Boy, she sure knows how to make her parents proud.

So... let me see if I've got this straight. A student puts out an amateur video about shooting up a school and she is facing prison time because her words might have instigated violence against others? IF that's correct, why in THE HELL, aren't media corporations being held to the same standard? They lie every day. They twist facts and sometimes even create narratives that are totally false, KNOWING it could foment violence.

I wonder how many "views" she got?

I think this country is fucked in another 10 years or so. It's already kinda fucked in some places, but it's gonna get bad when today's teenagers find out the gov't can't give them everything they want for free. I wonder if all those Illegals that came here will be going back home.

Ummm, a cheap ass music video is no reason to arrest this kid and threaten her with a criminal record…

This will truly hit the USSC if convicted!

 

[Montrovant]

WTF, using a computer to commit a crime can lead to a 20 year sentence?

She probably thought she had free speech. Used to; don't anymore. Anyone thing it's a GOOD idea to charge for a "word crime"?

If I ran the zoo, said a book by Dr. Seuss recently censored ------

The only crimes would be physical: hurting people and taking their stuff. Computer crime like ransomware would count as taking. NO WORD CRIMES. NO THOUGHT CRIMES.

It IS contagious, I realize that. There were almost no such shootings before Columbine, but since, wow, dozens and dozens. Apparently many, many kids got real excited by this in Michigan and have been threatening their schools daily! Is this a black thing? this girl was doing a "rap" performance, maybe she is black.

 

[SassyIrishLass]

90% of rap music is violence... talk about opening a can of worms

God can and does help us when we help ourselves. Cases in point: the Boston Tea Party, The Revolutionary War, the Battle of New Orleans.

Did you just ask if school shootings are a "black thing"?

 

[Circe]

Well, in this case I meant the girl who was charged. A "rap" about shooting up her school? Sounds like a black thing. I know most school schootings, by no means all, are white, so far.

 

[Papageorgio]

So we can rap and publish songs about killing cops, raping and beating women but a song about a school shooting is criminal? What happened to freedom of expression? Not my type of music or subject matter but the 1st Amendment is a protection.

... it's gonna get bad when today's teenagers find out the gov't can't give them everything they want for free. ...

They know.

 

[Resnic]

But all the blacks online showing videos talking about killing whitey and stealing shit is fine and dandy.
