<<"a history of one-night stands.">>
This kind of thing pisses me off to NO END! Assuming its true one has to ask some questions.

1) Does it really matter?
2) Does it mean she deserved to die?
3) Where does the his spokeswoman get off with that kind of BULLSH!T remark?
4) Where does the press get off reporting that kind of bullsh!t? The very fact that it gets printed lends credence to the remark and they know it!

The bottom line is this.....that line of logic is flawed. Using it makes the presumption that any gal who has a one nighter deserves death! Well.....gee lets think about that. There wouldn't be too many women left if that were the outcome every time now would there. Furthermore if men were judged the same way there would be none of us left. It goes back to the old school of thinking that I have heard so many rednecks say when a girl who enters a pub or bar in a miniskirt gets raped. Often you will hear men of an older generation say "well she was kinda asking for it." That just burns my @$$! I don't care if a woman has sex like a junkyard dog and goes bar hopping in the nude. She doesn't deserve to be raped or to die. And what about the family? Just as always the press decides to accommodate the informer and release this crap after an innocent girl is dead. I remember losing a friend who died in a motorcycle accident. He had been drinking and yes he probably had too much. It was a case where he went off the road at 2am. Nobody was with him and it didn't involve any other vehicles. Hell they didn't even find him until the next day. So what does the newspaper do? In the headlines they say "Intoxicated man dies in motorcycle accident." The immediate thought by people is "oh well then its ok." NO IT'S NOT! Did he make a mistake - yes. Did his family need to see that in the paper - NFW!! It was wrong and we as a country shouldn't tolerate this type of BS from our rag journalists. His intoxication just as her one night stands don't justify or lessen the loss. But the self appointed judgers judge! To that I say F.Y!
