by just talking to them
Depression doesn't exist? LOL
because I've got some news for you buster
If you're bullying and harassing someone, you're actively trying to hurt them
No sweetheart, that's a gross misrepresentation of my argument
But wouldn't that be freedom of speech?
You're picking one sentence and laying into me on it without the full context
"If you're making someone cry, that's harassment"
was your whole statement
Do you understand the difference between harassment and free speech?
I do indeed
To the extend that you're harassing them
They're a whole conversation around that sentence
ok so if I am calmly talking to you about how shitty you are, is that illegal?
and it makes you cry and jump off a bridge?
Here
"Harassment is governed by state laws, which vary by state, but is generally defined as a course of conduct which annoys, threatens, intimidates, alarms, or puts a person in fear of their safety."
yes that is the broad definition, not legal, of harassment
If your speech is threatening, intimidating, or cause another person to cry in fear then that is harassment
I don't literally mean that someone crying cause of something you said it harassment
Anything can make anyone cry.
That's absurd and you know taht you're misreprensting my point.
no your point is silly
That wasn't my point
we're talking from a legal perspective yes?
you said that
that's your statement
we're taking about harassment
from a legal perspective?
or a general one
If you're harassing someone to the point they cry
If you won't lay off someone and keep talking to them until they cry, your speech has become harassment
because your speech is causing the situation
It's not the words themselves that are bad
what situation are you talking about
It's the act of harassing that is
*are we talking about the law or just the word harassment*
Since we're discussing freedom of speech and what is or isn't protected, we should refer to the legal definition
US?
