Why isn't it bannable for people to tell people to kill themselves? Isn't that illegal?
>>
>>481230
If you screw up your suicide you can be charged with attempted murder of yourself in some places in the US. I guess if you look at it that way then Anons telling you to kill yourself are asking you to commit murder of yourself.

muh freedom

well they tell people to kill themselves ironically duh it's not literal pfff c'mon mang getwitcha programme t b q h!
>>
not if it's self-defense! :o

1) Website is 18+, it's not habbo hotel
2) It's like bullying, but this is an 18+ website
3) Imposing speech laws on people will ruin what 4chan is.
Blatant racism is only unwanted on most boards because it's just annoying after a while.
4) There is no way anyone other than 4Chan would be held liable and even then it would be a weak case.
5) But really, where is this illegal ?

1.) Irrelevant.
2.) Irrelevant.
3.) There are already speech laws on 4chan. Every rule 4chan has is a speech law.
4.) It is in 4chan's best interest to ban people who do things that could get 4chan in legal trouble. You're raised a point in support of OP.
5.) It's not, unless they actually go through with it.

>>481230
If someone tells you to kill yourself he probably has a very good reason to do so and you should consider his point of view.
>>
>>481230
Kill yourself.
>>
>>481463
This would not stand in a court-of-law.
>>
>>481561
Telling someone to kill themselves is not illegal in the United States unless you actually assist them in some way, thanks to the First Amendment.
>>
>>481561
because it wouldn't go to court.
>>
>>481569
citing a 230 year old law isn't very good legal advice

It's satire when you're exaggerating

Everytime I read "kill yourself faggit" I can only read it like a 14 year old in a high pitch voice.
>>
>>481293
Sorry you think this way. Reddit's around the corner.
>>

>4Chan
At least fucking put some effort in.
>>
>>481230
Fine, should we type "Never fucking reply to me again unless you're contributing to the thread" instead of missing a chance to insult you on your sensitivity, huh, is that what you want you fucking faggot? Kill yourself.
>>
>>481715
kill yourself
>>
>>481268
telling people to kill themselves is trolling and should be bannable.
>>
>>481704
Yeah. And?
>>
>>481929
And I'm about to head over there for some entertainment, would you like to join me? My username's Fartikus, hit me up with a friend request if you're interested.

Everyone in this thread should kill themselves.

>>481230
Kill yourself b8 fag

>>481958
Reddit doesn't have friend requests, dumbass.

>But how do you know that?

Gee I wonder.

I think you're mistaken.

Holy shit. Has that really been there the entire fucking time?

It might be recent, I haven't been keeping up with updates. In the interest of honesty I am also not Fartikus.

That 230 year old law trumps every newer law on the books. This isn't the UK.
>>
>>481610
The Constitution overrides any law that many contradict it. Minnesota struck down a law that prevents people from "encouraging" or "advising" suicide on First Amendment grounds a couple years ago.

She's being indicted on "involuntary manslaughter" charges because they can't get on her on speech. I don't think they'll be able to make it stick.

I'm pretty sure it should probably be hammered into everyone's heads that you shouldn't take any comment seriously on 4chan

>>481230
if you tell someone to kill themselves and they do it you can got to jail

Too bad I don't have a trip code so you can't filter me. Next time you read a comment by me, you won't even realize it's from a redditor.

Is that Homura on the upper right? What image is that from? I've seen all the others but not that one.

You're right, senpai, we should just tell everyone to commit Sudoku or become An Hiro, it's more kawaii that way~ :3

But really, you should kill yourself.
>>
>>481250
I don't think anyone actually gets put in jail, they just need a legal reason to put you into a mental facility.
>>
>>484389
How is that even remotely unique to reddit?
