so youre saying that if someone had published that type of photo of you, youd just 'move on' would you? Just becasue she s 'kid'? think about it, shes insulted them publicly, now its their right of reply to defend themselves publicly.
I feel sorry for the 17 year old kid who's been arrested overnight for attempted murder for stabbing a 66 year old pensioner who was asleep at home.
Afterall he's only a kid.
I know there ius a vast difference between attempted murder adn publishing nude photos but this 'moral defense' because of her 'youth' of this girl is starting to annoy me.
Where is the line drawn before someone can stop using the 'she's only 17' line as an excuse for anti-social/illegal behaviour?
Or is there nothing that a 17 tear old cannot be excused for doing?
This is no innocent 'Bambi'
From everything I've read/heard/seen she displays more characteristics of a predatory stalker than an innocent teenager.
No-one is excusing her MM. I certainly aren't. She needs to be accountable for her actions for sure. Do you think it's fair that internet forum's are starting threads labelling a 17 yr old child a bike? Others have called her a sl*t, a whore, a stalker, a psychopath. Other ppl on the internet (not here) are calling on her to kill herself..... I reckon this is the path she is heading.
She is an angry deluded immature young woman. If I was Rooey (and the others involved) I would be ropeable also at what has happened. Just not sure anything is to be gained by sueing her. It wreaks of exactly the sort of vindictiveness that started this whole sorry saga. Slap an intervention order on her and if she continues well she commits a criminal offence and will be held to account in the Childrens' court. THen as part of the court order make her seek counselling.
the sad thing is she has more going for her than most 17yr olds. By all accounts she is very intelligent (despite not displaying it lately) and very attractive.
Moods, how do you treat someone who has shown zero regard to the law?
Not little/scant/some, but zero.
Who taunts, through her twitter/facebook pages that she is proud of what she's done.
Who eggs on others to send her more stuff along similar lines to post.
She is swept up in her own self-importance fuelled on by a rapacious media and a bevy of ignorant youngsters who are treating her as if she was an icon.
A message needs to be sent to them (if not her) that this sort of behaviour is unacceptable and will have consequences.
ATM her 'followers' see that the photos are still up, she's free to do whatever she pleases, the media have turned her into a rock star, adn there's every likelihood she's going to make money out of all this.
'WHy shouldn't I get in on teh act' must be going throught the minds of some of her 'followers'.
I don't find that notion to be acceptable adn therefore I view the CLub/players' actions in flagging legal redress as appropriate.
Clearly you and others feel that it is heavy-handed.
I might humbly suggest that until one is put into the position of Roo, Dal adn Zac we clearly don't have the comprehension of what might be going through their minds and what damage they have suffered.
I've seen a similar situation (not photos but hurtful and damaging headlines/stories) in regards to someone I know and I've seen the media at its rapacious, disgusting worst.
I've seen how they were affected by the sniggering comments from people who read the headlines and stories and guess what - the retractions are never given the same prominence.
Milne/Montagna are 'rapists' notwithstanding they were found never to have a case to answer for.
the mud sticks.
It's psychologically a little better if the perpetrator of these affronts apologises sincerely, but I can only imagine how much more hurtful it is when the perpetrator figuratively 'gives you the bird' and enjoys the notoriety he/she has casued.
Personally I don't view her as a 17 year old misguided, mistreated, misunderstood young girl.
I see her as a malicious, vindictive piece of work who is hell-bent on cashing in on her notoriety and attempting to prolong that notoriety for as long as she can, whithout caring who she damages on the way.
