I don't know that anyone could forgive that, but even if you can't forgive your child for something they've done, you don't stop loving them. You may not like who they've become, you may never even want to see them again, but that doesn't change history. The Casey sitting at the defense table, is somewhere in Cindy's mind, still the little baby girl she brought home as a newborn wrapped in a pink receiving blanket. She's still the silly toddler that Cindy (as a mother) loved more than life itself. She's the kindergartener going off to her first day of school. She's every memory and every hope that Cindy had for daughter. Cindy still loves THAT daughter, even while not liking the person Casey has become. Does that make any sense?
I agree they should have just let LE handle it, but those protesters were so scary!! To be honest, I'm not sure I wouldn't have hosed them down.My thanks MissJames for the time and effort you took to compile this list. I agree with your comments. While I am very sorry these parents had to go through this experience and have lost a child they loved dearly, I am and have been all along shaking my head at the reaction George and Cindy have toward the public and any officials who have tried to help them.
I would like to add to your list the strange and violent behavior of George and Cindy toward the people who gathered in front of their house to protest. It's not that I think the public should have been there, but I question the Anthony's reaction.
Instead of staying in the house and calling law enforcement to help break up or discourage the crowd outside, George and Cindy physically went outside to confront the crowd.
This only resulted in more yelling, screaming and physical acts from the crowd and from Geoge and Cindy too. I found their willingness to step into that situation and further the chance of someone getting hurt very disturbing and troubling. And, I can not find a good reason or and excuse for them to have acted this way.
Finally, MissJames I am sorry for your loss of a child.
jmo
So I should have let my kid play on the other side of the fence?
And I don't base my opinion on someone by what I see on TV or hearsay; but their words and actions, or in some cases, inaction.
I fully expect others to make judgments about me by my words, actions, or failure to act when prudent.
If I have made a false accusation or wrongly point my finger, then I will apologise. Only a coward would hide from their own wrongdoing.
I completely disagree. It's not wrong, the Anthony's have proven in the past that when push comes to shove, they will toss their granddaughter's memory under the bus. Every single time.Of course not. I was not speaking about the circumstance you specifically brought up. A better correlation would be that a child had went missing and you immedietly accuse the man simply because he was in the park alone and he 'looked' suspect.
I cannot defend the actions and words of the grandparents. But at the end of the day, I know they are people who lost their granddaughter, at the hands of their own daughter no less. I've seen alot of people question their love for that child based on what they have observed and I'm sorry, I think that's wrong.
Cindy Anthony, back on the stand, says she searched for ''chloroform'' on the computer in her house.
What community? It's my understanding that, for the most part, the people in the A's community were very put out by the protesters. If people had left the A's alone, let the police and the courts handle the matter, as they're supposed to, the A's may not have become so defensive, they may not have gotten their dander up and may not have developed such an "us against them" attitude. The protesters accomplished nothing but to get their faces on TV and cause total chaos for innocent people in the community, which is exactly what they hoped to accomplish. Those very same people who protested the fact that Casey was living in the A's home while out on bond embraced LP as a hero even though she would not have been out if not for him. I've never figured that one out.
As of this moment, Casey is still presumed innocent. Her parents, after defending her for all this time, have finally accepted that she has done something that caused the death of their beloved grandchild. Although they did not believe at first that Caylee was dead, and then they refused to accept or state publicly that they believed Casey was involved, they did allow the law to take it's course. The protesters did not.
Cindy directed that to the media that had been camped 24/7 outside her home. They were indeed acting like leaches, parasites, and maggots. Bravo to her for telling them so!
None of us would. I lost a son,but it still doesn't compare to their nightmare.
The problem is,they brought so much of it on by their own actions.
A lot of people have been hurt by the A's.
ETA: All the info is true and can be found here at WS . The real stuff,not just media stories. I think there's even audio of voice messages CA left for Tim Miller and John Allen.Nasty stuff.
Tim Miller is a stand up guy and I wish I was more like him. He forgave the A's
Someone needs to tell Cindy that if she every really wants to know the truth about how her daughter murdered her granddaughter she might want to stop clouding that truth with more and more lies.
Ok I will agree with you on everything you said.......a close friend of mine son brutally stabbed and killed an elderly couple during a home invasion gone wrong. He now is in Tennessee State Prison serving LWOP. She never in a million years would have believed her son would have done such a heinous crime. He was the beautiful little boy in her mind that played outside with his trucks, she thought she had brought up a respectable young man but unfortunately he got hooked up with the wrong crowd.
He will never see the outside of the prison but SHE STILL LOVES HIM!
According to TM, us WS'ers are all a bunch of losers who sit on the computer 24/7 lol. :woohoo:
