Social Media Outrage Follows Autumn Pasquale Death

Many teens are raging online against the suspects accused of killing Autumn Pasquale.

Editor’s note: Some of the links in this story contain profanity. There’s nothing new about the anger, sadness and confusion that follows a senseless killing. But today more than ever, people are finding an outlet online to share their grief—and, sometimes, to reveal information authorities won’t. That’s what is unfolding after the heartbreaking death of 12-year-old Autumn Pasquale, the Clayton girl allegedly strangled by two teen neighbors. Police arrested the 17- and 15-year-old brothers, but refused to release their names Tuesday. That didn’t matter to dozens, perhaps hundreds, of teens on Twitter, who quickly revealed the suspects' names as those charged with killing Pasquale. One teen took a screenshot, allegedly of one suspect's …

“G” in God should be capitalized, except for atheist or progressives. Secularism seems to be the mantra of the left-wing loons, if religion is a problem then too bad. Can one assume you are a progressive? You stated “undereducated” you meant uneducated? A "lack of understanding" doesn't equate to uneducated but not understanding the concepts debated. "Your intolerance" was due to the other …   more ›
