Katy Perry doesn’t deserve that kid. He was amazing.

I’m glad she responded to this. She reminded me of (white) moms everywhere - well meaning but kiiiiinda missing the point. I hope she takes criticism and learns from it, which it seems like she’s trying to do, however misguided it might be.

I, too, was poor when I was 6 (in the 90's so... no internet). Everyone had Dorothy shoes (from the wizard of oz) for halloween and my mom had to improvise mine by gluing red glitter onto my worn-down Walmart shoes. But the thing is, I don’t remember any of that shit. Because I was six. Whoever is telling this kid…

Holy god, he was gorgeous.

Hahaha ok buddy. Congrats on your super successful troll today, btw.

You and I both know I’m not watching an hour-long interview. Give me the minute he says that quote and I’ll watch it. For now, here’s an actual quote he did say about responsible gun ownership (with link)“

I think it’s all pimply little 13 (or 30, who knows) year old boys in their parents’ basements. They get a kick out of riling up liberal commenters. As if the fact that we’re living in actual hell right now in this country is some kind of joke. Lord.

Also this commenter has been on the site for a. day. certified troll.

Dude. He didn’t say this. I know you’re trolling but it’s really irresponsible to post a fake quote like this as it just turns more people against these kids. I might believe you if you were able to provide a link, but you haven’t. And I haven’t found any indication of this.

He didn’t say it. “She led a task force” is full of it. Can’t find any mention of it on youtube or anywhere online. Can you imagine if he had said this, how right wing news sites would react? This person is trolling everyone.

Here’s my opinion as a real, live journalist - despite the fact that no one ever asked for it. Sry guys - Twitter sucks. As journalists we have always had these codes of ethics and journalism-specific ethics that we’ve been told to follow. Having things like twitter throws us off. Sure, it’s been around for a long…

I’m fairly sure that if a lawyer had tweeted that, he would have known it’s “pleaded,” not, “pled.”

Right?? I was pretty pissed off. The assistant prosecutor who filed it came up and apologised to me in person. I was a little standoffish... haha

ah, that laugh she does. So many of us women know that laugh. That “I’m so uncomfortable but I don’t want to upset the room so I’m going to put this to the side and deal with it later” laugh.

ok, I’m a legal journo, not a lawyer. So take what I say with a grain of salt

The hoops that men - not even those who are accused of rape, but just those who want to defend rapists - jump through, amazes me.

Why is the world still trying to make Megyn Kelly happen? It’s never gonna happen!

goddamn. this gave me chills

Yes, queens!! I lived in Peru for a little and the sexism was extremely prevalent. I remember men walking down the streets of Lima, holding their girlfriends by their butts. I remember getting harassed on the street by men who would say gross, sexual shit to me. Peru has a major problem with machismo and it’s…

Thank you so much. <3
