15 year old boy slaughters his family

Normal. "Normal". NORMAL.

That word there, pay attention to it.

Not being "normal", to Rogue Jedi, does not mean it's insane. Something not being normal to ANYBODY doesn't necessarily make it insane.

My point is, people shouldn't immediately go "THEY'RE INSANE!". The more you pull that card, the less we're actually going to learn about this kind of criminal.

Hehe, I bet I sound like a Conservative now.

And even more who have been deemed completely whacko.

I'm pretty sure it's just the opposite actually.

"Whackos" often lack the ability to plan out a crime (despite what L&A or CSI will tell you) so they're usually responsible only for spontaneous emotionally driven killings. Considering that sane people have all manner of reasons and ways to kill people (not to mention that there are a lot more of them) I find it hard to believe that a majority of killers are found to be insane or mentally unfit to stand trial.

Well first of all, let's examine a basic scenario.

A serial killer is put away because he is a danger to society and his crimes are, to most, "f*cked up". He is not definitely mental just because he did "f*cked up" things, people need to remember that there's a difference, but because it's "f*cked up", people assume you'd HAVE to be mental to do it.

Exactly. If most of them were "f***ed up", they would not go to prison, jail, etc. They would go to a mental institution for the criminally insane. 😐

Exactly what is your argument? This is what you said to me 1 page ago.

Let me try...

I afraid I'm going to have to ask you to provide evidence that "There are plenty of killers who have been deemed completely mentally stable, by professionals...". 😐

You don't actually have an argument, do you?

Important Topical Question (That Will Probably Be Ignored)

What will you accomplish by punishing people unreasonably that do things you don't like?

[edit]Uhhh...that doesn't make sense because I didn't say that one page ago. Are you sure you edited your post right?[/edit]

LOL!!! I saw your post before you edited it...I guessed you realized that it wasn't the "grouchy smartass" that you like to portray on teh forumz, didn't you? You originally said something about the two questions and how they are compared to each other and that not being your point or something...I was a little surprised that it wasn't the typical "grouchy smartass" comment that you like to put out there...so I can understand the edit.

Because you have to ask about my "argument", you missed my point for asking the question in the first place. 😐

We are now on page five, that quote is from page four.

No, I just missed out a question mark by accident, before the edit. I'm not sure whose post you were reading.

Still doesn't make any sense. I need you to go through all my posts in this thread and quote the one you were referring to. The burden of proof is on you because you accused.

You're right. My bad. Forgive me because I was posting while at work and I guess I lost my place....this is the post I was referring to:

Well there are plenty. I don't know if there are more or less than those who've been deemed mentally unstable, that's why I wouldn't claim that there were more.

It didn't make sense that you would reply to my post more than once so I could have sworn that this was your original reply to my question and you edited your post with another portion of my question in it....I got a call from a lady who needed TLS security enabled in her IE to be able to run a "home grown" app right (I know you don't care...but she didn't have the appropriate rights to edit her Internet options) as I was reading your post and then work was "out" after I got her fixed up so I lost my place.

The one I was referring to was the one I quoted. I quoted it because you seemingly changed your argument. One minute you seemed to be arguing that you believed more killers to be mentally unstable than stable, then the whole argument changed and you seemed to argue the exact opposite.

I may be wrong, but that's the way you've presented your side of the debate, as one that seemingly changes to the winning side.

And that is why you are wrong. I never argued that. My original argument was about RJ getting ideals pinned on him that he wasn't arguing about. I also agreed that your point on the interpretation of insanity.

You missed the point of my question to you about killers and their mental stability. Do you know why I asked you that question now or do you need me to explain it?

Which question would that be?

I already answered it. Plus, that's not a question, it's a request.

Wow... this thread has grown. I thought it'd die out in no time.

The term is "deep-seated," you goddamn morons.

EDIT: Also, I'm pretty sure that it's more normal to eat dogs than it is to treat them like minor deities (like we in civilized countries do, rather than the savages of the East).

Language, Zeal...

I'm using it, yes.
