Busybodies like these are the vanguard of the nannystate.I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891Comment

Are there any US laws against things like (for example) encouraging a person on a ledge to jump? There are a number of people on the internet that just need a 'push' to do things like suicide. There is a clear difference between encouraging jumping off a ledge and internet bullying, but the result can be similar.
I agree.May I also add that winning an emotional distress claim is very, very difficult unless the intent was absolutely clear that the person was performing the act to cause the emotional distress, and emotional distress would have be to severe, and the actions would had to have caused severe emotional distress in the average person.a.k.a. ainwood, CFC Forums Co-Administrator
