What's a Working Definition of Responsibility

Just because we live with freedom of expression doesn't mean that we should simply castigate others, bully with words, purposely offend. Where are our restraints? Or because we have freedom does everything become allowable?

So what if we scar people. So what if we toss out slurs, post pictures, make videos-- damn the results.That seems to be the attitude of some people.

What's wrong with restraint? We've seen teenage suicides because people were bullied on the Internet.

What's wrong with taking responsibility for actions. Maybe we need to teach cause and effect.

That doesn't excuse the people who react by becoming violent.They too need to learn restraint, to recognize that the voice of a few individuals does not represent a people, a country.
