If you’re still confused, asking yourself some simple questions might help to clarify things.
Q. If Tyler Clementi were still alive, would Dharun Ravi and Molly Wei still be fucking assholes?
A. Yes! Because they filmed people having sex without their consent and then invited their friends to watch.
Q. If Tyler Clementi were straight, would Dharun Ravi and Molly Wei still be fucking assholes?
A. Yes! Because they filmed people having sex without their consent and then invited their friends to watch.
They were not "nice" kids. At 18 they weren't even kids. They were not "just having fun." They deliberately and repeatedly stripped any privacy from two of their peers just for laughs and invited all their friends to join the dogpile. The only reason we're not hearing about the other boy is that he's still alive.
Did Ravi and Wei mean to kill Clementi? No. Did they commit a crime? Yes. Are they total fucking assholes? HELL YES.
