octowussy -Bah I'm not going to argue with you, I already stated I was talking specifically about the media not the video more than once if you can't understand that its not my issue.UGSlapshot -octowussy -There is alot of stupid in your post, you can say I watched the video on YouTube but obviously your comprehension is lacking.UGSlapshot -tbi0904 -Actually asshole I was sick that day lounging around the house and watching in horror as it unfolded.Brockimoth -aint that a kick in the head - Posting a disrespectful video like that is an insult. I yolu cant understand something as simple as that I dont kow what to say. Its false, and full of inncorrect information. Its not interesting, its slanderous. And the media is completely accountable for what they put out regardless of the timing they have a responsibility to make sure that their information is accurate. I watched it for about a week then shut it off, the entire time there was no mention of a shotgun and the media reported complete inaccuracies so yes I think they are a big part of the problem.

Uchi - Im sure she meant no harm. That being said, perhaps the UFC should invest in providing some guidance to new fighters on their roster in the appropriate use of social media. It blows my mind the disconnect that some pro athletes and celebrities have when it comes to saying dumb shit to the world and understanding the consequences of doing so as a public figure. What the fuck are you talking about! It's not like she's making rape jokes (griffin and torres) she's expressing her real thoughts on twitter. Real "disconnect" (that blows your mind) would be celebrities who proffit from voilent films and then turns around takes part in anti gun psa's. |

UGSlapshot, I already told you that misinformation is extremely common in the twenty-four hour news cycle. If you're taking something that you hear early on as a story develops as gospel and then refuse to follow-up on that information, that makes you lazy, an ignoramus, or both. As long as the twenty-four hour news cycle exists and news programs compete for your attention, misinformation will make it out there. You have a responsibility to make sure that what you're hearing is accurate, either by researching other sources or by sticking around long enough, after the smoke clears, to find out what really happened. You haven't done that while more reasonable people have, myself included. It's 100% unmitigated bullshit that there was no mention of a shotgun within the week following the shooting. The shotgun is mentioned here, in an article from the 19th: http://articles.courant.com/2012-12-19/news/hc-lanza-ghost-20121219_1_home-computer-investigators-video-games Here's one from the 16th, which is only two days after the shooting: http://www.newsnet5.com/dpp/news/national/ar-15-with-high-capacity-magazines-used-by-adam-lanza-in-sandy-hook-school-shooting Another one from the 16th: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/12/16/school-shooter-adam-lanza_n_2312818.html Even better, you can run a custom search for mentions of "Adam Lanza" and "shotgun" between the 14th (the day of the shooting) and the 15th: https://www.google.com/search?q=%22adam+lanza%22+%26+shotgun&hl=en&biw=1440&bih=772&sa=X&ei=r5D5UNWSF_S30QHwu4HQAw&ved=0CB4QpwUoBg&source=lnt&tbs=cdr%3A1%2Ccd_min%3A12%2F14%2F2012%2Ccd_max%3A12%2F15%2F2012&tbm= You can see mentions of the shotgun found in the trunk as well as media outlets correcting earlier statements made in regards to what was found at the scene. "Open your eyes" as your type would say. |

You haven't done that while more reasonable people have, myself included.Listen carefully so that maybe this time you can understand ... maybe. I never called the shooting a hoax or a conspiracy, you said that I did but that's just a fallacy. At the same time you're trying to chastise me for not having enough information to make an informed judgement, but you can't even read a tweet and understand it. Just because you can find the shotgun info from whatever news source doesn't mean that that's what was being reported here and I don't watch news stations like fox news or cnn because they've never had their shit together. Again you are the one being misleading, I never said that I had all the information or had even made a judgment, I said that someone misrepresented what happened, and they did. I also didn't say every media outlet made the same errors, I assumed you would be smart enough to know that I was talking specifically about the broadcasts I watched not every broadcast available that I didn't watch... The point I'm trying to make is not that I'm positive there was a conspiracy that was never my opinion but you claimed it was. I'm saying Ronda has every right to have questions about how it was handled and what happened. I'm not defending the video or her supposed theory because she didn't claim one. I don't accept your excuses for the media period. I don't believe for one second just because she posted link and said its interesting that she believed that it was a hoax, that would be jumping to conclusions more so than I have in this thread, something many in this thread seem more than willing to do. I mean you want to talk about people making assumptions? That's a big assumption right there.

Lol. No reason to apologize to a bunch of thin-skinned cunts. But, whatever. Good for them. |

You haven't done that while more reasonable people have, myself included.Listen carefully so that maybe this time you can understand ... maybe. What tweet did I read and not understand? Ronda's "interesting video" tweet? Because I definitely never commented on it. Find where I chastised her for this or commented on anything other than the content of the video itself or her manager's stupid press release and I'll PayPal you fifty bucks right now. I never said she didn't have the right to link to it and I'm actually glad that she did because it helps cement the fact that she's a fucking bonehead. I don't know what was being reported "here" because I don't know where "here" is for you. We're not roommates. I do know what was and is being reported by national media as well as a number of goofy conspiracy sites. You wouldn't even know what's being reported "here" now because you admit that you haven't watched the news since. Or read a paper. Or the Internet, I guess. You originally asked a bunch of dog-stupid questions which were answered by the police and the media within hours of the shooting. You, by your own admission, did not follow-up on the easy answers to these questions... but yet you asked them anyway, long after they've all been answered. You've managed to cling to a bunch of information that you got over a month ago from mystery sources and haven't bothered to follow-up. Now they've being given to you and you have zero interest in accepting them because you'd much rather remain totally ignorant. It's actually kind of crazy to think that in the five weeks since that shooting, you're still so fucking clueless. That's seriously a major accomplishment. So... congratulations? |

I still don't get how famous people do things or say things, or act in a certain way like it's no big deal. Then when the masses get upset at what you did, you get a manager or PR person to stand up for your actions? When I do something wrong, I have to answer for it, not some manager. I am not saying I agree or disagree with what she did, just the fact her manager makes this statement and not her makes me sick. |

Dazednconfused - You know what's funny. Even if the conspiracy was right and it was an inside job, most Americans wouldn't even take a look at it or give it a chance because you are so close minded end thread. americans get the leaders and celebrities that they deserve. |

What in the hell does she have to apologize for?
She found a video interesting and tweeted it. Why should anyone ever have to apologize for that!?
What the fuck is wrong with you faggots?
Did she offend your delicate sensibilities with something she found interesting and posted on her twitter?
Yeah, she should just shut up and never have an opinion on anything ever again and never think anything ever again and just pander to us pieces of shit.
You faggots disgust me.
Rock on Rhonda and fuck the haters. Think what you want and post what you want.
Don't get sucked into this 'I can only think what the public might like' bullshit and become another faggot please.

Standup29 -UGSlapshot - <blockquote>MachidasStraightLeft - <p><br /> You don't say that kind of shit when 6 year old children are involved. She's a grown woman, and as a very well known figure in MMA she has a responsibility to be more respectful.</p></blockquote>This To be fair, her manager said he hadn't talked to her. "He said he hadn't recently spoken to Rousey (6-0 MMA, 0-0 UFC), who's in training camp to defend her belt against Liz Carmouche (7-2 MMA, 0-0 UFC) in a historic headliner next month at UFC 157. But he speculated she didn't realize the extent of the controversy surrounding the video when she forwarded it." So he never said what part Ronda found interesting, he was just speculating. |

Doctor NPD -2Fort -Doctor NPD - She meant no disrespect to the victims by saying the entire thing was a hoax? What'd she expect the reaction would be? Poor Torres couldn't even quote a television show on Twitter without getting cut and Rousey gets away with this? Nobody cared about what Torres said except Dana effin' White, and even if they did act irrationally back then, it doesn't mean we should act irrationally now. And why should Ronda condemn the video? She feels it raises some good questions. If she posted a video that questioned the veracity of the Holocaust, it would be no different. You can't personally verify what happened at Sandy Hook and you can't personally verify what happened during the Holocaust. You've CHOSEN what you WANT to believe, and whether what you've chosen is ultimately correct, you should acknowledge the fact that you don't actually KNOW. Wise men know they know nothing at all. |

Was that obnoxious bullshit really posted by someone named "mrknowitall"? "you can't personally verify what happened during the Holocaust" No, but Holocaust survivors can. |

Again, if Ronda believes that particular video raises good questions, then she's a fucking idiot, plain and simple. |
