Gabby Petito

FOX News is going to have to find another story… in a few months. Now that the body of Gabby looks to have been found. First they’ll have to cover the dramatic (if obvious) arrest of Brian Laundrie. Then after the trial is delayed several times, they’ll discover Wyoming is a death penalty state. Then they’ll have endless debate about the value of the death penalty.

Then none of that will matter because the prosecutor will only be going for second degree murder. Okay, so in reality with a trial that won’t start until February of 2023, it will go on for 9 months. Then you have the endless appeals. So the murder of Gabby Petito will provide grist for FOX for at least 5 years.

A couple of days ago in the comment section on FOX I pointed out that cases like this drive black people crazy. 10 black girls died the same day as Gabby, but what do they get? Nothing. Take a cute little blond gal from suburbia that gets murdered and its the crime of the century.

Then another thought hit me. In the old days young women didn’t go drinking and fornicating across the country with a man who wasn’t her husband. They just didn’t do that. I’m not sure when the “old days” were, but it was sometime prior to 1970. I’m not sure when morals took a holiday, and fuddy duddyism fell out of vogue. It might have been around 1960.

Its my right to do stupid things!” That’s great, but be prepared to pay the price. Stupidity ain’t free. Its kind of like every fall when a coed passes out drunk in a frat house and finds out sometime the next day that a guy had intercourse with her. Bad things gonna happen. Good luck putting the milk back in the bottle.
