    Do you think it is possible for someone to do damage just by saying things?

    Are there a series of words and suggestions someone could do to induce others to do harmful things?

    Can words impact people at all?

      I think words are less damaging than bullets shot into someone’s body. If you are so fragile that words hurt you to the point of becoming a homicidal maniac, you should probably be checked into a behavioral health facility ASAP.

        Not an answer to the question. I require absolutes, not relative statements.:)
