Horrible depending on your point of view
Authored by: Anonymous on Saturday, January 19 2013 @ 10:49 AM EST

Without any context many negative assumptions can be made about:

    Likes Hating when black people say things you can't understand
To assume something more positive, would the same people also:
    Likes Hating when someone says things you can't understand
and
    Likes black people
Without context, the horrible thing - in my humble opinion - are all the assumptions drawn and then treated as though established fact.

But of course, I shouldn't be assuming media simply drew assumptions.... or tailored the information provided so they could produce a sensational story.

I should give them - the journalists who looked into the situation - the benefit of doubt that they actually interviewed the people to see what their full thoughts on the matter are so the journalists could be absolutely sure.

It is hard for me to imagine anything good about people "liking raping". In fact I can't think of a single thing. However, given the situation I once read about where "someone liking something" was done without their permission let alone their knowledge - I'm willing to give those individuals the benefit of doubt that someone's software somewhere went really bad.
