So have you seen the latest South Park episode as of this week? What did you think of Parker & Stone's comparison of Britney Spears with the violent public executions and tortures of the past?

I didn't notice anything like that.

The episode was very funny, though.

Check the end of the episode, where someone explains that we still need sacrifices but don't want a return to the coliseum or public stonings. I'm glad the South Park producers finally said it; Britney Spears is a fragile young woman and the media are hounding her to death, and they need to quit it.

I haven't seen the episode. But if that really was their message, I salute them. :salut:

I can't believe Trey and Matt were actually supporting Britney. She's a victim of her own circumstance. The way she puts her kids in danger and whatnot.

The boys weren't supporting Britney Spears' actions. They were criticising the media, and those who consume the media, for stalking and harassing her wherever she goes.

one would think that they're not above doing the same as the media.

Rather, they're having Stan and Kyle be all loving and apologetic.

No, it doesn't come across that way at all. Check out the episode and see what you think of it - you can get it on Limewire or EZTV
