I've about had it with bullies. Whether it's lunatic teabaggers hollering at fraidycat Democratic Congressmen, or geeky teenaged closet cases harassing nerdy classmates or asshats at Rutgers secretly taping a kid having sex with another guy and thinking how hilarious it would be to put it on the web. Yeah, fucking awesome. The victim decided to throw himself off the George Washington Bridge he was so humiliated. Now his bully roommate, Dharan Ravi, and female bully, Molly Wei, have been charged with some invasion of privacy bullshit charge. They need to be charged with a hate crime, and go away to a prison for quite a while to think about their asshattery.
The victim, 18 year old Tyler Clementi, was an accomplished musician who'd won scholarships and awards. I would think the two bullies, Dharan Ravi and Molly Wei, Indian and Chinese, would have some sort of compassion for other people perceived as being different. But no, bullies leap on others faster than a teabagger jumps on the crazy train. This train derailed big time. Bullying needs to be stopped but I'm not naive enough to think it ever will be stopped.
So instead I ask that bullies be stood up to. By us all. Bullies are chickenshits and if everyone realized that, they would cease to exist. So kick a bully's ass as soon as possible. Do it for your country.

everyone is guilty of something, but perhaps the easiest way to solve the problem here is to require Dahrun and Molly to submit their right hand (or left if they are left handed) and have them chopped off.
that would maim them for life, but still allow them to live a life and make a living. but still allow them to remember their bullying ways and be forever reminded of their actions caused someone to commit suicide.
they should also probably reimburse Clementi's family for all expenses future and past. and publically apologize and own up to their actions.
