I am glad there is attention to crimes against women. Evergreen Emerald Sep 2021 #7

It's not attention to the issue. It's attention toward entertainment. WhiskeyGrinder Sep 2021 #20

You don't know who I am either, but if I'm murdered, I assume it would make the news. Croney Sep 2021 #10

I sincerely doubt if you were murdered, it would make national news StarfishSaver Sep 2021 #15

Gee, thanks a lot. Croney Sep 2021 #19

Why do you find that to be an insult? StarfishSaver Sep 2021 #25

Poor you StarfishSaver Sep 2021 #26

I think we can solve this. LiberatedUSA Sep 2021 #34

No, poor Gabby. BannonsLiver Sep 2021 #35

She's not the only person who's been murdered StarfishSaver Sep 2021 #38

My mistake. I didn't realize it was a competition. BannonsLiver Sep 2021 #40

No, it's not a competition. It's a comparison StarfishSaver Sep 2021 #43

Really? BannonsLiver Sep 2021 #48

Why would you have heard of her before this? Do you think ordinary people should be famous in some ZonkerHarris Sep 2021 #47

You get a lot of people doing hit and runs in topics about Gabby... Lancero Sep 2021 #50

What does that have to do with anything? maxsolomon Sep 2021 #51
