"For me, immoral acts generally arise when there's a question of harm - theft, violence, emotional abuse etc. In fact I'd generally say the most evil acts perpetrated by human beings always start with the simple act of treating people like things instead of people." Ok, I wasn't putting my opinion out there to initiate a long debate about it. To me, you either get it or don't. I agree w/your framework. I'll add this test to it, though: [I]Would I want this person around my young children? Would I want my children to like/trust/want to emulate him/her?

"His was a completely valid question and you ducked it...." I didn't duck a thing. I stated my personal opinion. I didn't state it to (from my perspective) argue the obvious. "Of course we have to ask .. how can we know where YOUR Moral Compass points?" My opinion tells you that. Are you intentionally being obtuse? Oh wait, this is SC. Never mind ...

"Is that line drawn by religious fanatics in the Middle-East who believe women should be completely clothed from head to toe? No; we certainly don't want THAT level of religious fanaticism. That's not "Christian," so we go a step further away from that, but honestly, what is the freakin' difference as long as it's being dictated by some "religious" group?" You've got the wrong guy . I don't believe in ANY organized religions. Like I'd let a bunch of closet pedophiles dictated my moral compass ... Them, or any of the other fictionally-based belief systems in the world. That's definitely not why I disapprove. We do agree on the evils of corporate America, though.

"There better be. If crybaby goody two-shoes fundies ruin my porn viewing I am gonna bring back the whole "feed 'em to the lions" thing" Wacky Aussie slang ? What the Heck is a "Fundie"??? About those Lions, Grue. We didn't let our Govt. take away our guns, & I'm no lamb. A lot of lions, & people hiding behind them, would go before me.

"What's immoral is are assholes who try and tell people what they can and cannot do with their own body." I never said I had the right to tell her not to do that. Only that I disapprove, & am glad consequences will follow her choices. Don't worry, Grue. There will still be plenty of porn for you to spend hours viewing ...

For some reason, I thought your saying 100% disabled = quadriplegia. There are numerous Amputees who jump.

When I cough, & clear my throat. You can hear it. but it doesn't mean a thing. Those numbers are either just as meaningless, or they're inside data for L&B. I was told by L&B that Optimas don't have serial numbers.

Who is the one you know of? When did they get their D? USPA will have the information you're looking for. Have you sent them a query?

The Cossacks must be real proud. They beat up women ... I know it won't happen, but I wish the world would just up & walk out of the Olympics over Kiev.

I don't do religion. I'll just add this to the "Doesn't make a lot of sense to Me" pile.

What exactly is handling a venomous Snake supposed to do for these people? I mean, does the snake whisper spiritual growth in their ears? Or, does Mr.Snake not bite them only if they're pure of faith? In other words....WTF ?!

"Airtight Pic - Biggest, prettiest Hangar in Oklahoma & those houses weren't there in the background ten years ago when we were building it." Nice Houses there in the background, & awfully close... Out of curiosity, do any of the Owners call & bitch about the noise?

Can't find the story, but this reminds me of a radio DJ in Thailand (?), years ago. He was wearing a Buddhist amulet during a live broadcast, & told a Thai soldier to shoot him w/his AK. He believed the amulet would protect him from harm. The Soldier shot him in the chest. It was the DJ's last broadcast...

Are You sure that's the case in Florida, too? Different States have different rules & procedures.
-
Sorry Don, but I view your scenarios as being a million miles off. The insecure, fat Sack in Florida opened fire simply because he didn't like the look/sound of those kids. He didn't have the right to brandish, let alone shoot. I'm glad he was convicted. I'm only trying to understand the mistrial where there's 100% proof that he shot the kid.
-
From the story I read, it was a hung jury on the murder charge. The judge sent them back to deliberate on a lesser (2nd) charge, but they still came back "hung." So he wasn't acquitted on the murder charge, it was a mistrial. And the prosecutor plans on retrying it. I saw that too, but still don't get it. Second Degree = not premeditated, right? Is that not what this Guy did? How can Someone be convicted of attempted murder for firing on people, but not guilty for the one person he actually hit ?? Was an option of Manslaughter what was needed by the jury?
-
"Jim won quite a few of them but they were awful, so a lot of times they weren't claimed." Don't kid yourself. He secretly gave them to Noobs, to fatten them for the slaughter. Tastes just like Chicken ...

Twardo & his ilk aren't known for being picky eaters. Don't tempt Fate ...
-
I'm not judging the jury. I'm asking if the DA limited them too much in possible conviction options.
-
Hardly. This Guy opened fire on them simply because he didn't like them. He felt so upset & endangered by the shooting, that he drove back to the B&B, & ordered a pizza... He never even bothered calling the police. I don't think you'll find anyone, aside from his paid lawyer, willing to defend his actions. Perhaps the Lawyers here could chime in. Who dropped the ball in this case? First Degree is premeditated, correct? Didn't the Jury also have the option of convicting this sack of 2nd degree, instead? He fired on the vehicle, killing someone. How the f#*& is He NOT guilty of murder ???

Count your blessings, Dom. Back in Airtwardo's day, Noobs were made to buy beer. Then, they were roasted on the bonfire as a free source of protein . Nowadays, They just screw w/your head a little, like by feigning sleep on the way up .
