Cyber-Bullying doesn't have an age limit

On September 22, an 18-year old Rutgers student named Tyler Clementi committed suicide by jumping off the George Washington Bridge. What led him to this fate? Two fellow Rutgers University students, one being his roommate, decided that it was a good idea to videotape Tyler Clementi without him knowing while he was with his significant other, which happened to be another guy. One of the students posted on his Twitter feed information about what was happening and details on watching the acts live. It is clear in the situation that the people involved in this are cold-hearted individuals who do not value others privacy. It also shows that these people have no problem taking advantage of what technology offers for bad reasons. I agree with the author that these individuals should be frowned upon and convicted for involuntary manslaughter at the least, but I also think there is something more important to take from this story. There are people everyday that are victims of cyber bullying. I hope that any victims look at this story and know that there will always be people that will bully others. I also hope they learn that physical bullying or cyber bulling is never an excuse to kill yourself. This story teaches the value of life and the power of technology.
