Ugh. I didn't even look at the link. Sorry. I just have to agree with your title for this thread. I wish that were possible.

That's awful:(

Interesting, isn't it, that the more typical male reaction would be furious vengeance (or at least the desire for it, either to execute it or see it done), whereas the more typical female reaction would be to along the lines you said, Boon?

(Note: I said 'more typical', which is I think accurate, but I recognize it's a stereotype)

Which only serves to further my opinion that I tend to have decidedly male responses - I'd prefer to take a hatchet to some of these monsters and deface them.

Or sometimes you're just tired of humanity and can't muster the passion required for bloody, righteous retribution.

I think alot of parents would have problems with you if you took their children and hid away.

Can I get you to hide with mine for about three hours on Friday night?

So not right and so funny.... [Big Grin]

I think I often seek out the funny to avoid anger and despair. Maybe Dan's the same way.

I'm having a chuckle at that Dan_raven, but only in a tiny compartmentalized part of my brain. The rest see's it the way you do TMedina.

I read a related article on this earlier and agree wholeheartedly with the title.

If I didn't hate humanity at large right now, I'd think it was funny. I've made worse jokes than that.

But funny or not, I stand by my comment. [Big Grin]

It's official - they've identified the little girl and arrested the mother and stepfather.
