Keeping Natalee in the Spotlight

What business is it of yours, Mrs Kravits? I'm sick of the coverage and don't want to see her on TV any more. If you're sensibilities are so fragile that you can't deal with that, maybe you should avoid this board in it's entirety and sit around wringing your delicate hands all day.

I'm sick of the coverage and don't want to see her on TV any more.

And if it was your daughter? But, as you can't seem to relate to the milk of human kindness, you probably aren't married with kids. If you are, and can't relate to a mother's distress, then you must have a saint for a mate. Why don't YOU avoid this board in it's entirety, as the subject matter bothers you so much.

Plus, in case you haven't noticed, the TV coverage has been all hurricane all the time, with a short time out for the Roberts' Supreme Court hearings. There has been no Natalie of late, so I'm not sure why you are so sick of the coverage which has been virtually absent. I know, you were so sick of the coverage that you sought out this thread just to tell everyone how sick of the subject you are. You might consider a better use of your time.

You watch too much TV. Put down the bon bons and go jogging. If you're so sick of the Natalee story why did you click on this thread? Me thinks thou protest too much.

Knock it off and stay off this thread.

If it was my daughter I would be grief-stricken, but then I wouldn't be a media whore and trying to extend my 15 HOURS of fame.

Your "milk of human kindness" is a load of human crap. I can relate to a mother's distress but there are a lot of mothers and a lot of distress, where is your "milk of human kindness" for THEM?

I won't be avoiding the board because, thankfully, it is only some high-strung, emotionally overwrought cranks whose feeeeeeeeeeeeeelings make them worthy of a quivering lip award from Slick who perpetuate this media-driven sensationalism.

Yes, it has been back on. That freak of nature Greta was back at it - that's how I knew the hurricane story was dying down.

You might consider some medication to get you through this.

[AggieCPA]

I barely watch TV at all, Mrs. Kravits (or is it Abner?), I generally have FoxNews on in the background. It sounds like you and the rest of the girls should just go have yourselves a good cry. Methinks thou are an idiot.

[William Terrell]

Methinks thou are an idiot.

Methinks thou art an idiot.

Methinks the longevity of this issue revolves around some very questionable and seedy acts and nonacts of the Arubian officials in the pursuit of this case. Evil can be done in the shadows, but is exposed by the light. The only light we have available in a Dutch possession is the media.

If you don't like it, don't read about it or watch it. That is, unless you have some material theory or evidence that the Natalee Holloway disappearance is a fraud, or otherwise not worthy of investigation.

[AggieCPA]

No doubt there is bad behavior by the Arubans, but the ONLY reason she is still in the media is because there are people, apparently like some here, who just can't get enough of the salacious content: "She was gang-raped? Oooooooooh tell me more, more, more, Greta."

I DON'T watch it, I think it is tabloid trash. Unfortunately, Fox News seems like the All Natalie, All the time network and I'm sick of it.

For all you bleeding hearts who think you're "accomplishing" something by watching this sensationalism, I pity that your life is so shallow you have to wallow in another's tragedy for entertainment.

[bonfire]

For some reason I'll bet you know every detail of this story.

[William Terrell]

"She was gang-raped? Oooooooooh tell me more, more, more, Greta."

Actually, the reason I want to see more exposure is that I think she was abducted by those who feed and run a sex slave operation. I don't think she was murdered; she certainly could have been raped, though.

If she were murdered, I'd like to see those involved brought to justice, but, if she were abducted, I'd like to see that exposed even more.

Make no mistake, in either case, the only way we will see justice done is by keeping the media spotlight shinning on Aruba and the cockroaches there occupying, even if that feeds the soap opera type minds you seem to loathe.

[AggieCPA]

For some (obvious) reason, I'll bet you don't have a clue; not a one.

[onyx]

Aren't you a beaut?

WHAT is your problem?

[AggieCPA]

"Actually, the reason I want to see more exposure is that I think she was abducted by those who feed and run a sex slave operation. I don't think she was murdered; she certainly could have been raped, though."

And I think the cheese has slipped off your cracker.

It sickens me to see that people are so media-driven that they get all atwitter over ONE case when there are so many others that might benefit from some exposure. Natalee's mom has had her 15 minutes, it's time to move on and just update us when something actually HAPPENS.

[onyx]

You're GOOD. A swarm has landed.

[KenmcG414]

Natalee's family should call Tony Soprano.

[johnb838]

I won't be avoiding the board because

Keep up the nasty talk and you'll be avoiding the board whether you like it or not.

[johnb838]

I think she was abducted by those who feed and run a sex slave operation.

That story about "Scarface" was quite interesting wasn't it.

[William Terrell]

I hadn't considered scarface, but I could add it to the rest of my reasoning.

[AggieCPA]

Go home and cry to your mommie. "Mommie, mommie, I don't like what they're saying, make them stop, mommie make them stop!"
