Precisely Bardock.
Why feel sad? You're admitting he did it all himself. Why feel sorry for someone who asked for death and got it?
Try feeling sorry for someone who didn't want death and got it anyway.

Holy cow really? I think this may be a no win argument for both of us. I see sadness in the loss of human life. No matter who it may be. You dont. Thats fine. Just 2 different points of view that are miles and miles apart I guess. Wont be a resolution to this.
My only problem was the way Matt insulted JP as a way of defending his opinion, I do think that you all have valid comments and I agree that the kid was stupid, irresponsible and that the outcome, although unfortunate, could have been a lot worse.
My initial response to this thread was that it was an unfortunate chain of events.
The reason I added to that was because I felt Matt was out of line in unsulting JP personally.

Well. Mostly. Of course that kid probably didn't really want to die, but I think someone that doesn't want to die should maybe, just maybe behave a little different.
My previous post was prior to you adding the rest.

Kerrie, it was a refreshing change of pace for someone else to see what was behind that line of defense. AC did as well.
The thing though is that he didn't only insult you, he also added a valid point. You all jsut chose to ignore it. I guess that'S your line of defense then.
Scooter has a long running grudge against JP. JP and I have never personally got on but if you're going to choose to lace your posts with blatant personal insults, then you shouldn't really complain if your valid point is overlooked, and that applies to everyone.
Either way, I shut that whole deal down. Let's not raise it again.

Bardock, who pissed in your Post Toasties this morning? You seem to be inclined to continue that particular argument. It's not gonna happen, give it up man.
You are funny....really...first Syren and you decide that the arguement is now over, that you were right...scooter is an idiot, but if someone replies to this silly agreement you pretend that they are the one keeping the arguement alive. Funny, I am laughing.

Alright that's my last post towards that, but Scooter wasn't the one to start the insults. Just for the record, it just got out of hand, but no one of those two is to blame particularly.
