Ha, ha, I knew I could count on Freepers for some amusing comments. :-)
Do you think people are getting sicker and weirder? I wonder about it. Maybe a small percentage of the population has always been that way, and we just hear about them more often. But, I wouldn’t rule out the prevalence of hard-core internet porn as an influence. We joke because it creeps us out, but I’ll bet that mother didn’t feel like it was so funny.
Anyway, how would someone do something like that? He’d have to be a human pretzel like a creature on the X-files!
