excuuuuse me???
So, I'm sitting on the couch last night playing a STUD tournament, minding my own business, CNN is on the TV and Larry King comes on. I hear in the intro something about John Mark Karr, so I was thinking they were going to have someone on the show talking about the effects of child abuse, or maybe about how the laws in this country need to be stiffened up for child sex offenders, or maybe about what a piece of slime this John Mark Karr is.

So, I go about my business playing my poker when all of a sudden I look up and the show isn't about advocating for victims of child molestors, IT'S JOHN FUCKING MARK KARR AS A GUEST ON HIS SHOW!! Whaaaat? Excuuuuuse me? When did people in this country start to find it appropriate to let SCHOOL TEACHERS accused of CHILD PORNOGRAPHY have their 15 minutes of fame??

Ya, I know the charges were dropped, in California (because the COPS LOST THE COMPUTER W THE PORN ON IT!!). Let's not forget this sicko has child porn and sex crime charges in about 4 other states AND he thought it would get him just enough attention to make it sound like he DID kill Jon Bennet on TV AND lets not forget why he was a suspect in the first place.. mkay??

So, all of this and I'm trying to play poker!! The NERVE! I had to stop playing and send this pathetic excuse of a reporter an email:

"I am appalled that you INVITED this excuse of a man onto your show. You just washed any speck of journalistic integrity you may have had, right down the drain.

The child endangerment and child sex crimes laws in this country are enough of a joke, why don't you do a show about that?? In fact, I'll go so far as to say, you and your "team" deciding to invite this excuse of a man on your show is encouraging child molestors everywhere.

Way to go Larry King and CNN. I hope you're proud of yourselves."

I know it's not that good, but it was all I could come up with, without explatives, in my fit of anger. Funny thing is, when the show was on last night and I went to CNN.com this story was on the front page of both the main page AND the Larry King section... look what's there now. You can't even find his most recent story on his header page, you have to click the transcripts to see it. I have a feeling I wasn't the only pissed off person.

Really tho, have some respect for the victims of these sickos, would ya?? AAAAAHHH!!! Now I'm mad all over again.

    Great post! I get tired of the sensationalism of our media on people like Karr. Sure, they may not have enough to charge him but given what we do know about him? He's not someone who should be given any attention, except from law enforcement watching him.

    Thanks for stopping by my blog earlier, and yours will grow. Two years ago when I started mine I didn't think anyone was reading it until I added a site meter. Then I was like, "hello people, comment I know you are reading this" (lol)

    It seems to me that with a full name of "John Fucking Mark Karr," that perhaps he'll run into difficulty as soon as he fills out the job app where it has that little line for "middle name."

    We can only hope...
