Somewhat of a rant

So unless you have lived under a rock for the past few days you know that a 4 year old girl was 'abducted' from her hotel in Portugal while her parents went out for dinner.....oh, there were 2 Two year olds left with the 4 year old as well.....Can somebody tell me what is wrong with people!!!!????? And why these 'parents' aren't sitting in a Portugeese jail with the 2 left over children in a loving enviroment (family, foster...) Apparently they were with in view of the door but not the other points of exit and she or somebody let her out. Loads of celebrities are offering lots and lots of money for her safe return. Last count 5.1 million pounds (British pounds) And I do pray that she is safe and that she comes out of this. But not back to her parents! When dinner is more important to you than the saftey of your children...I don't care if you are in a hotel and you have the only key. Haven't they ever heard of room service. And most nice resorts offer babysitting services. And now this just turned 4 year old girl could be going thru hell. And still no one is wondering why they left thier children unattended? And why are they allowed to walk the streets with thier other 2 children? People are giving them balloons and presents and flowers and they are smiling....It's nice that they show support but it all seems so wrong to me. She was 3 when she went missing because her parents went to dinner. I just don't get it. I do pray for her and her sibilings. And her parents so they are forgiven for leaving such young children alone.

Also, Brent told me of a news story that he heard on the radio yesterday morning, it didn't make the national news and I'm wondering why....A white couple was out and they were car jacked by 5 black men...The men raped the husband while the wife watched and dismembered various parts of his body and shot him 3 times...the wife got to live for 3 days and I can only imagine what she went thru before they cut off her breasts and died. As far as I know the 5 men are in custody and we don't know if they had children but they were someone's kids too, they had a family. Now.....why didn't this get pasted all over the papers this was just a complete and total act of evil, I doubt that it was a hate crime it was just thoughtless and evil to see what they could do and get away with. 2 People lost thier lives and one of them had to witness it. Competely helpless. Why didn't this appear on Fox News or CNN and get as much coverage as the comment that Don Imus (who was a SHOCK JOCK by the way) made???? They (the team) were effected by that for how long.....and now a family is dead because of hate and evil. It's amazing of what the media considers news worthy isn't it? Why aren't we being warned about these men?? There is all kinds of hate and evil in this world and frankly it scares me everyday that I live. When it's more important to tell the world about a comment made by a SHOCK JOCK towards a mostly black women's basketball team as a joke, yes it was a slur but have you listened to rap lately??? And the 'upset' that one word caused them and for a SHOCK JOCK to lose his job because he was just doing his job than to tell the world about a couple that was brutally murdered by a group of men.... there is something seriously wrong... I pray for that couple and the horrible death they faced. And just pray for the world to wake up and realize what we are doing to eachother.
