Been a Bad Week in T-ville

[Bionca]

Sorry - hit the post button to soon.

The post above was taken from the Huffington Post, and has been making the rounds to various blogs. The hosts made a non-apology - "sorry you overly sensitive people didn't get our joke" and "We like kids and would never actually want anyone to hurt them" ... except when they advocated hurting them. Also, the ever popular "Yer trying to censor my free speech - and being mean too!"

I'm all about free speech - but even "joking" about abusing children crosses a line. Joking a bout abusing a group of children that are more likely to commit suicide, be thrown out of their family homes, and endure peer harassment is so far over the line.

the following is a list of their sponsors - I'm sure you know what to do:
