Bullycide
I learned that bullying is now a felony in many states due to suicidal incidents involcing bullying. Many people get bullyed everyday that they can't handle it no more. Many people don't think as this as a serious crime, but to the federal government, it is. Many anti bullying programs go to schools to show kids the consquences or how to prevent bullying
Something that could of stopped Ryan from committing suicide is he should of told his dad at first. Ryan didn't think of it as a bad thing at first, but the bullying continued. As it continued, it got way worse for Ryan. Also, Ryan's dad shouldn't even of let Ryan go online because looked what happened now.
