Despicable. Disgusting.

How awful for the victims and families to have to see this kid elevated to the status of a rock star.

Every retail outlet that carries the Rolling Stone Magazine ought to refuse to carry this issue and drop the magazine from being carried.

RS has the right to publish this under free speech but retailers and consumers also have the right not to carry it or purchase it.

This same concept applies to rap music and video games advocating violence and demeaning women. They may have the right to produce them but stores should have the good citizenship to refuse to carry them.

I believe CVS pharmacies arent carrying this issue. I expect nothing different from this rag, really. Look at the lifestyles they celebrate.

any magazine that would have a degrading, nude pregnant woman on the cover(Demi Moore).... have as much morals as the Porn industry IMO~

Hmm, maybe I just don't see the subtleties, but it looks to me like they called him a monster on the cover, so that's not exactly a compliment. I think the only reason people are irritated is because the kid is just so durn good looking.
