A kid named Walter Easley kicked a cat and uploaded the video of it to Vine awhile back. Someone discovered the video and posted it to the usual hivemind sites (reddit begin one example). After the video became widely known the internet decided to deliver some "justice"
Video below:
The "justice" has come in the usual form of harassment in any way possible. In short time just about every bit of personal information about this kid was posted online for all to see. His twitter was spammed, his facebook was spammed, information about his family and their contact information was posted as well. Walter made the mistake of posting his phone number on twitter a few months ago and this was also found and put up for others to call.
So far a incomplete list of things that have been done to him just in the last 24 hours:
- Multiple people have reported him for animal cruelty to the ASPCA and other organizations.
- Multiple people have claimed to have e-mailed his football coach, teachers, and anyone else related to his school life and sent them copies of the video.
- Hes had countless pizzas show up as his mothers house.
- Multiple people have called the KKK and given them Walter's contact information.
- Someone called a male escort and managed to convince him to drive 2 hours to Walter's mothers house. Escort actually showed up at Walter's house only to be greeted at the door by Walter's mother.
- Multiple people have contacted his local news stations in an attempt to have a story made about this.
The internet can be cruel....although I suppose kicking a cat is cruel too. What do you guys think of this type of "justice"?
