I don't know what the point was of the photographer releasing those photos. "I want people to see who the REAL Boston bomber is". Uh, mkay. And? It's just a couple pictures of this guy again, with blood on his head. And by the way, this photographer didn't help his case when he released one of the pics of the guy pulling up his shirt. That's a hot pic too. Just can't get it right, can they?

And yes, he should've been reassigned for releasing those photos. Those were taken in an official capacity & he wasn't given permission to publicize them. It's his own fault that he got in trouble.

I'm talking about the right-wing clowns here. Their whining makes them look kinda stupid. Wah! Rolling Stone put the wrong picture of a criminal on their cover! Wah!

How delicate can you get?

See how that works?
For those who accept common sense into their daily lives, know full well that gun regulations will not prevent a mass assailant from acquiring the necessary firearms and ammunition to carry out the attack. Again, murder is illegal, as it stands. Nothing is more illegal than murder.

There is a distinct difference between those glorifying mass murderers, like yourself, and preventing murder through additional regulation. Existing statistics prove your line of thinking wrong, as it stands.

CVS and other stores are not going to sell the issue in their stores. I hope Rolling Stone Magazine has another revenue source to make up for missed monies for that issue. What a stupid idea for a cover!

It seems very odd to me as well. If anything, I would think they would be more likely to evoke sympathy for the kid than disdain 'cause you know, people are strange like that.

As for the actions by his employer - that's between him and them.

I could just as stupidly argue that anyone who buys a AR-15 is glorifying the actions of those who used them to kill innocents but that wouldn't be any more valid that your stating that I am "glorifying mass murder" by buying a magazine.


That is like saying that anyone who learns to pilot a plane is glorifying those who flew the planes into the Twin Towers.

Get over it.
