Robbery is not, and should not be punishable by death. You and your gun carrying buddies should not feel entitled to be the hand of justice. *This* is why the rest of us don’t want all you mother fuckers carrying guns everywhere. Just because someone does something shitty, doesn’t mean they should get shot up by 10…

It’s not silly. His point isn’t about comparing the situations, it’s about the mindset of the media. In Missouri journalists were angry about being denied access because they wanted to report on it. But if you’re gonna complain about that under the guise of, as a journalist it’s my responsibility to cover these…

Surely you’re aware that “not being nice enough” is not the problem with Greg Hardy…

...And also pretty conclusively shows that she has not actually been in solitary for 20 years.

After reading more news articles about the actual crime, I’m completely unmoved for a number of reasons.

1. Whatever suffering Morales/China Blast undergoes in solitary isn’t due to her being trans, it’s her being convicted of an absolutely heinous crime than thousands of other people, trans or cis, also go through.
2.…

Treatment of Trans individuals in Prison is a giant and serious problem.

In most of these cases, the prisoners in SHU are there for behavioral problems. they have to be taken out in shackles or a Correctional Officer may not go home to see his/her family that night. Maybe it’s time for a third classification for trans - I don’t know. But she’s there because she was convicted of a crime.…

Do you think it would be just if Blast were raped and stuffed in a suitcase? Because by this logic anything short of that could be considered justified. Not the logic I used nor am I a harcore retributionist I was comparing her current situation to that of her victim’s. If I was keen on the whole “eye-for-an-eye”…

Agreed. She can rot.

It’s bizarre to compare not reporting a fellow student for a school driving offense to covering up the rape and murder of a child and enabling the rapes and murders of more children.

Since this interview was conducted, Synthia China Blast has been transferred to Mid-State Correctional Facility, a men’s facility near Utica. She is now on a long-term IPC wing, and is able to spend the vast majority of each day out of her cell and around other prisoners. Blast finally has access to programming and…

It’s not lost on me how U used that pic with a black child.

Yea this article is trash about trash for trash

Amazing to watch tools in the media being used by convicts. So fucking lost in there own nonsense issues they lose complete sight of the whole picture. Shameful article but not shocking this is gawker after all.

From the NY Times, August 30, 1993:

Articles like this remind me why I don’t take liberal feminism seriously anymore.

“ It’s funny because I am living proof that I became “disposable.” “ Awww aren’t you sweet, I wondered how that little girl U and the members of your gang brutalized, raped, killed and burned to the point where she was unrecognizable feel about this. Please STFU piece of garbage. I also quite love the part where she…

She describes herself as being defined as “disposable” and “garbage”.....meanwhile she actually disposed of a dead teenager like garbage...

There is an intelligent discussion to be had from the story with context and am bothered by the erasure of Ebony Williams. This is so much more complex than what is being presented.

How ass-backwards do you have to be as a feminists to promote a child rapist and murderer on your site Jezebel?
