The "Serious disappointment in the human race" thread.

I take back what I said to RVCA after watching that video. WHAT. THE. ****

There has to be more to that story or something. I cant see why anyone unprovokingly would be that cold to someones illness. That is mind blowing!! Not saying that its ok even if they were provoked, but just to do it out of sheer meaness is crazy. I bet there is more to that story than whats being told...jesus.

Yeah that's what I thought. Surely the girl's mother must have done SOMETHING to provoke these people before she died. Not saying that makes their actions right at all, but still.

I watched some more videos on it and apparently the resentment comes from her daughter not being invited to the dying girl's birthday. Also she did a public apology that seemed really half-hearted after the media picked the story up (honestly who even cares if she apologized anyways? It's beyond ****ed up what she said in the first place). And THEN she said she "didn't give a **** who's dying" after the apology.

I don't know... bizzare story.

Is this for real?

I mean, was she serious in telling him off there? because if so, I think that's ridiculous.

I think her main intent was to keep things from spiraling into a shit fest. It's safer to assume that something is going to be more offensive than not, because it's easier on everyone to try and prevent something rather than to clean it up after the fact, after people have taken things personally and earned themselves actual punishments.

I guess yeah, but I don't think that comment was personal. Seemed quite light hearted and it is called Music Banter you know? But some people would be offended by it I guess, people just need to hang loose more.
