Bullying's a matter of opinion, not fact. I believe in free speech some of which may be seen as bullying by some but not by others.

No doubt the bullies see it as their right of free speech.The others who see it as bullying are no doubt their victims.

In school bullies usually worked as part of a group, usually targeted one or two individuals by insulting, accusing and threatening.
Sounds familiar, doesn't it?

If they are breaking the law report them to the appropriate authorities if there is sufficient evidence.
If they are not and there isn't there is always the "off" button.

And there is, always going to the papers to highlight  the situation and get the law, changed

So when it's, against  your children it's bullying... Against others, it's free-speech.... I think we expected that... Earlier you described jt as nasty cowardly  behaviour.... Now it's free speech

There would be no Madeleine forums if a significant proportion of people hadn’t decided to be outraged about the McCanns and the decisions they made in the first place.

And equally there wouldn't be if a handful of self appointed defenders hadn't emerged.

I believe everything. And l believe nothing.
I suspect everyone. And l suspect no one.

Which came first?
The attack or the defence?

I think It's one thing calling an anonymous blogger stupid but that isn't the same as directing abuse at a real person... Martin Brunt can doorstep me any day... I stand by everthing I have said... That doesn't seem to be the same for the sceptics.... I think brenda deserved to be named and shamed and I'd like more, anonymous bloggers, getting the same treatment...

By G-Unit's own definition Brenda behaved in a reprehensible fashion, though she would never come straight out and say so.  Brenda went beyond calling someone stupid.  She repeatedly accused the McCanns of being murderers, and bullied a young woman quite mercilessly (the fact that she was mistaken in her target is neither here nor there, the intent to hurt and bully is the issue here).  In fact I haven't heard a single sceptic describe Brenda's actions as in any way reprehensible, all we ever here is what a lovely lady she was.  Well I'm sorry but I don't find her actions particularly lovely.   I'm sure she was a delight in real life, but why did she have to be so vile online?

Would you care to put a number against that?

Ultimately, yes, but some laws come about owing initially to the activism of members of the public.
