Also just because you are an certain age (16) doesn't make one an adult.
Even then why are you continuing an point that Bristol can be attacked because she is an "adult"?
In all children who get charged as an adult it is FOR murder huge difference (note is not wither they are an adult but wither they are an danger to society).
Really, so you would still have people reserve the right to go after someone family let alone there children? The issue here is not wither she put her children out there like you would have it, it's wither they are fair game to which it is NOT. You think she puts her children out there chastise her for it, don't think it's ok to go after them. Do I have to add they went after her son and said it was one of her daughters, do you even know how petty that is? How did she parade him around to deserve that?
Also either you start to support (with evidence) your argument about her "parading" her children or drop it.

I specifically said that being an adult is not an age thing. I said it has to do with your mental state of being. I said just because you turn 18 you don't magically switch over to being an adult besides what the law says.
And I only brought up murder to point out this previous statement. Its not always about the law abiding age. You can still be considered an adult even below the age of 18. And its not just if your a danger to society. There are people who are tried as minors even if they are a danger to society. They are just put in to juvenile detention. They are tried as adults if the law thinks they were knew what they were doing and acting as an adult.
And the only reason I brought up this whole thing about her being and adult is because you kept saying the CHILDREN are off limits. So I said I don't see her as a child. I didn't really want to get in a huge discussion on what the requirements to be an adult are, but you brought it there. I was only trying to state she can be viewed as and adult.
Like I have said in, oh, ever post in this thread. Personally, if I were in the media, I would not go after the kids or her family. Unless they did something worthy of news coverage on their own. Meaning doing something other than being related to Sarah Palin. But for some reason you still think that I have some vendetta against Palin's family. But that goes without saying that I do think the media can go and attack whoever they want. Some people use loose guidelines on who can and cant be criticized. And usually the family, and almost always the family is off limits. Unless they warrant some criticizing or stuff they do on their own. But her family reached the spot light, they are bound to get criticized and made fun of. Thats what happens when people know your name, and some people don't like you. They will go after you for anything. Is it right? Is it wrong? I know where you stand. And I know where I stand. Why don't your stop with the holier than though stance and accept that people can have different morals than you. Some people are ok with going after the family. Some aren't. Just face the facts that everyone is not the same as you. Opinions will differ.
And yes I will try and find some articles showing how she paraded around her family, and used them for political gain. Not right this second as I don't have the time. Most of what I am talking about comes from reading, listening to others talk about it, and just watching many of her speeches when she brings out the family or just talks about them all the time. And honestly if you don't feel like waiting for me just type in any combination of Palin, family, using, gain, parading. And I am sure you will find many forums and articles talking about this.
Here is one that i found interesting. However it was after the Letterman Joke. But it is still interesting.
