Her statement made me sick in my stomach, but also the statement from others that I read in your posting.

I'm terrible sorry, but for me, it's more criminal to threaten someone, just because this person have made some sick statement.

Forgot one important thing.

If she is wrong about her statement then they also should sue her for insult(or what you call it)

Not offended at all by your comment. Agree some did go to far, threatening her and her family would of been heat of the moment stuff.

Yes the family could take out a grievance court action against her.

Another example of the bad combination of social media and poor judgement. Sumner-Burstyn could have made her views known about that war in any number of ways, without ever bringing Jacinda Bakers' name into the argument. It simply wasn't necessary to make her point.

Now she has put herself and her family in danger and caused unnecessary grief for the soldiers' family. Very poor judgement.

Agreed...no need to personalise her views.
