Usually, these abusive comments are directed at public figures, or people who are well-known through the media.

Talk about incidents that happened due to abusive comments.
Abusive comments are a major social issue.
It's usually possible to write things anonymously online.
That's why some people write terrible things willy-nilly.
Famous celebrities or public figures often sustain damage due to these comments.
They can be emotionally wounded.
In some cases, victims even end their own life.
I think there should be stronger legal measures to severely punish people who make it a habit to write such comments.
Also, maybe people should *only* write online under their own name.
Such a measure should *at least* be on the table.
