You can't fix "stupid".


I've seen it done quite a number of times. =)

Well.. in people anyways. Stupidity will always exist somewhere, I suppose.
 
how much you want to bet that PS3 is going to be perpetual "evidence" stored at the police station break room.

yes, cause hating rapists, murderers, and robbers is such a horrible thing... :| idiot...

Well i was referring to the first part of the statement where you said "Good riddance to bad genes"...idiot.

He got suspended for saying practically the same thing about some dude that killed himself. Double standard much? But because Ele's e-peen is through the roof nobody gives a shit what off-color comments he can come up with right? Ok.
 
Meh, I shouldn't post when groggy and grumpy...

According to that report of the story, the police who knocked at the door had seen a picture of the suspect holding a gun with friends. That's why the campus police opted to call in a special team instead of doing the search themselves.

Also according to the story, every student+professor was sent the video of a parking lot surveillance camera, asking if anyone knew who's car it was that followed the victim.

Given the robbery, picture with guns, and knowing that they had been sent the surveillance video (even if they didn't bother to watch), past assault charges, and the fact they didn't answer the door right away even though the police clearly heard activity (aka: could easily be looking for a gun before comming to door), it becomes understandable how a person could mistake a ps3 controller for a gun, and having not even a whole second to react to decide whether to shoot first or see if he does.

I definatly don't think he deserved to be shot over just a robbery, but at the same time, I don't think the policemen should be reprimanded for it.

This is actually all wrong. And the school here is making the newspaper send out an apology for this information. First off, a video was NOT sent to everyone about this. He did not have a gun. He was on his way to answer the door when the cops busted it down, scared his dog, so he ran to get his dog and the cops then shot him and his dog. He does not have a record of assault or anything. The story you read is total bullshit

he was a piece of shit, whether he deserved to die for this ornot is arguable, but the type of person who does this has probably rung up a string of things like this and stopping him now stops his future victims from suffering.

Again completly wrong, stop saying shit about something you know nothing at all about. He has never been to jail and never been accused of anything. Yes what he did a few weeks ago was shitty...if he even did it, he was a suspect, and thats all. But to generalize his whole life based on one incident is wrong. Im sure everyone here has done things they regret doing now.
And Ele...I dont take back anything I said about you. To say he should be 'tortured' and 'executed' for a robbery is disgusting. I agree that its very wrong and he should serve time in jail for it...but to be tortured and killed is nasty. People like are are ruining this world just as bad. Im sure you're all for the war and probably want to nuke everybody. I somewhat I agree with rape or murder....but robbery? No.

Most religions are also bullshit, based upon bullshit, or so superficial it's probably bullshit.



Should have told that "good kid" posing as a "gangsta'", assaulting others, and stealing is bad, mmmkay?

I didnt know he was a suspect until after he was killed. And if he really did Im sure people told him, considering it is the only bad thing to this extent he has done in his life.
 
Sorry I forgot to say something to Ele...
If you say somebody who robbed is ruining this country and should be killed for it....then I guess you also think that racist people or cheaters should be killed too? They can be said are ruining this country so I guess they should all be tortured and executed too right? Dont get me wrong, I dont like racist people, but I dont think they should be tortured and executed....but I guess you do. And cheaters are ruining this country too...and I bet half this country has cheated before...and as Lego says...once you do it once you always will do it...so I guess they should all be killed too. There goes half our country...thats what Elle wants.
 
Elemmire, what do genes have to do with anything. Last time I checked there was no such thing as a Rapist gene, or a Murderer gene. You can't look at a family tree and be like "oh that family tree all have the rapist gene, passed on from generation to generation!"

Could you imagine that father/son talk?

Father: Son, I've got some bad news.
Son: What's up dad?
Father: Son, you're a rapist.
Son: What!? I'm six years old, I don't even like girls yet!
Father: You will son, you will. My father was a rapist, and his father, and his father too.
Son: Daddy...?
Father: Yes, son. And that's the real reason Mommy cries at night.

Most people that choose crime stay in crime. Go look at the career criminals doing time, and look at the one time offenders. The one time offenders are usually murders/rapists, while robbers/thiefs are repeat. Some guy robbed my house, he was out in 2 weeks. He was back out robbing people, eventually he got shot and ended up in a wheelchair.

I know tons of scumbags that would plot like this, and if all of them were to be wiped off the face of the earth I wouldn't shed a tear. Have I known them since we started school? Yes. Have I been out there with them doing bad? Yes. Does their offense constitute execution? In the eyes of the law no, but that same law keeps these people on the streets because of wanting to keep drug addicts incarcerated.

So basically you just said you should be executed. You said you were out there doing it with them and then believe they should be executed...smart one arnt you?
Also, most people is not every person. If you dont know this guy whatsoever then you have no right to say this person will be like the people you know.
Again, if you think robbers are ruining this world and should be killed, then you must also think racist or cheaters or sexist people should all be killed too. If everybody thought as you do, then the world would no longer exist. People with different religous views would be trying to kill eachother because they think the others are ruining the world. Lets just welcome back the Nazi's because basically they had the same feelings you have, just against different people.

it'd prolly be more like half the planet if it really is true that so many are so horrible. If it were the rapists, murders, robbers (I guess their would be exceptions, those that rob truly because there is no other way to save themselves or another good person and they need to food, clean water, medical supplies, or whatever), cheaters (as in adulterers and those that constantly cheat over and over and cheat people outta money, possessions, whatever.. children who cheat well.. I'd give them a break since they are young and their minds are still developing but if they constantly cheat in their teens knowing its wrong and even proud of it...), racists.. honestly.. I wouldn't shed a tear. There are 6 billion+ of us... if it was true that half or more of our species was so.. horrible, well then, good riddance to those bad apples. I wouldn't care, even if it turned out some of my close friends or family were like that (which means they prolly hid it from me). I, honestly, don't think I'd have a problem in that category. I've never stolen, last time I cheated I was a child and I stopped after cause I felt horrible, never murdered, never raped, never against any race or sex. However, if I was like that, the me I am now, would be quite ok with myself dying just as long as the species would get rid of the bad. Hopefully, after that, people might instill good on their children.. honestly though.. if there was a purge every.. like.. 10-20 years of those immoral dishonoral indecent people.. I would not care.

There are limits to forgiveness.. some things, truly are not forgivable.
 
You should do some research on the brackgrounds of the people who commit those "unforgivable" crimes. Look into the psycology of it. Most of those people CAN be helped. I've known a lot of people who have straightened up and become decent people because they got the help they needed.

When a man goes to court for beating his wife, he isn't put on death row. They usually require that he goes to theorpy. There are good reasons for this.
 
My condolences are with you Bamdam, sorry to hear about that. :(

well thats just gross. You have a sick mind, I think you would have fit in very very well as a Nazi.
 
When a person becomes a criminal stays criminal
You tell yourself thats the last time i'll rob someone, and next thing you know you go out there robbing people

I'm sorry he got shot and stuff, but first, he should never involved in any criminal act, and second, should never rob anyone in the first place and something like this won't happen, You can't blame the police, you can't blame everyone but yourself.

Anything you do at present time will have an effect in the future

example: Stright A's from 1st grade to 12th grade = You'll get into better college and hell a lot of scholorship later in in future

Always think ahead before you do anything

It's not Nazism. It's just an ancient way of thinking. Ages ago people would be sentenced to death for stealing a piece of fruit. A lot of cultures had "eye for an eye" in their justice system. I use to be somewhat satisfied with the evolution of the justice system in America until I heard about all the torture stuff .

Also an ancient way of thinking. It's very simplistic and horribly flawed and straight out wrong in most cases.
