    Pure speculation, veering dangerously close to race baiting.

    Why attempt to introduce a racial controversy where none apparently exists?

    Either the whole of society agrees to stop doing that, or it's open fucking season.

    How is "the whole of society" ever going to agree about anything? :rolleyes:

    They're not. By what right do you expect any individual to lead by example when everyone else it perfectly content to be a shitty little race baiter who blams everything on someone having the wrong skin tone?

    There bad behavior justifies mine? Among the many stupid things you've said, this might just take the prize. And yes, it's wildly inconsistent with your claimed life philosophy.

    In a free society, self-expression requires no justification, and I offer none. My one and only point is that race-baiters do not get to bitch about other people employing the same tactic.

    For the people who are opposed to capital punishment, this is the kind of argument for it. It isn't about revenge. It isn't about deterrence. It is about protecting society. When there is a vicious dog you put it down because it has been ruined and will always be dangerous. You remove the threat.

    Ironically because these three are minors they cannot legally be put down.

    This is the whiny "perception is reality" argument. You're not taking some kind of righteous moral stance by not contributing to a rhetorical pissing contest.

    Actually, it's the "this is how I believe a man should comport himself" argument.

    And you're not scoring any rhetorical points by pretending to argue against what you really believe. :shrug:

    I don't know. One of those mugs looks like a white boy to me.

    Although, in fairness, they're arresting and prosecuting him right off the bat. They aren't letting them go without any charges. :cylon:

    You're right. These guys were just standing their ground against boredom.


    Prosecuting them is unjust.

    Not sure what you're point is. Only 2/3 of murdering sociopathic fuckos are black?

    I'm more at to blame the lot of them being sociopaths, personally. Even in the worst of ghettos, random shootings just out of boredom are not common--for gang initiation or out of anger about something, sure, but only a completely insane person will slaughter someone because nothing happen to be on TV that day.

    Yeah if he was alive and in a grave he probably would be rolling over. And screaming too. And I doubt it would have anything to do with society......

    I can't decide which is more pathetic, the crime, or Zombie salivating at the idea that it will spark a race war where all the mistreated whites rise up against their Black Oppressors. :dayton:

    I also find it ludicrous to indict the "black community" (if such a thing can even be said to exist) because they haven't been flooding the streets of Duncan protesting against these murderous delinquents. What exactly are they supposed to be protesting? Am I supposed to be upset that Jesse & Al haven't sprinted on down to Oklahoma to whip up some outrage? I don't want them here. The kids have been arrested. They're going to spend the rest of their natural lives at Big Mac, a fate I personally believe to be worse than death, even if it comes at taxpayer expense. Sure, at age 16 they may thumb their nose at authority and say with all the swagger and arrogance of adolescence that prison doesn't scare them, but give them another 40 years to experience the daily horrors.

    You notice how that longer paragraph is full of a lot of high-minded wallpapering and absolutely no specific claims? Yeah, me, too. It's almost as if the merits of the case are irrelevant, that only the fact that a black teenager was killed by someone who wasn't black is the only thing that matters. :brood:

    Explain to me why society or any individuals therein should be expected to attempt engaging such a person in rational discourse, let alone following their lead for anything.

    Maybe Alphaman can clear it up for me.
