the town that should be utterly ashamed at itself, its people and the lack of morals that has been passed on to yet another generation.
I want to say so very much on how this little town has ruined itself with the way it merely turns its head in the face of illegal activities all for the sake of holding on to a little pigskin glory. I want so much to express my disgust over how authority figures made sure that these children wanted for nothing (legal or not) and felt comfortable running rough-shot over the rights of others (oh look, little politicians in the making).
It is beyond disgusting that so many saw, witnessed what happened to that 16 year old girl...yet NONE stepped forward at any point in time during the night to put a stop to it. NONE. An entire generation belonging to an entire town...numbed and dumbed...unwilling to stand up and do the right thing.
Shame on you Steubenville. YOU have ruined YOUR children. Not just the two found guilty in a court of law. All of them.
Shame on the MSM. YOU have laid sympathy with CONVICTED rapists (whose social media activities and own friends testimony convicted them) because they are young "promising" football players. YOU have victimized the victim all over again in so many ways.
Shame on our Society as a whole. I've seen some incredibly disturbing posts all over the internet today. Blame being laid on the victim for drinking too much. Sympathy for the poor young rapists that their lives are now ruined by the conviction. So much more that makes me wish for days without instant news, instant access and instant ability to post the most idiotic thing a person can post for the entire world to see.
Stop the Planet...I want off.

I noticed that one of the boys never apologized to the victim, just to her "family" and the community. Nothing about being remorseful for raping her at all.
It's a sad sad world we live in.
