The public might benefit from less of...whatever this is? By which I mean to say the public of MetaFilter, who must needs be kept safe from tacky sub-TMZ posts.

Surreal headline, depressing story.

I'm trying to figure out what the deal is with the picture captioned "Death toll at 'sabotage' hospital rises to five".

Two balls is hardly top-end juggling, the lightweight.

Was this posted because the offender is a dwarf? Or because he played an ewok (and supposedly a role in Harry Potter which according to IMDB isn't true, and the article couldn't be arsed to specify)? Because of the judge's decision?
Granted what he did is horrible but I can't imagine the judge's sentence is that outlandish. The man needs rehabilitation, and the judge decided that would benefit society more than a short sentence.
Anyway. This post just kind of baffles me.
