Even saying in your opinion that a "murderer was set free" is not healthy discourse. She was not proven to be a murderer. Saying she is one is deliberately inflammatory and drama provoking.
I have seen this dynamic run amok before under the guise of healthy discourse. I saw it when Michael Vick returned to the NFL and was praised by the President. Suddenly a man who was tried, convicted, and served his time needed to be raked over the coals in a very unnice way cuz people were disappointed with Obama's words on Vick.
I saw it with the "victims of the Superbowl". I saw it with bullying, saw it in "a site unexamined".
Ya'll have a thing for drama and anger. That isnt healthy discourse. Thats just drama and rage.
But we can agree to disagree.

Kobi,
I was truly trying to be considerate when i responded to you and stick to the thread's OP.
However, you are wrong. We don't have to agree on anything.
Our United States Judicial System must adhere to strict guidelines especially in capital murdur cases. Being found "not guilty" is not the same as being found innocent. Many times due to information being withheld from jurors over mistakes on obtaining evidence and so forth, jurors have caused many people to be sent to jail who were innocent as well as some that are free that are guilty. That, is a fact.
I believe this woman killed her child. I have that right to believe that. It is not drama provoking at all. It is MY opinion. There are lots of opinions here.
What is unhealthy is belittling MY opinion, accusing ME of unhealthy discourse and saying "ya'll" have a thing for anger and drama.
Pretty sure we were doing fine before you told "us" to take a deep breath and have calmer emotions. Pretty sure i don't need someone else to tell me how i feel. Pretty sure my emotions were and are in check.
I'm just upset at what happened today. If you don't agree with what i say, so be it. At this point, I truly don't give a flying fuck.
As far as what you just said trying to rip me a new one?
I did not deserve that.
VERY UNCOOL.
I'm done with this little blah blah...
On with the topic....
