I'm not going to comment on Cherry's reply.. but I do get tired of the "it's legal in Aruba" to drink, gamble, etc. as though to imply then it's OK for 18 year olds to do that.... abortion is legal too.. can't say I agree with that..
This is absolutely tragic and sad... I cannot begin to imagine what her parents are going through - and yes I'm SURE a lot of parents will think twice now before sending their kids out of the states to places where it's "legal" to pary.
Well whether you get tired of it or not, the fact fact that it is legal in aruba to do some things that aren't legal here. My point was we might or might not agree with kids going there, but that it still isn't an excuse for someone to get murdered. It's also an innappropriate time to look down one's nose at a choice that had never had such ramifications before. Back to that whole hindsight thing.
