If anything, you're the one remaining ignorant. By all means, respond to this post and tell everyone how you "ripped it to shreds" and "owned" me, but you'll be hard-pressed to find me caring what you have to say (P.S. in case you were wondering [MENTION=5537]Locked[/MENTION], he's one of the people who cares about appearing cool online).
You guys are all so quick to jump to these predetermined opinions of her that you jump to conclusions without knowing all of the facts (note: I'm not claiming to know all of them either). The point that I'm trying to make is that you guys do not know this girl. You don't know whether or not she had been abused as a child, lived with parents that beat her, etc. There are so many variables that need to be taken into consideration when you call a girl a "slut." It's not like she was just going out and having sex with the guy cause she wanted to have sex, she went over because she needed a friend and he took advantage of her when she was clearly at a low point in her life. As if that's totally not Plan A in a guy getting laid strategy.
What you choose to ascertain from that video is your own, but don't be so hasty to label someone a slut because you think they're deserving of getting their ass kicked, or worse, dying.
Actually, I'd probably feel very sorry for her if I only read that biased article and watched her awfully pretentious video and decided at face value that OMG she did nothing to deserve this and she was such a pretty angel that was bullied to death!
...after reading the article, seeking out more info and finding out the other things that led to her suicide that was conveniently left out of the story I feel sorry for her the same way I feel sorry for people that are Darwin Awards material. I'm sad in the sense that they could have done better and survived if they hadn't disowned common sense at the earliest opportunity but I can't bring myself to pity them, especially if these people somehow get charged for murder WHEN no one was responsible for Amanda Todd's suicide but Amanda Todd herself.
Harassment charges? Yes. Assault charges? Yes. Murder? Hell no, she tied that noose herself both literally and figuratively because I don't care how bad of a background you have but there's just no hope for anyone that thinks that doing things like flashing and subsequently going to sleep with someone else's boyfriend is not going to land you in a steaming pile of pineapples.
Saying that she doesn't deserve to be called a slut is one thing, but shifting the blame to other parties like what the media is trying to do when she played a very conscious role in her own doom is quite another.
