Now, this news story is about some kid who cursed at/made an ass of himself towards some girl who broke up with him. This is fairly bad to begin with, but look at this kid's spelling.

I spell like that when I'm texting. At school, my class had gotten use to using txt spelling that it took 3 lectures and 4 weeks to stop writing like that. And I use language like that sometimes when I text. But I usually leave out a letter or two.

Actually, the Hitchhiker's Guide is the funniest thing I have ever read. And George Hutchins' website.
The Earth is a very small stage in a vast cosmic arena. Think of the rivers of blood spilled by all those generals and emperors so that, in glory and triumph, they could become the momentary masters of a fraction of a dot. Think of the endless cruelties visited by the inhabitants of one corner of this pixel on the scarcely distinguishable inhabitants of some other corner, how frequent their misunderstandings, how eager they are to kill one another, how fervent their hatreds.- Carl Sagan

Good grief. If this is the future of our nation, we are in one hell of a hellhole. Can't you see it now-

I'd make a risque joke about a nation invading a region.

hmmm...like...say...a Raider Nation, like any other Nation will engage in some predawn-Horizontal insertion of forces... it's just that a Raider Nation may not necessarily ask for permission nor insert where you want them to.

lolz
The defendant has already served a sentence requiring him to write a 500-word essay on the Columbine shootings. Philip Heithecker, the teen’s trial attorney, says the boy’s family appealed the judgment on principle.

“Law enforcement is really taking an approach with kids where it’s zero tolerance for everything,” says Heithecker. “I didn’t think he committed any wrongdoing … I wouldn’t want my kid having a juvenile record.”

Shortly after sending the texts, the boy apologized to his ex-girlfriend, according to the opinion. The two are now friends

what an odd story...

The threat was the one about going to school and shooting everyone and then blowing his brains out.

Also, I don't think anything he said qualifies as slander, especially given it was said to her and no one else.
