Sending death threats to a five year old for any other reason is also deplorable.
So these people want the girl to die because they don’t like her acting? Because the way she delivered a line just grated on the ears?
The show had a lesbian couple appear in a scene (with the humorous plot device of the girl’s parents being confused over the names of the couple before they met. Hilarious!). Outrage followed from groups like One Million Moms. Now a five-year-old actress on the show is getting death threats.
Occam’s Razor, my friend.
On the other hand, as mentioned … is there a GOOD reason for people to send death threats to a child?
That’s the connection to lesbians? I guess that might make some sense if the death threats were directed at the actresses who played the lesbians or the producers, or writers, etc.
From what little I can glean from the few news stories, “these people” is a singular person. And the messages are devoid of any reference that would link the threats to the show. I would think the “Occam’s Razor” approach is that sick people send death threats to famous people either for attention or simply becuase they’re sick.
Which is not to say that it isn’t about lesbians, but I would have expected more evidence of connection.
No. Why would there be?
Pointless when the kid probably can’t even read. You really need to threaten them in person. Sneak into their bedroom at night wearing a monster mask, or chase them with a running chainsaw.
They’re trying to get a jump on all the hating she’s goin to get when she turns into a seventeen-year old celeb-monster?
No, independent contractors. They need plausible deniability. The footprints of a giant mouse or duck at the scene . . . it just raises a red flag. You need to go outside the organization.
This is a job for Dennis the Menace.
Well, if that little girl would just stop making all these controversial casting decisions for the show, she wouldn’t be in this mess, now would she?
If you think that’s a joke you don’t know your divas . . .
Never met a five year old, eh?
You magnificent bastard.
