Yes, I have to say I actually take offense to that..seeing as my two oldest kids spend a decent chunk of their teen years as "White Apex Teens" and didn't break into houses, rape, or assault anyone or do anything of the sort.
Satire: –noun 1. The use of irony, sarcasm, ridicule, or the like, in exposing, denouncing, or deriding vice, folly, etc. 2. A literary work in which human vice or folly is attacked through irony, derision, or wit.
My original post had no baiting towards race at all. Just reporting the breaking story. Why this has become a race issue is beyond me. I've learned long ago, there are good people and there are bad people. Both types come in all shapes, sizes and colors. It should not matter what the race of this worthless human was, just get rid of him and make the world safer for us all.
Unfortunately most crime threads on this forum become about race. I'm shocked nobody has suggested the criminal was bussed in yet
I knew it. Another white Apex teen. You can tell they are all up to no good just by looking at them. If we could find a way to get rid of them, we'd all be safer.
I, too, missed the satirical nature of your post when I first read it and I apologize for that. Last night, I sitting with my laptop and my DH was reading some of the posts with me. He immediately read your post as you meant it to be and was astonished that I had responded as I did. So, I'm really sorry about that...
Holly, I was actually referring more to JQ Public's post. Although have to admit that at first glance I didn't get the satire of it either. Looking back it is very obvious though. haha
I am still reeling from the fact that the TV news last night reported the rape of an "elderly woman" and then learn that she was 65. When did 65 become elderly?
65 has always been "elderly"--the start of Social Security (initially, anyway), Senior Discounts, etc. It's actually only recently that being in ones 60s has NOT been considered quite so "old" (especially since the Baby Boomers--who seem to define most social constructs in the US--started hitting 60!)
