Dr. Boogie Yeah, he died in the hospital. Now, they're looking into whether or not the girl in the car was killed by him, or possibly by the crossfire during the shootout with the cops.

ScruU2wice someone told me he's dead now? I got nothingto back it up though.

Emu Sounds good to me.

maggiekarp How about we just call it eloquent retarded?

Immortal Goat I get his point, but to sound rational doesn't neccesarily mean that it IS rational. Like I said before, it is anything BUT rational to continue with untrue beliefs when faced with actual facts.

kahljorn I think what he's saying is that there's a difference between:

GAYS SUCK BECAUSE THEY ARE GAY AND THEY MAKE THE WORLD SUCK

and

Gays pollute the social atmosphere and suffer from mental instability... or whatever.

The later sounds rational, even if it's "Untrue" or misguided, while the prior just sounds stupid and void of any thought.
Feb 6th, 2006 03:30 PM
Immortal Goat I guess I am confusing those two. I dunno. Still, wouldn't it be considered irrational to ignore all actual proof against your previously rational mindset? That's what I am getting at.

It uses flawed reasoning, and therefor is not rational. It is about as rational as saying that Black people shouldn't breed because they are more succeptible to becoming criminals. Sure, statistically, it is true, but it isn't because they are black, and to deny them the right to family would be irrational.

It wasn't meant as an insult. It was meant to be more of a truthful observation. If you were insulted by it, then that sounds like a personal problem to me. Quit with your "victim" mentality and see things for what they are. Baby.
You're confusing "rational" with "correct." Something can be based on flawed reasoning and still be rational; the flawed reasoning just makes it WRONG, not irrational.

Summourn "An 18-year-old suspect in hatchet attacks and shootings at a Massachusetts gay bar was captured Saturday after a gunfight, but not before two people were dead. Officials say Jacob Robida killed an Arkansas police officer during a traffic stop and a woman in his car as police closed in. Robida was in critical condition after being shot by officers."

Immortal Goat Ahh, ok. Well, I disagree that it is rational, seeing as how there are plenty of sources refuting his claims. Still, it is more rational than "Because God said they are evil".
Feb 3rd, 2006 05:38 PM
Emu I said it was rational, not that it was right. He seems to have a genuine concern that homosexuality causes promiscuity, drug dependence and disease, and, while I don't believe it does personally, he's justified in believing that if he thinks those things are true. That doesn't make him right, though.

Rational reason? I must have missed that part in the previous threads. What is his rational reason for hating homosexuals? Seriously, I want to know. This isn't me being a smartass or anything. I just want to know.

Oh, and I love how Vince pops out of the woodwork every now and again to post something so completely useless that it somehow lowers everyone's opinion of him even more, surprising everyone with the fact that can still go lower at all.

On topic: This is disgusting. Has there been an arrest yet? I'm looking forward to the inevitable interview with this guy, too, just so I can read what this guy has to say about what he did.

mburbank One man's indoctrination is another mans exposure to information, li'l Johnny Backwards.

KevinTheOmnivore Tolerance and acceptance are two different things.
Feb 3rd, 2006 12:59 PM
Kulturkampf Teach tolerance? Sure. But I dislike the idea that the teaching of tolerance becomes an indoctrination into believing all people who think homosexuality is wrong are backwards. That is wrong.

We can never prevent these sorts of crimes because they are senseless acts of aggression.

This is not politics, but a crime story that is shocking.

Nothing to debate.
See, I don't know if you noticed, but this is also a news board. Yes, it's shocking, and it's news, and I think it does make an important point about tolerance. Did I say it was indicative of anything about you? No. I didn't comment on it at all. I've said it before, and I'll say it again: Get down from the cross, please.

My opinion:

It is too bad that we have a youth so helplessly led astry, and it is too bad that we have people so badly wounded by his poor actions and decisions -- I hope good can somehow come out of the situation.
Like I said, situations like these are why I think it's important to teach tolerance of homosexuals (and everybody; this could have been a bar full of African Americans and the situation would have been equally tragic.)
