Comments on Facebook Video

This video was absolutely ridiculous. There is nothing wrong with Facebook. Its how the people act on it that get them into trouble. Bullying, in my opinion, occurs because one person insults another person by saying or doing something to anger them. Most people on Facebook feel invincible and say whatever they want because they think they won't get punished through a screen. However, everything a person writes gets permanently saved on the internet and if someone writes something about another person, they will most likely see it. People who feel invincible and write things carelessly need to know that it could get them hurt. I am not supporting bullying in any way. I am just saying that people need to watch what they say on Facebook before they hurt someone and in the end hurt themselves. Facebook isn't a place where people go to find someone to bully. Its a place where people get to connect.

Akash - Thanks for your heartfelt comment on the Principal's words. I agree that social media is about connections and these can be either positive or negative. It is really up to the user and we should not all be punished for the poor decisions of a few.
