When somebody is oblivious to a large news story. You kinda want to smack some sense into them, amirite?

I think it depends on what the news story is about, if it was about a celebrity scandal like Charlie Sheen earlier this year I wouldn't give a shit. If it was something like Darfur, Egypt, Libya, etc I would probably be mad.

If it was something like Anthony Weiner or Casey Anthony, it'd be surprising, but I wouldn't be mad. If it's like the 2011 African Revolution, I'd be surprised more-so, but still not mad.

Hey everyone, South Sudan is now a country. BUT DID YOU HEAR CASEY ANTHONY GOT OFF????

The media controls so much of what we see and they publicize what people care about. Sadly, more people care about bullshit celebrity stuff than revolutions in other countries.

*cough* Casey freaking Anthony getting away with the murder of her two year old daughter who would be almost six by now!!! Ah that made me so angry!

by Anonymous 12 years ago

Quick question: Why does it make you angry?

by Anonymous 12 years ago

Because even if Casey DIDNT kill Caylee, a mother who has lost their two year old daughter doesn't act the way Casey did. They don't stroll around like nothing happened and keep the death a secret and go out and get a tattoo that say "Beautiful life". It's sickening to think about.

Maybe she was so distraught by the event that she tried to cover it up in her mind. Maybe even thinking about her child dying would cause her to curl up in pain and think suicidal thoughts. Do you expect every single person on earth to be perfectly fine with death, maybe cry for a few days and tell people all about it? Did you think maybe she was trying to cope with the death of her child by pretending it never happened? Apparently not.

Whoa. I didn't mean to get personal. I have thought about that once or twice. I've just never really dug into it the way you obviously have. Whether Casey Anthony is guilty or not, that child is dead so God rest her soul and hope that Casey will find peace...:( can we agree on that much?

Yeah we can. I'm just sick of people overreacting about one simple case. There are probably 1000 court cases a day in which criminals are rightly prosecuted with solid evidence, and people hardly give that a second thought. All of a sudden, one "huge failure to the court system" comes out and everybody goes nuts.

I think I'm mostly at peace because the court had to have had a solid reason to let her off. They wouldn't just do that. Especially in her case scenario.

Yeah. I agree.

I was talking with a friend of mine and her parents, and we got into a discussion about global warming, and she goes, "Why is global warming bad again?"
