So in the news recently, the new Miss Teen USA pageant winner was a potential victim of a "sextortion", a 19 year old dude was arrested for hacking into the webcams of several women and taking nude pictures of them. So you think this would be a straight forward deal right? Obviously the guy is a scumbag. Ha.

And this is ONE example. I've been dumb enough to go into articles of all sorts in the vain belief that maybe they won't be as horrible as they tend to be. These people are so skilled, they could turn an article about, say, a dog riding a skateboard and turn into in a flame war about Obama in second.
I know people think Bungie.net is bad...but MSN is just a whole new level.

Didn't superman use the "Short Dress" argument about sexual assault just the other day? He then went on to defend it through 120+ replies? Isn't this the same place that blames every single bully-suicide victim instead of the bully? Don't we have members who regularly post every black on white crime as a way to show media bias in Zimmerman? This shit happens daily here. Am I surprised that people in the comfort and anonymity of their room posted stuff that is hurtful to the victims of a crime? No, not in the slightest. But to say they are worse than anywhere else, or even here...
