Oh, Those Dangerous MySpaces!

Wednesday, January 16th, 2008

The bigwigs at MySpace have finally decided to cave into the pressure being put on them by idiot parents and try to ‘protect’ its younger users from the threats that sicko pedophiles pose on the website.

 That’s all well and good, but some of the ideas they have, and are going to put into place, really won’t work.  They just aren’t practical.

Although this is my opinion, I’ve been discovering in my travels around the interwebs that this opinion is shared with bloggers from all corners of the globe.   Here’s the gist of what they want to do: 

1.) Set all profiles of 15-and-under users to private, and prevent those profiles from getting any sort of communication from any adult they do now know.

2.) Default all 16 and 17-year-old users’ profiles to private, which they can change to public if they so wish.

3.) Deny any registered sex offenders access to the site.

 While all of those are pretty good ideas, how does MySpace propose to enforce them?  Any 13-year-old can go on there and create a profile with the britdate set to 1982.  It’s not difficult.

Also, suppose Joe Smith the Molester wants a profile on MySpace but he’s a registered sex offender.  How does he get around that?  Easily, by signing up as Bobby Jones, the nice guy from Detroit. 

MySpace should be thanked for the effort, but politely told that none of this is going to work.

 What would work, on the other hand, is better parenting.  I’m so sick of hearing parents declare to the media that their child was raped or put in danger because of MySpace or some other internet bases social network.   I ask you this, parents: Where were you while your child was chatting it up with Chester the Molester online?    Why are you not monitoring your minor’s internet activity, when you hear every day about a child who falls prey to some online predator?  WHy are you not protecting your child?

 It’s sad to say, but I truly believe that a lot of these “parents” are hoping their child will get injured due to a MySpace rendezvous so that they can try to sue.

’nuff said.

Giuliani is such a coward he hangs up on this guy and rants instead of actually debating him.

Be Careful What You Ask For

I know I haven’t updated in awhile. I’ll have some more stuff pretty soon (Michael Vick), but here’s a nice little story to hold you over until then.

Police: Boss Kills Coworkers Who Asked For Raise

EAST POINT, Georgia (AP) — The owner of a car dealership has been accused of killing two employees because they kept asking for pay raises.

Rolandas Milinavicius has been charged with two counts of murder in the shooting deaths of Inga Contreras, 25, and Martynas Simokaitis, 28.

All three are from the eastern European nation of Lithuania but had been living in Atlanta, Georgia, authorities said.

Milinavicius, who was having financial problems, told police he shot the two Thursday after they kept asking for more pay, said police in East Point, which is just outside Atlanta.

“He told us that he was under a lot of stress,” East Point police Capt. Russell Popham said. “Unfortunately, he decided to take his anger out with violence.”

Milinavicius, who had been living in Alpharetta, a suburb north of Atlanta, started RM Auto International two years ago, hoping to meet the demand for American cars in Lithuania. He began shipping cars and later hired the two victims as his only employees.

Milinavicius, 38, turned himself in two days after the shootings and confessed to the killings, Popham said.

“As I understand, the employees were not really happy about the pay, and they had questioned him about it over the course of time,” Popham said. “That morning he said he just snapped.”

Contreras and Simokaitis were cremated and an informal memorial service was held at Simokaitis’ cousin’s apartment over the weekend. The remains were to be flown to Lithuania on Tuesday.

“It doesn’t make any sense,” the cousin, Jaunius Simokaitis, of Fayetteville, said Monday. “If he was having money problems, these two would have been the ones to help him get out of debt. They would have helped him make that money.”

Pro Wrestler Snaps

Tuesday, June 26th, 2007

Although nothing official has been released yet, authorities are saying that Chris Benoit killed his wife and kid over the weekend, and then himself on Monday.

And he seemed like one of the normal ones.

Benoit’s Death Part Of A Double Murder-Suicide

According to lead investigator Lt. Tommy Pope, of the Fayette County Sheriff’s Department, in Fayetteville, Ga., the deaths of WWE Superstar Chris Benoit, wife Nancy and son Daniel were the result of a double murder-suicide, WWE.com has learned.

Benoit failed to appear both at Saturday’s live event in Beaumont, Tx., and WWE’s Vengeance: Night of Champions in Houston Sunday night, after informing WWE of a family emergency. Several curious text messages sent by Benoit early Sunday morning prompted concerned friends to alert Richard Hering, VP of Government Relations for WWE, Inc. Hering, in turn, spoke with Fayette County sheriffs Monday, and requested that they respond to the Benoit residence to check on him and his family.

Authorities representing the Sheriff’s Department initially had a difficult time entering Benoit’s new Fayetteville home Monday afternoon, which had been guarded by two large German Shepherds roaming freely around the property. Once authorities entered the residence, they quickly located the bodies of Benoit, Nancy and Daniel. WWE was notified of the discovery at approximately 4 p.m.

At 10 p.m. Monday night, Lt. Pope held a press conference in conjunction with Scott Ballard, the district attorney for Fayette County. The press conference officially ruled authorities’ findings as a double murder-suicide from within the home.

WAGA, a FOX-owned and operated television station in Atlanta, reported that investigators believe Benoit killed his wife and 7-year-old son over the weekend, then himself on Monday.

The three bodies have been received by the Georgia Bureau of Investigation’s crime lab, in Decatur, Ga., where autopsies will be performed Tuesday morning. Toxicology reports will not become available for at least two weeks.

WWE.com has further information relating to both the investigation and the cause of death, but the Fayette County Sheriff’s Department has requested that WWE.com not release any additional details at this time.
