The vast ignorance of this country is astounding and disturbing. It's almost too much to take. Yes, Rolling Stone put a handsome photograph of one of the Boston bombers on its cover, but it was not to glamorize the asshole, but instead to ask, how this turd went from that, to a murderer. Listening to people bitch about this cover and claim it puts this asshole in a good light is ignorant bullshit. And to illustrate the idiocy of the people bemoaning this, I started going through book covers on our shelves regarding real crime topics. Do these same people realize how many of these books have photographs of the criminals on the covers that are flattering in a sort of way, but still reveal these people to be depraved killers?Hell, I have one called Cat and Mouse where the serial murderers high school or early college photo is on the cover and this rotten bastard one time forced a light bulb up a victim's genitalia. So I guess that book was to glamorize that then. Ugh....
