangerous precedent. If someone disagrees with your politics, your stance on immigration and ideology can they use the perception of being harassed as a weaponized method to silence you? When courts get involved in silencing people we crossed the line into fascism.

Many years ago, a black person aggressively called me a "long nosed shit assed whitey." I got over it. Actually, we both did.

Yeah, but if today you called that person a big nosed, big lipped n word, per this precedent you could be in big trouble all over hurt feelings. 10 years ago and before people got over things. Now, because everyone is a victim, they don't.

Has nothing to do with Freedom of Speech. Once you organize people to threaten and harass someone, its a felony offense. Dude was lucky he didnt get any prison time

Slippery slope. I agree a person can't threaten someone with bodily harm but what is harassment? It means different things to different people. Most if not all of getbig could be sued on a daily basis for what goes on here. Much easier if people just stopped being offended by everything.

"Harassment is governed by state laws, which vary by state, but is generally defined as a course of conduct which annoys, threatens, intimidates, alarms, or puts a person in fear of their safety..."
Of course, what constitutes harassment is subjective, which is why we have a court of law to determine if X person is guilty of harassment.

Many folks are victims for profit.

Sometimes harassment goes too far. Some people are more sensitive than others. Some folks are only sensitive to certain things. If you are a person who is offended by everything, Getbig is no place for you.

Just because some are more sensitive than others means rights should be taken away? How do you know that "sensitive" person isn't just using that to weaponize against their opponents? It always seems like the minorities are very sensitive when attacked but have no problems viciously attacking their opponents.
The minorities on getbig like Wiggs and Vince G are not like this. They take huge amounts of shit but take it and give it right back. Many snowflakes in our society could learn from them.

Right. Well, it's probably in reaction to those well publicized cases which ended in suicide. "The recent increase in highly publicized cases of suicide that involve social media has drawn national attention to this topic." PMC US National Library of Medicine National Institutes of Health
