Okay. I love social media, particularly Twitter. I use it to communicate with friends, find out fandom facts and yes, to see pictures of J2 and their families. But there are pictures it's okay to see and pictures there aren't. Pictures you go up to them and ask politely for are one thng, pictures they share are also great, pictures from a con you're at...awesome. But pictures you take paparazzi style in church, at playgrounds, restaurants and yes in funerals are not for public consumption. These are beautiful people who we all want to see. Ain't gonna lie y'all. The picture of the Ackles on Easter leaving church was precious. I saw it. Yes I looked at it. I didn't retweet it and I would never have taken or posted it. A new low to me tho is taking pictures at a funeral. I realize this girl was young and excited. I really fault the parent who took 30 pictures and sent them to her, making her think it was alright to post it. In the South we would would say that's not raising her right. I do not excuse others who used the pictures and weren't able to claim being a teenager as an excuse. I really feel that since Jensen and Danneel are such private people we as fans should respect that. He asked before JJ was born for us to be respectful and sensitive about pictures. They are generous to share often and so are Jared and Gen.
Which brings me to another subject I won't be as sweetly "southern" about. Hating on someone's baby is just wrong. Anyway you look at it. If you dare to do this you are NOT a fan. You are just an evil person. First off, that baby is gorgeous. She looks like her beautiful parents.So much like her daddy! She's a baby. Not even two yet and someone has the audacity to say things like about her that are so hateful?. What the hell is wrong with someone if they would actually tag the child's parents with this crap? I woke up and saw all this. I do not know how it got on my TL...retweets and requests to block I suppose. I did block and report it. I literally broke down and cried over it. I hope other fans did too. The so called SPNantibullying account actually said PLEASE to these people about tagging the Ackles? How does that help? They are pretty much in my opinion allowing it to go on by doing this.You can't give these people an inch. Then they send out a plea to send positivity to Jensen and Danneel. Which I support.But how about a firm you are a hater, we are reporting you and asking fans to block you. They don't deserve our niceness. Or our asking them for anything.No second chances. Our boys and their beautiful families do not deserve any of this hate. I chalk it up to these people being jealous. That girl hating on Danneel a little while back saying Jensen needed some one as nice as her? Umm. No. If you hate on his girls, you don't deserve to lick his boots. I worship the ground this man walks on. I've never made a secret of my love for him and the character he plays. I hope that everyone out there who claims to be his fan wants him to be happy, to have his beautiful little family, that he keeps on sharing with us. The fact of the matter is he avoided Twitter etc for so long because of crap like this. Who would blame him if he just decided it wasn't worth it? There are people out there who are mean. Just plain mean. I've decided they are just unhappy with themselves and want everyone else unhappy too. Most of the fans are 100% supportive and the boys know this or they wouldn't give up 13 weekends a year away from their wives and kids to go to cons and be with us. I believe in the fandom as a whole. I do. I sincerely hope you will send them love today. Don't mention the hater. Just surround them with voices that say You're the best. Because they are. We are so lucky people. No other show out there has stars that care so much. Especially not the main characters. Have you considered that every single star that has been on the stage at a con says this is a family? EVERY SINGLE ONE. You don't treat your family bad. We can crush the hate . It's easy. Love our boys and their families today y'all. It'll make your Monday and theirs better.
