'Fear Factor' contestants told by NBC to shut up about canceled episode they starred in

What is wrong with us????

Let's not mention the fact that this horrific stunt was even offered up as a task, in the first place......

But the fact that these two girls saw nothing wrong with what they did and were not ASHAMED in the least, speaks volumes about this perverted culture we live in!!

They we DISAPPOINTED that it would not be aired???

Disappointed????

Our senses have been numbed to such a degree that I'm not sure that a compass even exists anymore.

I fear for the world my small children will have to grow up in.

A compass entails that you have a strict, barely changing direction in which to follow. For instance, magnetic north is generally in the same place (it does move)

But morals are not concrete, and they move based on the moment, individual, and situation you find yourself in. A good man can be bad, and a bad man can be good.

Every individual should be allowed to follow their own moral compass. If you aren't physically hurting anyone, or stealing from them, then you should be free to follow your own whims.

I blame it on the Hollyweird culture that exists like it does today. People will do just about anything to get their 15 minutes of fame. Look how popular Jersey Shore is.

That's ridiculous!

It's that kind of thinking that has led two young women to drink donkey sperm for money.

That kind of thinking that allows a young mother to go party while her baby has been missing for 30 days.


People are always hurt....directly or indirectly by what we do! No one is an island.

Answer me this? Do you like people lying to you??

50,000 dollars? I'll drink it.

Some people moral compass says not to drink alcohol. Should we all follow that? Maybe we should outlaw more then two hours of television a week.

You can't regulate these things, and there is no moral compass. Its an individual choice.

Welcome to these United States. We are supposed to be a free country, and freedom means you are free to do stupid things, if you aren't hurting anyone.

No, this has absolutely NOTHING to do with Casey Anthony.

Did you read my post? I said "If you aren't hurting anyone"

I think putting duct tape over your daughters mouth and driving with her in your trunk until she is dead counts as hurting people.

If a grown man or woman wants to drink donkey sperm for money, its none of yours, mine, or anyone elses damned business.

Don't like it, don't do it.

Maybe we should outlaw alcohol, or two hours of TV per day? Thats moral to some people.

I don't like people lying to me, but I don't expect them to go to jail if they do.

Lots of people think their lives are deserving of a reality show. The truth is they are not that interesting.

If you're dumb enough to sign up for one of these stunts...I have no sympathy.
