For the record folks - and blathering about "free speech" aside - do me a favour and don't make jokes in your blog about the trial happening here in Vancouver for the murder of (the first) 6 (of nearly 30) women in the downtown East side.*

These women were brutalized and murdered and have all too often been dehumanized in the press as "prostitutes" and "drug addicts" etc. Their families are suffering enough.

Your need to be clever or kewl or cutting edge? Fuck off. Take your adolescent, insensitive shite elsewhere.

It's horrible. All of it. And not funny. None of it.

*I'm gonna avoiding naming the accused: I don't want to contribute to his notoreity.
