This crap touched way too close to home, and I'd never heard anything even remotely like it, Thank God.
This site is for discussion. What the hell is there to discuss about this tabloid trash?

Boreas, if you don't like it, don't post and bump it to the top in the process.

Maybe you should start a thread on whining, bitching, and caterwauling, I think that might be more up your alley

As far as tabloid trash, unfortunately this isn't big-foot or space aliens, the guy is real, and this inhuman act actually happened. That's what makes this so awful and incomprehensible.

It is an unusual post, especially for a first post.

Yes we all agree it is vile.

Welcome to Political chat, sorry if I misinterpreted your first post.

No doubt it's unusual, I guess I just needed a vent on this after hearing about it for the first time yesterday. As I said in my first post, this kid was from my hometown of 4,000people, 2 years younger than I. Everybody knew everybody.

The thought that you can grow up around a monster of this proportion and not know it rattles me, and I felt it might be worth posting.

Welcome to the dog pound. I am afraid to open that today and read it. My
day is going pretty good so far. Would be willing to discuss bigfoots and such.
There is still a whole family of them living in them thar hills. I know because
I saw it on CNN last year.

Happens in nursing homes all the time. Disgusting? Certainly. Incomprehensible? Sadly, no.

How can you say that a world with AudioKarma, Neil Young and Leo Kottke in it is not worth living in?

It does happen in nursing homes, but rarely is it the grandson doing it to granny, and rarely does it start at 12yo and 79yo. Unreal.

Understandable now that you have put it in context.

Sorry I came on a little strong. I've been a little tetchy for a couple of days.

I do think, as presented, your post was sort of prurient and irrelevant but I think what you've said above could provoke some meaningful conversation, precisely because things and people like this aren't quite so rare as we'd like to believe.
