Amanda Tood Vol. No Sympathy in This Side of Town

All im gonna say is... its easy to judge her from our positions.

Was she naive? Yes. Was she perhaps not thick skinned? Yes. Was she immature emotionally? Yes.

But can you blame her? No, blame the world around her.

but she did a common thing and it unfolded on her in horrible ways.

Wait a tic, a grade 7 girl flashing on cam for multiple people she doesn't know is surely not a common thing. If it is, #ripEarth

I wonder what happened to all the girls who flashed HB while we were trolling BlogTV.

So we can't blame people for making their mistakes? That's logical

Well I wouldnt like my statement to be generalized like this, but in this specific situations and many others, I'd say it's more illogical to put the blame on her, for reasons I already talked bout.

They moved on with their lives

^^ what do you mean? Compassion is one thing. Stating the truth is another.

What's the point of stating the truth when she's already dead? What she needed is this

she was in gr 7 b. who duznt look for validation and love at that age, especially girls. it sickens me that u can blame her for being the victim of a society hooked on social networks and a couple of dumb young guys who took advantage of her innocence.

She was young, confused, naive and didn't know better. Depression is a bitch especially when you think you're stuck with nobody else. There isn't any point of telling everybody the "truth" it's too late. She's dead. Y'all might not understand this now but as soon as y'all have someone you love or felt accepted then got left behind you would feel the same way as her. She was just human who couldn't overcome her struggles. There no point in saying that she's "over privilege, or she isn't from Africa, or that she took her life for granted." we dunno what she felt that led to kill herself. Insulting the dead? Now thats Insensitive. Y'all need to stop acting like youre better than her and that she "deserved to die" smh

Edit: stay positive and live a better life

Can I get an AMEN?!?!?!?!

Edit2: wait till y'all have daughters

No one is saying she deserved to die. We're just pointing out that she took the cowardly way out. I mean back in my high school some bitch got blasted. Bitch was a freshman too Some nikkas made a fake myspace(Yes DSteezy is old) and posted pics of her going down on a nikka and then doing work. Shit didn't phase her nah mean. She held her head high and still went on. Only reason I brought up Africa is because this bitch was facing depression meanwhile African babies are facing starvation yet they still cherish life



Look at the smile on that baby. Come on nikkas depression? Son my mother gave me away she didn't want to raise me. My father? Shit for all I know it can be 50 Cent

DSteezy still made it thru all those years from getting bullied at the park to being posted on the block

And when I have a daughter, imma pull that Will Smith and Martin Lawrence move from bad boys 2

Bitches show their tits all the god damn time, i've seen so many nudes of girls i barely know and i don't judge em for shit and neither does anyone else. Her own damn fault she let that dude fuck her instead of reporting him to the damn police, and her own fault she started drinking and doing drugs and fucking other girls boyfriends.
All her own damn fault, and she couldn't handle the consequences.
Sure it's never cool when someone is so sad they off themselves, but im not gonna feel sorry for this chick when so much worse shit happens to people and they still pull through.

Regardless of whether or not you're smarter than her, stronger than her, or whatever....it's still sad. It was a dumb choice. Still sad. She brought it on herself. It's still sad. Not the saddest thing in the world. But it's not a reason for joy. It's not something to be neutral about. It's sad. On a sadness scale of 1-10, this probably ranks like a 1 for me personally. But even a one on a sadness scale admits that it's still sad.

So, again, instead of bashing a chick for being dumb and killing herself over it...admit that it's sad, and learn something from it so that you ensure your kids don't make the same dumb decisions. There really shouldn't even be a debate over this.

This discussion is removed from the people that knew/loved her though, so it's better that it happen here than on a dedication page on Facebook.

It's sad for people involved. Why should those of us not involved even bat an eye for her? How does this affect us? It shouldn't. Why do why empathise with her? 'Cause she's an average white high-school girl? Why do I see so much about Amanda Todd on my fb feed, and absolutely nothing about Malala Yousufzai? One was shot for wanting education available to ALL females. The other killed herself over being harassed at school. Amanda Todd isn't even a 1 on that scale to me.

im not the type of person who gets sad about every death or tragic events that happens to someone i never knew. no disrespect to you or that girl but life is too short to mourn over people who dont matter to me.

Let's all blame a 7th grade girl for getting black mailed and manipulated by a sick pervert. You guys are fucking pathetic.
