We live in a world with some horrible people, folks. Just never forget, if you let them make you bitter, angry, and sad, in a way, they control you. If you let those feelings lead you to seek justice against these people, they’ll eventually lead you down the path of revenge, and soon you’ll find yourself an empty shell of your former self.
Love passionately, care deeply, seek to be intelligent, meek when necessary and strong always, willing to stand in defense of others and accept the price of death if that is what defense demands. Never stop feeling the joy in life, never ignore the simple pleasure of a blue sky and cool breeze.
And never stop feeling to avoid the pain. Feeling is what makes us human.[/quote]

American prisons are nothing compared to eastern European prisons.

Hahaha, you are funny, ill-informed, but funny. The classical stoics in the early Roman time period held the body to a very high regard. Not in the same way the Greeks did, but the Stoics DID believe in a lack of emotion and a strict discipline in making their life(or body) what they wanted it. Maybe I am more of a naturalistic stoic

Yup. That is the most scary thing of all, that man could have been anyone including you’r family and friends or even you. World is a scary place to be, only thing we can do is enjoy the good things as much as we can.

And you’re so stoic you’re going out of your way to convince me how stoic you are. Irony?
This is why we need some sort of Goon Squad to work along with the police, but somewhat out of the public knowledge. There is no way the police or the court system can provide enough justice.
It would be so much better to hear “Suspects turned up dead in a sewar, suffering similar deaths to that of their victims” than it is to hear “…life in prison”

Now I did not watch the video, as I plan to preserve my faith in humanity for as long as I can.
but let me just say, more gruesome things have happened.
they just weren’t recorded.[/quote]
That’s pretty much a given mate. My gripe is with the creepy ghouls who choose to watch this video. Especially the fucktards who come on to moan ‘oooh i just cant believe i watched that now i feel sick and ridden with guilt’
As far as I am concerned anyone who watches this video is considered an accomplice to the crime!

You should rent The Star Chamber, Michael Douglas is the main character…not a bad flick and I always loved the conept of the movie.
I watched one of the beheading video’s on a thread awhile back and I wish I haden’t but at the same time it made me appreciate the cozy life I have here compared to other parts of the big bad world.
can’t watch either, shit like this affects the soul. fuckers like these guys in the video are a malady on the planet, not like the other people walking around with good will and compassion.
they should pay for their crime but ultimately just get them the fuck off the planet.
