He's rich, law doesn't apply to him as it might others... duh! 

Yeah how about you let us know when a tragedy hits your family so we can all take the **** and email you and your family jokes about it. Maybe if one of your kids dies it would provide us with much amusement. Send you pictures of little coffins etc.
Now I'm pretty damn sure there isn't a father I've ever met that would consider your reaction to me doing that 'over sensitive' when you ripped my throat out
I'm not offended myself by this guy sending messages or gaining notoriety on twitter as it's not my child, I just don't get what would drive a man whose clearly wealthy anyway to do this to make himself more well known. I was interested in the legalities of doing this and it seems he's sure he's in the clear.
I don't ever use twitter and I can understand why it's full of trolls, I just didn't get why the guy that abused Daley got a caution iirc and this guy hasn't even tried to hide who he is and has gone even further.
Did this waste of space make his money simply by appearing on Big Brother?

He is harassing and attacking the poor guy online. Has to be some protection around this surely? I don't know the ins and outs of the situation but what he is doing is wrong and I hope something is done about it.
It does actually.
Sorry but what has he done wrong, despite being a complete ****. If he had directed those at a non-celebrity would anyone have noticed/cared?Freedom of speech does not mean you can say what you want, when you want to, to whoever you want. It comes with responsibility.
The lad who got arrested about Tom Daley stuff was a nasty little git, but some of what was targetted at him was at least as bad as anything he'd said, probably worse. The ones targetting the celebrity get arrested though.
Actually, the people that get arrested are the people who have police complaints made against them. If you witnessed people abusing that Riley kid and thought it warranted it, you should have made a complaint.
Am I the only person that hasn't heard of this loser?
No, I hadn't heard of him until I read about these Tweets.

A fantastically well written and thought though piece.
Some people really need to stop and think before they post comments on twitter.
edit: wasn't sure if this deserved it's own thread, but put here as it's related..
