Looking across all social media outlets today and scanning the web, it seems to me that the majority of us are disgusted with Rolling Stone Magazine.

In case you haven't heard, the editors of Rolling Stone thought it a good idea to place Boston Marathon bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev front and center on the cover of their August issue. Focusing on how this "good kid" became a monster.

The backlash against the magazine has already started with Boston Mayor Thomas Menino releasing a copy of the letter he wrote to RS expressing his distate for the cover. In addition, Walgreen's, 7-Eleven and CVS Pharmacy have already said they would not sell this issue.

I'm sure that in the coming days more retailers will refuse to sell the magazine, petitions will be drawn up online boycotting Rolling Stone, and a whole lot more people will vocalize their anger at the current cover. To me, it's best just left alone. If I buy a copy, I support them.

I found this next photo online and figured it an appropriate ending to this post. This is a Rolling Stone magazine cover I could get behind and support. Let's learn more about who the victims were. Let's focus on some of the heroes from that day.
