    I know it's never good to be one of those posters who replies early in a new thread with a one word post because it comes across as either strangely desperate or attention seeking, but having said that, in response to your post and opinion on this one particular WWN article being the one which made you report it I just really want to know your motivations. So I guess I could sum this post up in three letters, a dot and a squiggly line.


    Why?

    Well you should probably build a bridge and get over it so.

    I think it's in poor taste given the recent Cavan deaths tbf

    WWN can be hit and miss. That's a miss.

    So you opened up to an audience that would have never seen it otherwise.

    Seems harmless to me. Probably not haha funny though.

    There's all kinds of actual horror going on in the world at the moment, maybe spare your outrage for something truly outrageous.

    Oh, won't somebody think of the children?!

    Over 8,000 Facebook users have liked it, but you want it removed because it doesn't suit your sense of humour. Ride on, righteous one!

    I was expecting something a bit more controversial when I clicked the link. It's not particularly funny.

    However, I'm amazed that anyone could be even remotely offended by that. The only connection between that story and the events in Cavan is in your head.

    That's fair enough but why report it, why not just ignore it.
