        @ramrhonda Absolutely. Seizures can be deadly. Attempted murder is no joke.

        The person who sent the message deserves to be prosecuted. Especially since the tweet told the reporter he deserves it. SAD un-American

        If you're that susceptible to flashing lights, I'd suggest staying off computers/web period.

        It was the strobe lights fault not the person who sent it. Just like it was the truck that killed 12 in Germany not jihadists.

        frivolous law suit! Doctors tell people with epilepsy not to play video games or use any electronic device that may use flashing light!
