Drudge Retort: Red Meat for Yellow Dogs
Friday, March 12, 2010

Photos of the nude and decapitated body of a murdered hiker, sought by a writer on assignment for Hustler magazine, will not be released, a judge in Georgia ordered Wednesday. The decision came as state lawmakers considered legislation that would ban public release of graphic photos of crime victims. First Amendment lawyers say the legislation could have a chilling effect on open records requests.

nude and decapitated body of a murdered hiker

Why would anyone need to carry a gun in a National park, or hiking in the wilderness?

Who Cares, the 1st Amendement is a Right granted by the government. BB

Car antenna, or dipstick?

Nude decapitated corpses. Hustler is really hitting the very bottom of the barrel. How low can you go?

We MUST depend on our government to protect us from rapists, robbers, burglars, Wall street bankers and ripoff artists, and others that succumb to crime, greed and incompetence.

BUT when any govt. agency fails, we must throw every last one of them out of office and out of a job and out of retirement.

It can't be merely one-sies and two-sies, it must be all of them in one fell swoop otherwise each and everyone will work to protect not us but the security of their peers, instead of working to defend the public.

You're one swell foop.

Personally, I'm glad they can't publish those horrific photos.

Well, in that case, you're a fucking fascist.
But hey isn't it nice that the First Amendment protects your right to speak your fascist thoughts? Well it protects Larry Flynt too.
P.S. Nobody is forcing you to buy Hustler or visit websites like
rotten.com

"Personally, I'm glad they can't publish those horrific photos."

tell that to the VN war survivors that saw their own killed in VN

That's Mister Fucking Facist to you, pal.

Gee, where's FW or 101 whining about their civil right being trampled on?

There are limits to free speech and I think publishing those photos are probably exceeding them. Just like Fred Phelps cheering at funerals exceeds them.

Incidence like this in the wilderness are rare, but carry if you want. Doesn't bother me. I've never needed a carry one though.

A friend of mine that lives near Spring Mountain knew this girl and her family. Apparently, she put up quite a fight and supposedly almost got away from the guy.

I hope they put this animal in general population to let natural selection run its course.

I would be very surprised Hustler would print these photos of the victim as Flint once purchased Jessica Lynch's nude photos to keep them from being published as he rightly considered her fame to have been manufactured by the US government propaganda machine.

FTA: "The photos are awful, but it's also awful to see pictures of people in wars, soldiers fighting or the victims of wars," said New York attorney Martin Garbus. "I don't think there should be any kind of censorship because of awfulness."

THIS.

The American media already wraps the public in a protective cocoon of unreality. Witness the lack of serious coverage of any military adventure since Vietnam.

The public good that would be served by the release of these photos would be an increase in the visceral revulsion felt for violent crime.

Treating Americans who seek truth even grim truth like kids going for the bleach under the sink is an insult and it sets a dangerous precedent.

Be Well.

I can't think of any reason.

Larry Flynt naked?

Once again, leave it to these backwards ass states to remove even more masturbating material from the public.

HUSTLER was just trying to get ahead
