While I appreciate yu being apalled at Steves comment threatening to deck him if you ever meet him is just ... well ... boring. Put the gorilla away. All you do is stroke his ego some more. As the beatles said Let it Be. But appreciate you expressing your views - but let's leave violent undertones out of things .. Ta. B ..

She preyed on a young girl, communicated and made this girl fall into love with "supposedly him"! This woman (the boy) hit her hard - mentally, saying he doesn't want to continue this online relationship...in return, this girl committed suicide and still doesn't know she was dealing with a woman all that time. Police investigators eventually caught this woman who acted as the boy and contributed to this young girl's suicide. Obviously, your interpretation of this? That little gal should have grown a spine! I can not imagine the judge handling this matter, letting the woman off (she's jailed tho), saying "that teenage girl should have developed a spine". Imagine the public outcry following this...and yeah, apparently, you have no idea! I think your spine is disillusioned, by this, I mean your mind...and you are not treating people with respect and dignity. I have no respect for you whatsoever...and its you that ought to get your spine fixed up, because remember...its disillusioned! I am sure I will have no problems toppling you over,stripping you of your dignity - verbally, written, physically or otherwise! So, tread carefully mate and yes, I am aware I am bullying you in exchange for your bullying comment.

Rather than sit back and cop things in silence she has spoken out and given voice to a variety of situation that have caused her and many others a great deal of personal anguish. For that she has just received another wallop across the kisser. It is well known that victims often become abusers. I wonder if the abuse that you have dished out is a sign that you have been bullied or abused in someway. Rather than give voice in a civil way that can educate and inspire you have chosen to lash out. And in a most vile way. Denial can be a killer. Or, perhaps, you recognise some of yourself in this piece. You realise you have been the bully. Rather than accept and learn you have chosen to try and justify yourself by denying the damage you may have caused. Either way you are lucky we chose to print all comments here, good and bad, because your comments are the most obscene that have ever been aired on this site and are getting more attention than they deserve.

Many of us have been conditioned to accept this subtle form of bullying. Through dialogue like this we can assess our situations, decide if we are bullied, and have the power to decide what we want to do then. So don't belittle the experiences and thought processes of deaf and hi people... To go against what we have been conditioned to is very powerful and difficult.
