The protestors are no better than vigilantes. Stop harassing the parents.
Walk a mile in their shoes.
Is all big talk about turning in your kid for a capital offense to face LWOP or DP, but it is by people who have never faced this situation.
I couldn't do it. I would help my child avoid capture until my last breath - not because I wouldn't be horrified and heartbroken, but because I could not live with my child in a cage being beaten and raped for the rest of his life or in a coffin compliments of the state.
Just the truth.
If the parents helped him, it is completely understandable.
Thank you for your honesty in this post.
We can all THINK what we'd do in these circumstances but, the truth be told, we can never, ever know
for sure until we're staring our loved ones in the face and have to make that heart versus head decision. Until that moment, it's just lip service.
I agree about the protestors outside the Laundrie house:
Is it not rank hypocrisy to criticise and accuse BL of being a bully and an abuser of GP, when they're outside the Laundrie house hurling abuse and bullying them!?
"Pot, kettle" springs to mind.
Surely, we can't be selective in our condemnation of violence and bullying? It can't be accepted that GP slapped BL but not accepted if BL slapped her back.
It can't be OK for JP to mock BL by calling him Brianna but then it not be OK for BL to mock GP by saying she was working on her, "little blog".
If you're against bullying, violence, cruelty and abuse, then there shouldn't be any exceptions, excuses or double standards. You have to be against it
all otherwise what's the point!?
