Evan Layton says “social justice is complete equality of all people.” Cyber bullying infringes on people’s right to be completely equal. Cyber bullying is a way to put people down in a way that makes you remain anonymous. Whether its because someone is from a different ethnical background, they’re of a different sexual orientation,  they believe in a different faith or even if they are a little over weight, kids all over the United States are being bullied for being different. This has only recently become a problem because of the advancement in technology and the immaturity level of today’s youth. In my opinion there is no sure way to prevent cyber bullying indefinitely. You can put age restrictions on websites but that will not stop people from getting past them by simply saying they’re they are of age. There will always be some form of bullying in the world. In the past you hear of people being shoved in lockers, and today you hear of kids being teased online. It is a terrible thing to think about, however there is really is no “cure” to cyber bullying. Many people, including teenagers, commit suicide or even mass killing because of the teasing that they receive all because they were different from everyone else. While cyber bullying is a horrendous act and causes many people to end their lives, I believe there isn’t much that can be done about it.
