Quick! Someone tell Littlejohn!
It was while desk-jawed in disbelief at the cruelty of Mail readers' comments towards a mentally disabled man who had ventured into a bear enclosure in a zoo - stuff like
there are some idiots on this planet
and
When bears come to humans homes, they usually got shot...when humans go to bear's "home" they should be shot too...
POOR BEAR!!!!
and
God, people are so self-centred and stupid. The Policeman should have shot the idiot man, not the poor bear. The bear was not attacking - he was defending himself. This idiot invaded his space. My deepest sympathies to the bear and I hope it gets well soon.
(isn't it 'self-centred' and 'stupid' to have a mental disability?) -
that I saw this on the right-hand side of the page (click for bigger):
Well, that appears to be an online dating site, and... wait. What's that? You mean to say that - gasp - 'men seeking men' and 'women seeking women' are being encouraged - accepted with a cheery wave, as if their existence is somehow equivalent to everyone else - to connect with each other AND BURN IN HELL FOREVER FOR THE CONSEQUENCES OF THEIR SICK AND TWISTED PERVERSION by... the Daily Mail?
Just goes to show, doesn't it? When you've got money to spend, they couldn't care less. Just leave a nasty comment about a seriously injured mentally ill man before you get going on the same-sex relationships, though.

Presumably the Daily Mail reader, once having poured out unpasteurised bile at the expense of minorities, or the weak, defenceless and down-trodden (this could apply to their comments on any article, including sport), signs up to the dating site in order to engage in some gay-bashing for a little light relief.

"My sympathies are with the bear."
Bizarre. Congratulations to the bear for being held in higher regard than rape victims and the mentally ill in the minds of Mail commenters.

That dating thing is just a trap.
They get your details and then send a 'messenger' round to house in the middle of the night to hurry you along to eternal damnation.
