These pleas to lock up teenagers and their parents over speech are antisocial. Good thing there is the first amendment to protect you from someone using the state to personally seek revenge for any offense you caused.

How is criminal harassment protected speech? Oh wait, it’s not and this is a garbage argument.

  It has to be a credible threat

  Mature response, I see you live in Canada so maybe you don't understand free speech, but harassment has to be a pattern reprated by an individual against another individual or deprive someone of access to some resource and a threat needs to be credible, but thanks for weighing in on how you think another countries laws should be interpreted. https://www.thefire.org/resources/free-speech-freshman-orientation/limits-to-free-speech/ https://www.thefire.org/resources/free-speech-freshman-orien...

    Wow, thank you for the law class. However your knowledge seems rather selective. Have you ever come across this law? https://www.govinfo.gov/app/details/USCODE-2011-title47/USCODE-2011-title47-chap5-subchapII-partI-sec223 https://www.govinfo.gov/app/details/USCODE-2011-title47/USCO...

      I'm more interested in ethics than the law since I'm not a lawyer. Hopefully someone challenges the constitutionality of that law though because it seems overly broad to me.. "The utilization of telecommunication devices without disclosing (one's) IDENTITY to annoy, abuse, threaten, or harass any person at the called number or who receives the communications." Like you're annoying me over the internet right now and I'd like to have you charged and sentenced to 2 years for federal cyber stalking ?? Lol, that seems appropriate to you? I give up, have a good one buddy.

        Well, while you were being more interested in whatever the hell you're interested in, your crew of evil trolls accomplished their goal: https://github.com/tenacityteam/tenacity/issues/99 https://github.com/tenacityteam/tenacity/issues/99 In good news, the police are involved now. I hope that every single piece of trash involved goes to prison for a very long time.

        Yea people that advocate free speech aren't necessarily part of the troll crew, so I don't appreciate that libelous insinuation.
