[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So all you moms see nothing wrong with the girls posting nude selfies on social media?  I wouldn't be surprised to hear that the girls sent them directly to the Dropbox themselves. Without the girls' naked pics, the boys would have been playing Call of Duty. [/quote]

Another misogynistic attempt to blame the girls for leading the poor, innocent boys astray.  One can't help but wonder if this is the general atmosphere at the high school involved in this case or just the attitude of a few individuals?

If you want the girls to take responsibility for their possible actions you need to accept that the actions of the boys were far more blame-worthy. It took time and effort to put this site together. The difference in the level of culpability has been noted numerous times. It does a child no favors to make excuses and blame others for their actions.[/quote]

"It does a child no favors to make excuses and blame others for their actions."  This applies equally to the girls.[/quote]

Sorry, but it only applies equally if the girls both took the pictures themselves and then put them together into a website and circulated links so others could view them. At this time, there is nothing in the news indicating the girls took the pictures themselves and two boys are being investigated for starting, owning, and/or operating the website where 52 folders of pictures, 24 of which were labeled with names, were found.
It does not appear that the boys in question were dragged or forced in any way to keep, organize, and distribute these pictures. The people in the pictures were held up for embarrassment and have been placed in danger.
It is much worse to embarrass others and put people in danger than it is to do something foolish thinking someone is romantically interested in you. In terms of character, it is far worse to take advantage of another's vulnerability to put them in a position of embarrassment and possible danger.

You should get your child into therapy. I am sorry she is embarrassed by her actions. I am sorry she learned at an early age that she can't trust somebody that she loves. Luckily she is underage, because if she were 18 the pictures are legal and can never be recovered. [/quote]

I'm not sure why you would assume that anyone who is interested in the facts and the outcome of this case would necessarily be personally involved. I live no where near McLean High School and know no one involved in the case.

I got interested when I read this thread and saw the posts blaming the girls whose pictures were placed on this site. When one kid bullies another kid do we blame the kid who has been bullied? Not usually. If a woman walks down the street with her purse hanging open and her wallet showing, she is foolish. If someone reaches in and steals her wallet, do we excuse the thief because the woman foolishly left her purse open?

Foolish actions versus premeditating and spending the time and effort to collect numerous pictures, put them on a website, and then send out links so others could view the pictures? You don't need to be a lawyer to see which actions here have caused more harm to others. It's difficult to see why anyone would excuse actions that purposely embarrass and endanger others.
