N
o Reckless Internet Posting better
known as No R.I.P.
is a movement started and
led by entertainment mogul
and rapper Waka Flocka’s
mother, Debra Antney. Ms.
Antney and her family have
had documented turbulent relationships with several blogs
and other media outlets which
have sensationalized stories
to garner popularity for their
site as well as to drive traffic
to the site. These tumultuous
relationships cost Ms Antney
her twenty-two year old son
Caodes “KayO” Scott.
During the 2013 Christmas
Holiday season the stresses
and pressures of the world
forced KayO to do the only
thing he knew to ease the
pain and end his own life.
KayO’s kind heart often wept
due to the malicious, reckless, and thoughtless people
who spread vicious rumors as
well as fueled harmful gossip
about not only himself but
his mother and other family
members.
Ms. Antney is determined
her son’s silenced voice be
heard by the world! She also
hopes to speak for the millions of people living through
the same storm while encouraging positive change in
not just media but also in the
Global Online Community.
“In every test there is testimony. Through all adversity
www.MisfitTunes.com
there is a lesson to be learned.
And in cleaning up the mess
around us often times you’ll
find a message.” For Ms.
Antney and the supporters
of the No R.I.P. movement
the message is simple… NO
RECKLESS INTERNET
POSTING! NO R.I.P.
What It Means to Pledge No
R.I.P.?
* KayO never supported the
saying “Rest in Peace” because he believed that people lived on in their spirits
forever. Instead, he would
say “Long Live” to whoever transitioned on. In loving
memory of Caodes “KayO”
Scott, the No R.I.P. movement will take on a life of its
own and continue. No R.I.P.
#LLKayO
* When you gossip and
spread rumors and recklessly
post about people’s lives, you
are speaking death - killing
their spirits, killing their reputations, killing their relationships, killing their hope and
so much more. Stop speaking
death. No R.I.P.
* We are afforded the rights
of free speech, freedom of the
press, etc. However, we also
have a humane responsibility
to each other. As media, we
encourage all bloggers and
other members of the media
to take the No R.I.P. pledge
and post responsibly on your
site; report responsibly on
your shows. As a communi-
ty, care for one another. Be
mindful that words do hurt
and can cause damage. Focus
on the positive, not the negative. Focus on the truth, and
not the gossip and the rumors.
