The point is, I get excited over a football game because it's exciting. I get sad over a movie because it's sad. But I can't jump on board with exclaiming, "She's free!" when there's a possibility (even if it's small) that a killer spent only 4 years in jail for a heinous crime.
She's a "poor girl" to me only if she's innocent, and I'll feel "sorry" for her when I'm 100% sure that she didn't kill her roommate.. And that will never happen.
I never said I had a problem with following, discussing, commenting, and posting about a news story. I don't have a problem with anything. I'm not even sure where you're getting "crazy" and "over-emotional" coming from me, but that's your opinion.
ETA: perhaps I shouldn't have quoted any comments in my original post.. Or maybe I should have quoted more. But my comments are not only based on what you and one other poster have said.

Ok, this misunderstanding has gone on too long, lol. My point is just because I posted "she's free!" doesn't mean I'm emotional over it or just got home from an Amanda Knox vigil..etc. I was surprised over the outcome of the appeal, that was all. To be honest, I was more excited about being the first poster post verdict than her actually getting freed
And I strongly agree @ the bolded.
