Mad at Octo-mom?

Okay -- about "Octo-mom" (Nadya Suleman) -- I agree with the rest of the nation that her decision of having over a dozen kids who she virtually can't support was unwise. However, some people acted more affected over the story, than with many people losing their jobs.

As my introduction was saying, aside from the possibility of paying taxes for Suleman's children, I don't think it's really our business, despite the mass media attention this has received. Also, the way people are expressing their anger, such as death threats, is too much. Though, I agree that this is probably the craziest and the most outrageous story heard this year, threatening her life doesn't solve the problem. It only makes it worse. Also, if she does die, those fourteen innocent, faultless children would still be in this world, needing to be cared for. So, for those who wish her dead, they should just get a life and stop being so mad over something that is not really their concern. They are more upset with Suleman than they are with the economy. Though, I won't send her money, I do think she needs help -- on her children and herself.
