Exactly the way you think that it would be okay to kill the two girls, or people like them.
No. Everyone loves him.Quote:

But everywhere only mentions two.
Philip Defranco talks about the video: YouTube - Bree Olson Wins the INTERNET! & everything else that mattered (4.25.11)
Why do so many people insist that only "the old lady" tried to help. There was one guy throughout the entire video trying to break it up (the one others assume is the manager?)
Am I missing something?
I would definitely want the punks fired and sued, possibly serve some jail time for instigating/encouraging/enjoying! the attack.
It makes me sad to see stuff like this still happening. Where's human decency?
Firstly: Anybody here who reckons this wasn't a hate crime needs to die instantaneously and reincarnate into something intelligent. Secondly: I seriously hope that all who were a part of this attack (yes, that includes all who encouraged it) are swiftly punished. Those who were physically part of it should be removed from this earthly existence immediately so that they can explain their vile actions to their maker, who will then deliver a fate worse than death. Those who egged the attack on should experience what happened from the transgenders perspective, in full detail, both emotionally and physically.
I agree. Some people think he didn't do enough. But he probably thought he would get sued if he did anything more than what he did.Quote:

Shit like this ends up happening.
Chill, dude. The girl already said it wasn't because she was transgender. She said the girl told her "not to look at her man" or something like that. It was in the video someone posted.Quote:

It would definitely make people see things from the other persons perspective.
The exception would be murder though I guess. Those people should just be put in jail.
The problem with this would be people who are actually innocent being found guilty of something they didn't do. The way we do things now, the person found guilty would go to jail for however long a time. Which, if you're innocent, isn't good, but it's not the worst things that could happen. But if we use the system mentioned above, someone who is accused of rape, but is actually innocent, would be raped for no good reason at all.Quote:

This is just my opinion of what I think is "fair". And for what it's worth, yes, I am still a heavy supporter of the death penalty. Just not for the women in the video.Quote:

this 2 bitches , i would kill them :@ . . .
I think the fact that you support the death penalty should require swift execution so that you don't persuade anyone else to think the same.Quote:

I think that instead of spending about 25,000 bucks a year making lawbreakers suffer, we should be treating first-, second-, and third- time offenders with psychiatric therapy and behavior modification, in addition to making them do a whole lot of community service to make up for their crimes. Only repeat offenders should be incarcerated. Of course, however, they will have to be initially incarcerated until their punishment and treatment is figured out.
I'm not sure, but allow me to put forward a question to you. Will quietly eliminating repeat offenders from the face of the planet make society even more violent? If so, how?? This seems to be the notion some of you are implying and I fail to see how someone in Missouri that's injected with a lethal poison would somehow prompt someone in Idaho to kill another person.Quote:

lol, I was making a point about your view on this matter. I disagree with the death penalty. You agree with it. I think you should be put to death for agreeing with putting people to death. How do you then take that ^^^^ comment seriously?Quote:

I know that you're gonna say "they lost that right when they did [insert whatever thing you think deserves the death penalty here]"
I would really like to see your face as you watch someone die right in front of you. Do you know why they put a mask over the persons face before they execute them?
If they didn't there would be very few people who could actually kill the person. IT de-humanises them.
You think you support the death penalty, but you don't. Because you don't know what it actually involves, you're removed from it.
I've seen you say this before. I don't believe I said anything prick-ish. So you're probably beginning to realise I am correct.Quote:

"Who cares whether they actually did it? The government must have their reasons."
That is how it would make society more violent.
Even if all the evidence of the case is shown to the public. (In case "quietly eliminating" was just a bad choice of words).
We would hear and/or see people being killed all the time. We would become desensitised to killing people.
How can that NOT make people more violent?
Yes. By eliminating them we already become more violent with just that act. This then influences how the people involved feel and act, the feel like it is ok for them to be violent as long as the superior says it's ok or that it's good to go by the policy of an eye for an eye. Having the need for vengeance makes society more violent.Quote:

It doesn't make society more violent as directly as many other things that are considered ok in our culture, but it does on some level increase aggressive thought which leads to aggressive action.
On top of this many people are wrongly executed.
Do you trust the government in it's current form to hold the power to "quietly eliminate" people? The government can't even manage it's money, they're more irresponsible than I am.
But what this really boils down to is compassion. I feel like most people who commit violent crimes do so because they have psychological issues and live in very fucked up society. And by fucked up I mean aggressive. We all collectively create this violence by creating the kind of living environment that we have. Personally I believe it's time for a change. We can stop living like this. We can stop glorifying greed, superficiality and power. Personally I think the only way to do this is by changing radically on an individual level. If we are to decrease violence and aggression in our society we have to do it by treating the disease, not the symptoms.
This is basically what i said. I agree. But I think, everyone has the symptoms, just some have it worse than others.Quote:

I think people on here that are saying they support the death penalty are the exact ones that i talked about earlier. Scared/heartless people, that just want to remove the "bad people" from society so they can feel so safe in their little worlds. I've seen more compassion in jail than in society. *sigh*. Who are you to decide if someone lives or dies.
