An unknown hacker apparently gained access to a 2-year-old girl's baby monitor, calling her by name and harassing her, and her parents, with insults and profanity.

A couple in suburban Houston, Texas, told CNN affiliate KTRK that, over the weekend, they heard a strange voice in the bedroom shared by their two toddlers. When they got there, Marc Gilbert said they realized the voice was coming from the Web camera they use to keep tabs on the children.

What they heard next was ugly.

"He said, 'Wake up Allyson, you little #######,' " Gilbert said. He said the hacker, who had a British or European accent, may have read her name on a wall in the bedroom.

They need to catch this person....

I can't even imagine how someone THINKS about doing something like this.

While this is creepy, I can't help but chuckle a bit at this:

When he and his wife Lauren arrived, Gilbert said, the camera swiveled to face them. The hacker proceeded to call him a "stupid moron" and his wife a , Gilbert said, before he unplugged the camera.

Yup. the ####### comment was over the top to the kid, but what he said to the parents is funny. Probably nothing more than some screwball playing around, but creepy nonetheless.

If by "hate" you mean we're your favorite white boys, then I hate you too.

That's because there isn't one. Sometimes I post just news without any racism involved. Most of the time those posts are ignored for some reason.
