Now that’s a guy who deserves a concealed carry license.

This here, is what’s wrong with ‘merica... Nobody deserves to die for being an asshat. They deserve to be called an asshat.

Pretty sure they call this “Victim Blaming” over at Jezabel. Yes the Z Driver was being an annoying dick, but being an annoying dick never justifies destruction of life or property.

Got what he deserved? Seriously? Fuck you. I’m sure you have a lot in common with that truck driver - Under no circumstances should that sort of behavior provoke a life-threatening response.

You sound like a fun guy to hang out with.

“He got what he deserved”

“All I see are two equivalent assholes and one winning.”

This is astonishing. Not that Starr is a horrible person, but that’s he’s a useless attorney.

I’d guess local news is normally happy to roll over, especially if not doing so might hurt their relationship with important subjects. But apparently his handler didn’t realize that now that he’s resigned as president, Ken Starr is not important, and it’s in Baylor’s interest to shift blame to the people who have…

Ken Starr’s world:

A famous Canadian serial rapist, torturer, and murderer (of girls under age 14) is locked up for life and we found out that he’s in solitary confinement with a tv and living quite cozily. :(

Except, I think we can all agree, there are a LOT of quick-tempered, simple people out there who could make the wrong decision. Unless you’re proposing the trial system remains the same and the death penalty phase is carried out by the family? Which, smells kind of dystopian.

Perfectly put. I would turn into The Punisher from the comics if it were my kid.

Yes.

Correction: he’s just from small town, hinterlands Wisconsin. I grew up in one of those towns, and they’re full of slightly “off” types whose families dropped straight off the turnip truck about a century ago and who consider a trip to a Milwaukee Brewers game to be an adventure in danger and fancy times. A lot of it…

I used to have a job that included not allowing people to beat the shit out of each other. There were times when we broke it up a little more slowly than others. This would be one of those times.

Sadly (and I really hate to say this)...I don’t think he has special needs...I think he is just from Wisconsin

Before we pile on, are we sure this guy doesn’t have special needs?

I’m anti-death penalty as well, but if I were that dad, I’d kill that sucker in a heartbeat.

Yeah I think thats a pretty common stance though. Most people I know are probably anti death penalty but all for having child predators and sex offenders killed. I am anyways.
