Per the medical examiner, these things did happen, and he recovered that evidence.

What alternate universe do you live in? You disgust me.

Sorry to disgust you. I was going by what the families had said here on local television. I guess it’s possible they were lying about it.

I posted this article about one hour ago.

There have been over 700 views and about 20 posts.

The article is not a vanity.

It's a legitimate breaking news story from a reputable site about a judge's sentence, issued yesterday, in a horrific murder case in Tennessee. Culturally, it is relevant to the way the media covers stories, and it tends to invite contemplation over the way the media selectively chooses when to play the "race" card.

Yet the post has been sent to "Chat," alongside UFO stories and the "Word of the Day." It strikes me that this post is as newsworthy as San Fran's banning of wood burning stoves and Jeb Bush's view of the movie "W", two posts in News/Activism.

I respectfully ask the Admin Moderator to send the post back to News/Activism.

Quote it from that link for me, please? Quote where it talks about reports of body parts being cut off are true.

Do you mean this part? "This criticism was also fueled by erroneous early reports of dismemberment and mutilations."

What about this part? "Some commentators have disagreed, notably including white nationalist Hal Turner, claiming that such a crime would include a motive of racial hate. This viewpoint was also repeated, along with erroneous rumors about the crime, in some conservative-leaning media, including blogger Michelle Malkin on Fox News's O'Reilly Factor program."

If you want to side with a white nationalist and his ilk, go ahead. Why don't you help them out? Add on some acts of cannibalism as well - maybe make them Satan worshippers while you're at it. Let's whip up a full scale riot, burn down the jail, all that good stuff. Or we could let the justice system do what it's supposed to do. One has been convicted. One down, four to go.

And I disgust you.
