getting facts straight

Quote From: wilders

LaToyia Figueroa, a 24-year-old pregnant woman from South Philadelphia, has been missing since July. She is Black.  

The murderer has been caught, Her mother has proof of a job well done by the police.  

I support all mothers who have the guts to come forward and ask for help. regardless of colour.  

   

MURDER IS NOT A COLOR THING.  

Not only does netje2205 have a problem with getting facts straight, but totally misses the point of this entire situation.  This is not about comparing crime rates of various countries and boycotting them based on the number of murders per 100,000 people.  This is about how this particular case has been handled.  As for LaToyia Figueroa.....her case was solved weeks ago and contrary to netje2205's statements, her case was aired hourly on all three major news networks until her case was solved.  Her family was very active in keeping her story on the air and that is admirable. That is also what Beth Hollaway Twitty is doing and I see nothing wrong with that.  Netje2205 should pay more attention to the news and have all the facts straight before posting because now I totally question all of the other "so-called facts" in that posting.

You are really good at giving us statistics, but hey WHAT IS YOUR POINT?  That because there were only 2 murders in Aruba that they shouldn't be persued?  Get real.  No one should get away with murder and the attitude of these young men is disgusting.  This wasn't the first girl they were with.  Obviously they have been pulling this little stunt for some time.   I know that every girl in this country has probably been in Natalee's shoes at least once in their lives.  And luckily for most of us, we get to walk away from it, and learn from our mistakes.  My heart goes out to Natalee's family because she was the unlucky one.  The lesson we girls can all learn is to stick together and watch out for one another.  Never leave with a stranger and never let your friends do it either.

I fully support Beth Holloways mission to force the Aruban officials to do the job that they were hired to do and punish these boys for the crimes that they have commited. She deserves knowledge AND vengeance for what happened to her daughter durring a time that should have been fun and memorable. How sad that we fellow Americans have to worry when taking a vacation that certain other countries in this world have so little respect and concern for what happens to us while we are there. And no, I will NOT be taking a vacation to Aruba. They have proven themselves to be more interested in helping their wealthy comrades out of a jam than in finding justice for a young girl who found herself at the will of 3 young men will no conscience.
