    Social networking site causes another death

    This 16 year old boy was mowed down by a car driven by a 16 year old boy yesterday outside a mall. Apparently these two were fighting over a girl they met on either myspace or facebook for the past couple of weeks.

    16 year old got jealous and decided to take him out with his car. Now he is facing pre-meditated murder and vehicular homicide.

        facebook doesn't kill people...people kill people. angry people...vengeful people...out of control people. over 350 million people are now on facebook - one death (or even 10 or 50) is a pittance in this sea of humanity...

            It really didn't. But people will use it as an excuse in much the same way that they used the 'heavy metal causes suicide' etc.

                What's sad is that this mall is about 5 blocks from my house. This high school, was the same ghetto high school my ex went to. Too many thug wannabe's. It's a shame that the kid's younger brother and sister had to witness this.

                And I agree, social networking did not kill this kid. Idiot kids that think they're tough killed this kid. Here's to another Juvi that will spend life behind bars.

                  sad story all the way around.

                  And I agree with what others have stated, not sure how social networking caused this. I guess if they were talking on the phone to each other, then we could blame the telephone. Or if they passed notes, we could blame paper.
                  I can't shave with my eyes closed, meaning each day I have to look at myself in the mirror and respect who I see.

                    I hate how in society they blame random things when it was the people all along

                      Social networking? Clearly the automotive industry caused this death...

                              Facebook encourages violence with it's high tolerance and promoting of poking users.
