You still don't get it.

I don't care about animal abuse stories in general. The web is full of weird non-news.

I care about furry sex offender stories concentrated in one single blog that draw the connection between the furry commmunity and a completely unrelated offense of a deranged individual making it look like he did it BECAUSE he was furry.

"Cat rapist was a furry" is as irrelevant as "Spree Killer was a gamer". No matter how true the underlying correlation is, the implied causation is not, yet still that's what the world believes if you put it on your headline.

And the headline in question was here on flayrah. We don't have to deprecate our own fandom. I don't know where this perverted lulzian masochism to smear your own community comes from, but it must stop.
