[quote]What's wrong with protecting your friend from verbal insult.[/quote] You mean other than it being illegal?
-
As is verbal abuse, which is what Broman was referring to.
-
No, it is not at least not in United States which is where Broman lives
-
The technical term is malicious harassment, which has various definitions depending or your state of residency, but is in fact illegal. Besides the fact that this is all a moot point because OP is overdramatizing Broman's claim, as it was a passing comment made only to demonstrate his loyalty to his friends, not a promise made with intent.

Edited by Schrecht: 6/6/2015 12:38:59 AMSo everyone on the internet should get a lawyer? I don't think so, because although I'm not a lawyer, every place I can find malicious harassment defined, it involves either physical violence, or threats, and always involve some protected category of person. Nowhere can I find a definition which involves simply saying mean things.

Yeah if haven't heard I think bullying is illegal to.

Consult a lawyer. Or the internet. Punch someone for words, and you could do time. They won't.
-
Yeah because I'm going to stay back and relax when someone constantly verbally attacks you.

I'm not talking about me I can handle my own, I'm talking about those who can't defend themselves.

Sorry for English not being my first language, I don't know proper grammer
-
[quote]Sorry for English not being my first language, I don't know proper grammer[/quote] Your grammar was fine. I was trying to think of someone who couldn't defend themselves verbally.
-
Oh sorry didn't realize you were pointing at a general group. But not them I'm talking about those who are not very good at verbally defending themselves.
