Casey Anthony found not guilty

Freaking signed. From day one this has just been a shock story designed to grasp our attention and keep people paying attention to news stations and buying newspapers. IMO it didn't deserve national attention.
Agree 100% it didnt deserve national attention... But it got national attention whether we wanted it or not. Now I think the fact that this murderer walks is also worthy of national attention.
 
I don't see how the economy trivializes a woman killing her child and getting away with it.

I don't mean to trivialize, but in the grand scheme of things a woman killing her child and being found not guilty, while incredibly tragic, unjust, and horrible, simply does not matter. It in no way affects anyone else besides Mrs. Anthony.

I don't understand why someone can't be "concerned" with both? :confused:

They can, but the amount of attention this case was getting both on national and local news stations was astounding. Again I don't mean to trivialize, but there are much more important things going on right now than this murder case.

Agree 100% it didnt deserve national attention... But it got national attention whether we wanted it or not. Now I think the fact that this murderer walks is also worthy of national attention.

Unfortunately, she's not a murderer as she was found not guilty... but I do agree with your point :hmm:
