Pulmonary hypertension means that she is possibly going to be taking alpha or beta blockers. If the blood pressure is the result of atherosclerosis then the doctor may describe her to take a statin like Lipitor (atorvastatin) or Crestor (rosuvostatin),

Sorry, I added a bit more to the initial post.

Herd behavior describes how individuals in a group can act together without planned direction. The term pertains to the behavior of animals in herds, flocks, schools, demonstrations, riots and general strikes,[1] sporting events, religious gatherings, episodes of mob violence and everyday decision-making, judgment and opinion-forming. - Wikipedia Looking badass implies that you think that each individual who posted tried to post with the intention of seeming like a big badass. In other words, elevating themselves based on metrics of violence and apathy as a means to extend an intimidating image for others to observe. I don't think that this is the case since the internet badass tends to be singular, one person who tries to show off to many people in order to make himself seem intimidating. However, in this case the status quo of the tone is what intimidating things you would do to the person that killed a loved one. In this sense, there is no point in showing off how vicious you can be to another person because everyone else is doing the same. What would be more profound is if someone tried to be logical or rational in this hypothetical situation and criticizing others for playing into it.

People were likely being guided by the tone in the opening post.

I believe that solitary confinement in prison would make one realize the value of life. However, I doubt that you could ever make them repent for the actual crime they committed. Imprisonment enforces compliance by placing a harsh disincentive on committing crimes that harm a collective society: murder, theft, rape, ect. However, this process does little to make the prisoners reevaluate their values, morals, ethics, or virtues when it comes to life. I don't think that punishment alone is an insufficient stimulus to make one actually realize what they did was fundamentally wrong and then to emotionally feel bad that they had punished someone else (the first step). It's not repentance if they regret being in prison, that's simply negative reinforcement behavior training that is also used on animals and repeated based on instinct.
