Very sad. Hope the video game haters don't come in here. He's obviously a bad person, nothing to do with games.

By the way people always say, how sad the world has become like this. Just remember it has always been like this, maybe way worse at times. Remember there's always good things in the world. There is a balance, good and bad.
Peace.

This really is the saddest story i have read for a while.
The awful truth is that this little girl isn't the first to suffer abuse while the pathetic mother turns a blind eye, and sadly she won't be the last

Well i hope they throw the book at the Mother also. The boyfriend may be a murderous, evil psychopath who cannot control his temper but what's her excuse?
The report said the little girl had been beaten for months, how that Mother could sleep at night i will never know.

The article says the girls mother was 19 years old.. This is a prime example of why kids shouldn't have kids. Of course, some whacko conservative journalist will defend everyone's right to a child and blame this all on the videogame industry. Want to do your part in fixing society? Don't have kids until you are a grownup! Go to college, join the army, get a job, etc. Don't have kids until 25 or later.
