12 dead, 58 injured in Colorado at midnight showing of Dark Knight

Wow is right. He has no bills to pay. Free medical and legal services. He gets hot meals. Air conditioning. Exercise. A bed. Clean clothes twice a week. And if he wants, someone who will be intimate with him. Cable TV.

 

Seriously?

 

Think about it oh mighty one. Do you think he's getting tortured?

 

Drip, did you mean to use the blue font on that one?

 

So much crap to tool through.

 

I think people need to look at the treatment prisoners receive. I'm surprised that there are questions about the posts.

 

Wouldn't prison be a good option for laid-off journalists?

 

I guess so if you want to be in that type of lifestyle.

 

Well, he did use the blue font.

 

Folks, I get that there is some entertainment value in seeing Drip and Mark get slapped around. But it's just a never-ending cycle of kabuki theater. They troll and troll and troll and then when they're called on it, they say "What? How can you say I'm trolling? You just can't handle people who have the courage to voice unpopular opinions!" And then everyone shakes their head and moves on (after three pages of calling them on it) and the cycle continues.

It's ridiculous. You are rewarding them with the attention they desperately crave. Last night we had Mark arguing that child rape -- according to a "friend" -- really wasn't that big of a deal. Today we have Drip arguing that prison life is actually a pretty good gig, if you can get it. Next week, one of them will argue that elephants are racist, which is why racism is acceptable in some instances. Or that tbe Wilmington News Journal is actually a better paper than the New York Times, and he knows because he's won Pulitzers for both and made love to Maureen Dowd on deadline.

If you can't ignore them, or if you choose to engage them solely for entertainment purposes, please temper your outrage or your befuddlement that someone could be so obtuse. You are only stroking their troll boner.
