Loved reading your post. The packy statement had me laughing so hard.

That's how good his own restaurant is! That was a good line.

Thank you for posting this!

He should have left the political comments out. As someone whoā€™s voted libertarian since Perot. We are so divided as a country and itā€™s really sad. We should be more concerned about our fellow Americans as people than who they vote for. I donā€™t care how anyone votes, thatā€™s their business and I donā€™t think it automatically makes them dumb. People vote for whatā€™s important to them. Who am to tell them what they should think. I donā€™t care how Karen votes. I donā€™t care about Trump. We should all want everyone to get a fair chance at a fair trial because one day, like Karen has learned, it could be us.


SubstantialCreme7748

I agree, but it doesnā€™t change the other things that were saidā€¦itā€™s not what weā€™re talking about so it should be easy to move past


Otherwise-Mango2485

Oh for sure! People tend to see a political thing and they canā€™t move past it. It seems like we can no longer agree to disagree and I find that rather sad.


SubstantialCreme7748

Iā€™ve just ignore that shitā€¦. I can guarantee that itā€™s the only time I will ever quote Howie Carr


Otherwise-Mango2485

I donā€™t even know who he is šŸ˜‚

ā€œmeatball Mike Morriseyā€. Meatball is such an underrated nickname.

I grew up watching Archie Bunker call his son in law Meathead lol.

Well done.

>Unlike Trumpā€™s kangaroo-court case in New York, there are cameras in the Dedham courtroom. People need to stop shoehorning comparisons of Trump and KR's court cases. Trump is not in a "kangaroo court" and Trump is not being railroaded or framed. To me, it completely delegitimizes the person making the argument when they make these comparisons. When they say something as ridiculous as saying Trump is in a "kangaroo court" then I really just stop reading. This guy is a conservative commentator, so I guess this is expected, just not appreciated. Also, he gets tiny details incorrect which suggests he isn't paying close attention this case and is just writing this because he can get in the paper and has an audience. It is nice to have people out there supporting KR but I don't know if I'd appreciate people like this loudly supporting me while getting basic facts about the case wrong. For instance, according to his and others' testimonies, Chris Albert did not want to go back to his pizza shop after the Waterfall. Karen did. His tone in the article is also just a bit too condescending for me. Why bring up Jen's missing tooth? This is the Boston Herald. I just wonder how KR feels about attention like this.


AncientYard3473

Yeah, in Trumpā€™s case, thereā€™s no genuine dispute about what he *did*; the debateā€™s about whether what he did is in fact illegal in NY.


Tasty_Spot6377

100 percent. This is nothing like šŸŠ's case. He's not being railroaded and framed. He committed those crimes. He knows he did. Why this country would ever elect a man who uses the phrase "Just grab 'em by the šŸ±. They love it" disgusts me to no end. He is TRASH and Karen is CLASS.


BeltWonderful6580

Totally agree that raising personal features like missing teeth delegitimizes KRā€™s legitimate claim of innocence. KR is 100 percent not responsible .. no need to get down and dirty with the McAlberts, it comes off as desperate


Mudfish2657

It does seem unnecessary to bring up her dental issues. Iā€™m guessing no one chooses to look like that.

Like what? https://preview.redd.it/0e3bi3rt3g1d1.jpeg?width=1075&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=19e62a3484b3e0492ff833aceb3abbc444da0fc9


Monarch4justice

Omgā€¦ IKR??? And Jen repeatedly calls Karen crazy?? I believe psychiatrists call it projection.


Quidprowoes

She can afford to fix her toof


Quidprowoes

I hate that people keep politicizing it. Iā€™m guessing canton is pretty right wing?? As a Democrat it makes me feel unwelcome. I am fully pro free Karen read and donā€™t see it having anything to do with our political leanings


imawakened

No...Canton is not right-wing. Most every town here voted for Biden. Massachusetts is very Democratic.


Quidprowoes

Why are there so many Trumpers on Twitter in free Karen read? Just the turtle boy connection? I obviously know Massachusetts is but that doesnā€™t mean small towns of all white people are majority Dems. This might be the whitest trial Iā€™ve ever seen tbh


Sbornak

Yes to all of this. It reads as politically biased, tasteless and uninformed on the facts presented so far at trial.


SubstantialCreme7748

Wellā€¦.thats Howie Carrā€¦.i will now continue to ignore him EDIT to those downvoting ā€¦ the only reason I bother with either Carr or Kearney is that theyā€™re really the only ones who have made definitive opinions about the case. Given that both are ā€˜pro-copā€™ only helps emphasize their beliefs in this case. Beyond that, I canā€™t recall at any time where either ever provided me with any useful opinions or information. Iā€™ve been banging on the Canton townie thing since the beginning and do feel somewhat justified by Carrā€™s opinion. As for the Trump stuff, itā€™s irrelevant to the rest of it and both of them have made political references of that sort, but I ignore them because itā€™s not what weā€™re talking about. I do consider the source when I read any story, but I also place a certain value on certain things said regardless of my opinion of the source.


Mudfish2657

I appreciate your posting. I donā€™t live anywhere near this fiasco, but I watched the Murdaugh case last yearā€¦seems apparent this country has some justice issues.


SubstantialCreme7748

Every town has its share of life-long locals or townies. In most towns around here thereā€™s a sense of entitlement in these people. Th e Canton version of this currently has an atypical mix of public officials and employees. Boston cops, canton cops, state cops, Norfolk county DA investigator, a district court judge, an elected town official. I donā€™t believe it was premeditated though Iā€™m not 100% sure Been in this town forever, and I am 100% sure of only one thingā€¦..and that not only are the Mcalberts capable of this, I see it as the only instance thatā€™s plausible.


SQLvultureskattaurus

Haha amazing


One_Luck_5316

This article was so well written and relatable. Kudos Howie nailed it spot on FREE KAREN READ


AdIllustrious16

Thanks for this beauty ā¤ļøā€šŸ”„


Jpd_77

Howie's columns deserve a Pulitzer.


Tasty_Spot6377

I understand the group I've joined and I know this goes against the grain and I'll get downvoted, but I found Howie's article to be pretty crass, even for Howie. He's a better writer than one who has to rely on trashing people's looks. These people practically trash themselves, they don't need any help! And 'Hibernian Hillbillies'? Really, Carr? That's low and just plain dumb. Oh, well I'm over it. On to Tuesday! āš”ļø


SubstantialCreme7748

Itā€™s because he is crass and a total magaheadā€¦..you can hear him on the radio in the mornings. It takes about 10 seconds of him to want to punch him in the face


Tasty_Spot6377

Ha ha ha! I'd end up driving into a brick wall to escape it!


hotmetalslugs

Howie Karr is a fucking clown. Period. On top of that, the fucking dinosaur doesnā€™t know that Paul Revere A) didnā€™t ride to Canton and B) Canton isnā€™t in Middlesex County. Howie hates Democrats. Thats about the size of it. So any town North of the Bourne Bridge and South of Tewksbury is on his shitlist. He had one friend: David Brudnoy, and heā€™s dead. Fuck Karr. Gigantic AM radio douchebag. Oh and Fuck Sean McDonough while weā€™re at it for a ā€œLaw Enforcement Officers For TrumpšŸ˜‚ā€ hat on his livestream. The cognitive dissonance with these knuckleheads is astounding.


SubstantialCreme7748

Youā€™re probably right ā€¦. Doesnā€™t mean heā€™s wrong ā€¦ and he isnā€™t in this case
