Are you coward???

Have you ever known or met people who are backstabbers? I don't know why but it seems that there are a lot of people who enjoy badmouthing other people behind their back. With their spare time they either gossip or badmouth others, In the process they ended up judging others to the point of degrading others as if they were perfect. Don't they know what the Bible tells us about judging and gossiping?
"Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother's eye and pay no attention to plank in your own eye? How can you say to your brother, 'Let me take the speck out of your eye,' when all the time there is a plank in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother's eye."
-Matthew 7:1-5
"But I tell you that men will have to give account on the day of judgement for every careless word they have spoken."
-Matthew 12:36
"The tongue is a small part of the body, but it makes great boasts. Consider what a great forest is set on fire by a small spark. The tongue also is a fire, a world of evil among the parts of the body. It corrupts the whole person, sets the whole course of his life on fire, and is itself set on fire by hell."
-James 3:5-6
Brothers, do not slander one another. Anyone who speaks against his brother or judges him speaks against the law and judges it. When you judge the law, you are not keeping it, but sitting judgement on it."
-James 4:11
"He who gossip betrays a confidence, but a trustworthy man keeps a secret"
-Proverbs 20:19
I don't know what they can get from talking about the lives of others or what they can get from backstabbing and degrading others. The most coward people in this world are those people who can't tell something against you straight to your face but instead saying those things against you behind your back. Not brave enough, right? Are you one of them? Are you coward?
