Why does or society put up with this crap? We need a little more ruthlessness towards these type of people.

Worst of. Hopefully these 20 + scumbags have a very short future:

Teen who was raped by up to 20 men after homecoming dance testifies for first time telling jury she still bears scars from brutal attack

She had a blood alcohol level of .35 - four times the legal limit - and has no memory of the attack.

On Tuesday, the father of the girl also revealed the horrifying moment he received a vulgar call from his daughter's cell phone from one of her attackers boasting how good she was at sex.

There is no place bad enough for anyone involved in this attack. Makes me feel physically sick.

Oh, and this shit too:



I hope the photographer never gets another gig for being an insensitive non-inclusive bastard.

One of the good guys:

Redskins Josh Morgan for all his philanthropic endeavors.

I can see the problem the photographer faced, how to get the motorized scooter close enough to the rest of the kids on the bleachers.

Seems he set up the class on the seats and then tried to figure out how to get the scooter as close as he could.

Hey idiot, it's called you don't need to use the bleachers. Let all the other kids stand around behind him.

Lets be fair here as you can see the chair is moved as close as they can get it to the bench sticking out. They could have given it more thought but that's only if they even noticed it like the mother of the child would notice. When we did pics and school they rushed you in and rushed you out and I'm sure in hine sight they wish it was done differently. If they would have moved the kid over on to the bench and something happened what do you think the mom would be saying about that?

I can see several options without even trying. The teacher could stand behind the one child, and would have some unifying effect. They could have not used bleachers. They could have made a front standing row with him in it, and stand on each row instead of sitting. Ultimately it was a lousy job by the photographer, and that he/she didn't realize it is just a little sad.

I agree with you and here is the kicker the person it matters the most too (the boy in the wheel chair) is smiling away so obviously he didn't feel bad about it.

The hard cold fact is he is different then the other kids because of his disability; so yeah at times it will be hard to treat him as a "normal" child.

Two good/funny comments from the article:

he's lucky, the poor kids on the bleacher were born without faces

I just showed the picture to my seven year old and asked her what she thought of the it. She said "he has a really nice smile...and those kids faces look funny". That's all a small child thinks of it. Adults often blow things out of proportion.

School pictures are big money now. Lifetouch, the company that did these, charges crazy prices for even basic pics, and they have upgrades out the wazoo. the open space on the bench is the same as in front of the teacher so at the least they could have shifted the one child to the left of the teacher (as you look at the picture) and it would have been a simple inclusion, but recognition of his disability. As it is, the outsider effect is only magnified by him having to stretch over instead of sitting straight up. The photographer should have been reprimanded, and a redone setting arranged (imo).

I honestly think you are blowing it out of proportion.

What pains my heart in that picture is that child or any child for that matter has to live with a disability like that one.

What warms my heart in that picture is his smile; regardless of his situation he is still smiling.

His teacher and/or his class have made a happy environment for him. No kid smiles like that that is upset. Kids can't really fake their emotions.

Could have things been done to make him more included in the photo? Sure but does it really matter if he was still smiling.

Also to add I pork his teacher.

Dude you got 3 kids you know what it is like on picture day at school or sports. They hustle them in they hustle them out. It is crazy. Photographers don't have all day to complicate everyone's feelings.

My son's baseball picture this year has one kid laying down in the front and another refused to open his eyes. I was there when the pic was taken they did all they could do to "fix" those kids but time constraints made them just go with the flow. Actually it is a kind of funny photo.
