		<description>We have a county prosecutor and a defense attorney who have gone on the record with statements that flat out rewrite history and previous statements.

If we were to believe that the statements Lori Drew is now making are truthful, and the police report she filed in Nov. 2006, was incorrect, then Lori Drew should be prosecuted for filing a false police, making a false statement or obstruction of justice.  

Lori Drew, through her attorney Jim Briscoe has made the following statement:

"Everything, as far as Mrs. Drew knew, was that all the communication was nice and polite and there was no harassing going on. She did not create the MySpace account. She did not instruct anybody to create the MySpace account. She never made any communications through the MySpace account."

Well alright Lori, now that you've completely absolved yourself from the case in any way, shape or form, please explain how this squares with your previous statements. 

When it all comes down to it, we simply don't believe you. We'll take the officer's account of what you said above what your attorney says. He was not being paid to defend you.

Jack Banas, we are calling for charges in this case one way or another.

Either the women endangered this child, or she made knowingly false statements to the police prior to the surfacing of this report.

You cannot absolve this woman of complete wrong doing on both sides of the fence. Pick a side or step down and let someone take over who can. Too many admissions have been publicly made for you to continue to hide under your desk.

		<description>While the Megan Meier case seems outrageous and unique, it isn’t.  Hundreds of cases of egregious and heinous acts go on every day with the same excuses out of our lawmakers.

One such other case....The case of Nikki Catsouras, is a classic example of disgusting, hateful activity against innocent victims, while our lawmakers excuse themselves from enacting laws to prevent this.

The excuse lawmakers use to let themselves off the hook stem from the growth of the Internet and how fast it's changing. This is a sham. 

Chat rooms, message boards, instant messengers and email have been in existence for far over a decade now. While the software used to transmit messages changes slightly, the basic essence of using the Internet to send a message is largely the same. Is a decade or two long enough to establish some basic decency laws in regards to Internet usage?

I’ve posted the Nikki Catsouras story along with many details about the Megan Meier case so the inactivity out of our lawmakers towards these types of cases can be clearly seen.

Those who are interested in learning about cases like Megan’s and Nikki’s case are encouraged to drop by and comment on them.  I have a couple of polls set up as well.  Danny Vice would like to hear your point of view.

Public awareness of the problem and discussions about possible solutions are the best way to pressure elected officials into action instead of excuse making.

I invite you to come by and share your opinion.

		<description>I'd be the one throwing the brick if it weren't for the fact that I'd be scared to get caught. Lol. 

Kidding aside, it's understandable how the community retaliated considering the lack of apparent justice. And considering that it wasn't a secret that Megan was suffering from depression, Drew shouldn't have went on with it. How could she not know, right? Her daughter is good friends with Megan.</description>

		<description>What do you expect with all the crazy things going on with people on the internet these days (Chris Hanson, dateline) etc..  People need to start going out in the world and conversing with people like god intended us to, (Normally).</description>

		<description>I just read the articles related to this issue yesterday, and it's really riveting. It's sick how Lori Drew was defending her actions, and how other people are saying she (Lori) is not to blame, as she did not tie the noose around Megan's head. Hello?! An adult bullying a 13-year old who she know might be mentally unstable? 

I also read that the Meiers are monitoring Megan online. They were with her when she opens her Myspace. It's sad that it wasn't enough to stop Megan from doing such drastic action.

As for the lynch mob, it's certainly not the best action. I don't support it, but I guess it's the only thing the community feel they can do, since the law wasn't able to help the Meier's case.</description>

		<description>Even though a third party was actually involved in the typing of the messages, Drew had a hand in planning this plot. This makes her an equal accomplice in guilt.
Somehow she doesnt think so but Drew has a lot of Karma to work out!</description>

		<description>I just watch a 20/20 special(ABC.com) on this girl and her family. Her parents are taking some responsibility of things but I do agree that those Drew's are one sick and cruel human beings.</description>
