Comments on: Lovestruck MySpace teen not guilty of harassment, court says

New York state judge rules that a series of "I love you" and similar messages sent through MySpace don't amount to the crime of aggravated harassment, which prosecutors had claimed.

Eloquent and just court decision

I enjoyed reading the judge's decision in this case - how often can you say that? Not only a just verdict (can we all calm down about social networking and learn to live with it?) but one with style!

Wholeheartedly Agree

The Judge is well read, educated, intelligent, and his opinion reads very well. I would not be surprised to see him further himself in politics beyond the bench.

The Real Love!

I deal with people from eight to eighty in all nations, human race all over the world, through out the four corners. And they all have one thing in commin, They are all seeking and searching for the real love from another human being... To share there life together as one human being to another human being. And The Real Love is in the hearts of everyone in the world, through out the four corners of the world. They bring it out in movies, music, and art. What beat the evil with in the world, is the unconditional love of Our Father God Almighty King Jesus Christ, Who is in our hearts, through out the four corners of the world in the human beings hearts of all nations, races, human beings. So life on earth can continue on for all etenrity. Forever Amen...

Thank God For Love and Getting Over It

I appreciate this ruling on a personal level, because I was very much in love and writing in my personal journals for a long time and would not want it to be construed as something then what it really is, me writing down exactly how I feel and what I went through... and I should as the owner be able to post, sell, redistributed these writings as long as it is understood for what it is and the time it was written... but I understand that certain individuals might take it to a next level... and that is a different story and should be handled appropriately by the law.

unchecked prosecutor

This guy needs to be taken out of his position of authority. Anybody that would bring a frivolous situation like this to be prosecuted should be dis-barred.

A judge with some common sense. Wow... I think I would have been less surprised by a talking canine.
