What happens after cyberbullying is what's important. Some people are not strong enough mentally to handle torments. Some of these victims try to commit suicide and succeed. Alex Pilkington, 17, was a victim of cyberbullying. She was not strong mentally to handle it, she committed suicide. The worst thing about this is that the vicious taunts persisted postmortem on the internet, on her tribute pages.
Another case of cyberbullying is this young girl Amber Cole. She was viciously taunted on networking sites as well. Amber had a video of her posted on the internet of her giving a young man oral sex on school grounds. I saw people posting things about her on YouTube, Facebook, and Twitter. Amber was so upset that she had twitted some things that had people thinking she was contemplating suicide.
Everyone will eventually be bullied, whether it's cyberbullying or not. The only way to prevent it is to not join any networking websites. We know that being bullying can lead to suicide or the death of the bully. When the person being bullied snaps and kills the bully, they are charged with murder. I feel that if the bully causes the victim to commit suicide then they should be charged with murder. Yes I know that they are not physically harming them but they are mentally. They are killing them in the inside. There needs to be a law for cyberbullying, especially if it leads to death.
