Love for Antoine

[csberry]

I got lots of love for Huntsville's most famous celebrity right now - Antoine Dodson. Something I could always count on when screening calls for the radio show was that people will get passionate about what they would do if someone raped/injured/killed a family member. Antoine's original interview so well encapsulated that emotion. His and his sister's comments about the perpetrator's stupidity is classic!

Here is an update on Antoine since finding internet fame this past week:

I'm a bit confused why people would think that allowing victims of a crime to speak about their ordeal would "reflect badly on the community". The news is supposed to report the facts, and the fact is that people often deal with life's scary moments through humor and bravado.

I agree with the reporter: NOT allowing someone to speak (for whatever reason) would be much, much worse.
