| I don't have anything against Muslim beliefs, but it is against just about everybody's beliefs to massacre innocents, so I say lex talionis and burn him anyway. | |||

| Honor the religion and bury him according to custom... because we are better than that. Burning the body or desecrating it in some other way might feel good for petty vengeance, but it provides a rallying point for those who hate us more than any headstone ever will. | |||

| Setting aside the content of the article itself (as there's been debate about that and also I haven't read it), it seems like an utterly tactless grab for attention by Rolling Stone. | |||

| You know, there was a time when it was a goal for people to say, "I'm going to work hard at what I do until I'm on the cover of Rolling Stone". It looks like it also now works for people who say, "Dang, I would kill to be on the cover of Rolling Stone". | |||

| I haven't read the article either, but I can't tell if I'm outraged or not.
I mean, on the surface, it seems terrible, but I heard another outlook mentioned, which was that their point could have been that evil doesn't always look evil. Basically, I'd have to read the article to see for sure. If the magazine's point was that he was a pretty boy, actually, LOOKED like a boy, IS a boy, essentially, and their point was to illustrate that fact without glorifying what he did for the sake of, well, glory...then...I don't think this bothers me too much. I mean, we live in a world of instant communication. Things get known to the public. I think at this point we'd have to look into changing as a society as a hole if we're going to say that publicity only makes people WANT to commit crimes because of the "popularity." but I guess that's kinda an entirely different rant? |

| Not that it's any surprise to anyone at this point, but prosecutors are seeking the death penalty. |
