    I declared the trial not very interesting - and it isn't. That's why you don't have any national figures chiming in. No mass outrage on the political right. For all of tallanvor's b****ing the left-wing media, the right-wing media isn't really covering it either. This isn't front page news on FOX either.

    Why? Because there's nothing of interest to cover on a national scale. It's a trial of a despicable person. You don't have supporters on both sides. Infanticide is not a hot-button political issue. No one of note has made some crazy statement. As much as you want to create outrage at the media, there's nothing terribly surprising here.

    a glimpse into the hearts of darkness:

    read the grand jury report; watch the film.

    then see if you can remain so blasé.

    Well, as chronicled, you're kind of a fool who never saw a pile of sh-t that didn't seem too smelly to dive into with one of your online forays - so your inability to fathom due to lack of depth is about as unsurprising as possible as anything else in the universe, and possibly most parallel universes as well.

    I wonder if bassodore have bitcoined out the fetus/dead first grader exchange rate. It's the perfect marriage of pet projects.

    Not sure why these b****es be so riled up - you can use THREE DIMENSIONAL PRINTING to print your ass up some abortion stuff.

    It's reality, it's technology - get used to it. You can't regulate.

    sam, why are you (rightfully) so concerned with the deaths of white suburban schoolchildren, and yet, show astounding indifference to the deaths of black urban babies?

    Wow.

    This is one of the sickest things I have ever heard. I can't decide how anyone on this forum would have anything to say but that this is horribly disturbing and inhuman and everyone should know and be saddened.

    This should create an outrage and all we see here is indifference.

    Eh, who cares it's just babies getting beheaded, we need to move on and be outraged that people have 30 round clips.

    Time to trot out the SamFisher defensiveness checklist. It's clear as day when SamFisher knows that he is defending an "undefendable position" purely due to his political bias.

    1. Cursing -- CHECK

    2. Insults directed specifically at other posters -- CHECK

    3. Injections of "the absurd" -- CHECK

    4. Words in all caps -- CHECK

    Sam, it's ok to admit you're wrong. Even when you don't admit it, we can all see it.

    forcing women into using black-market abortion providers is surely the way to solve this!

    wait a second---

    Exactly. The irony here is that this sort of messed up practice would likely happen more often if abortion were outlawed.

    Fair enough - I was wrong on Fox.

    I didn't say it wasn't a story. I said the *trial* isn't a national story. CNN has covered the story itself at various times over the last few years - they just haven't talked much about the trial itself.

    the trial of a man who murdered hundreds of babies isn't news worthy? since when? The Timothy McVeigh trial got tons of press and he mostly killed adults.

    What the guy did is horrible. There should be laws against it.

    Internet - where b****y little anonymen wave the bloody coat hanger to trump dead first graders in order to avoid rational policy.

    Pretty embarrassing for you, so I'll just leave you to it. Fete away, milady.
