Jonbenet's Alleged Murderer caught!

This is an extremely sad story. Some people in this world just make me wish they could torture the people who commit crimes like these. So sick and messed up.

On another similiar note, did you happen to see that the little girl who was found dead in a Romulus field burk? After weeks they finally knew it was indeed her, another sad and tragic story.

I feel bad for ALL parents of the hundreds or thousands of other kids who are missing REGARDLESS of whether they are rich white blond-haired blue-eyed beauty pageant winners.





There. I just one-upped your compassion level for missing kids. Now, do I feel righteous! I don't even have contempt for the Ramseys just because they're upper-class! :spit:


It doesn't matter if the parents have a penny to their names or if they're Bill Gates. Losing a kid is the worst nightmare of ANY parent.


An excellent and well-taken point that could have been better expressed in a more mature fashion.

Caught or not - sexualizing children with "child beauty pageants" is wrong on every level imagniable. Children are at risk as it is from pediphiles and other weirdos without the added attention and "hyper-sexualization" these pageants bring.

regardless, I am disguseted by child beauty pageants. They should be as illegal as cock fighting and dog fighting.

+1 :)
 
I saw a documentary on a young girl who was doing beauty pagents. Her mom was a witch, yelling at her constantly while she practiced on a runway they had built in their garage. The parents were all freaks. They even have beauty pagents for babies, little babies who can't walk or talk being paraded around with makeup on. The titles of the crowns are "beauty princess" and then there's "super beauty princess" and maybe "most excellent super beauty princess" with these impossibly tall crowns. I can't imagine being subjected to that as a kid...and not being able to go out and play for fear I might fall and scrape my knee or worse, get a scratch on my face!
