I don't get it. They are complete "list of untypeable words I shall never put on Gamespot." Seriously, they are sick, twisted, and plain out stupid. It angers me so much that people would actually do that.

Awful story. Too bad Canada doesn't have the death penalty. Also:

[quote="Ottawa Citizen"]Among his favourite quotes are those from the German philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche.deepdreamer256

I blame Nietzsche.

Good call.

The kid misinterpreted him, then or looked at his quotes out of context.

When you dostuff like that you don't tellpeople. Because then people not only suspect you they know where to look for the evidence. Luckily sick twisted people are stupid too.

What the hell is wrong with people? Normally someone would mutilate and burn a body to destroy the evidence. Telling anyone you did that defeats the purpose. How could two kids be that messed up and no one notices beforehand?

These stories are unbelievable? Where do they originate from? The Inquirer?

oh ****ing christ, that's a 4 hour drive and a ferry ride from where I live. how did I not hear about this? that's disgusting.

Also, this thread makes me a bit wary of talking on WoW ever. I will regularly discuss things that should not be seen by prying GM eyes with my boyfriend when we play :/

That IS where i live...this is the first i am hearing about it...

Just like there is no rational meaning to this murder, there is no rational meaning to those teenagers' life, so there's no reason not to sentence them to death.

I support capital punishment, they're old enough to get the death penalty.

osiris667

Agreed. No one should get away with something as sickening as this.
If they are old enough to rape and murder, they are old enough to face harsher punishment.

It's not about being cold hearted or not, that doesn't have anything to do with my comment. It's about the fact that someone got raped and murdered and the fact that someone is getting raped and murdered while this thread was created, and while this comment here was being typed out, and while you're reading it right now.

BiancaDK

SO you are saying that the number of terrible things that happen in this world justifies a nonchalant attitude towards them? Sounds cold hearted to me....

Every comment in this thread is equally pointless, if pointless is what you would like to define it as. And you're right, I wouldn't say "so what?" to the families involved, but are you her family? Anyone in this thread? No? Just a bunch of kids getting emotionally worked up over something that has absolutely nothing to do with them, or, alternatively, as much to do with them as every other tragedy that goes on in the world, but isn't weeped over, isn't acted upon and only matters when brought into personal focus.

BiancaDK

Many of the comments are not pointless in the sense that they are expressing their opinions on the topic at hand. I wouldn't say your comment is pointless either, because it was obviously meant to prove a point, though your lack of initial clarification and the disrespectful manner you went about it make you sound like a real *****

Ok these kids knew exactly what they are doing. They were psychopaths that had no regrets or care what they had done.. To the point they are bragging about it.. This goes far beyond "posing".. Yet again I fail to see how this has anything to do with a video game.. Do people realize that violent crimes are going DOWN and are far lower then what they were 40 years ago? If video games causes violence shouldn't they be going up seeing as the majority of the population of teens and young adults play some form of video entertainment.

I think the sarcasm in my sig best explains how I feel about this. Anyway, people were being raped and murdered long before video games ever existed, but now parents and politicians like to use it as a scapegoat because it's easier than actually taking responsibility.

I don't think anything is directly responsible for what anyone does. Something may inspire orinfluencewhatever it is they do but it doesn't matter because it's only a matter of time until they dosomething perverse.

Are you saying killers arePsychopaths simply becausethey kill and don't care? Labeling someone a psychopath gives a bleeding heart a reason to saythey shouldn't beexecuted since they are mentally ill. A psychopath doesn't think what he has done is wrong.

Some people are capable of killing anything including humans without hesitation. Some of them just don't care, but that doesn't make them psychopaths. They're just coldblooded.What does make them psychopaths is the fact that they mutilated and burned the body. A normal person would have been surgical. Or as surgical as they could possibly be, which would depend on their efficiency.

Yet on the other hand idiots do what they do because they are idiots. They don't know any better.

Yay video games get blamed again... 30 years ago it would have been some metal bands fault, 50 years ago it would have been some rock n' roll band, 200 years ago it would have been some witch... Can't they just accept that some people are effed up and videogames/music/satan has nothing to do with them?

... some people just shouldn't be allowed into society. That's just horrible, sickening and wrong. If they get the 10 year instead of life then... well Gamespot has rules about what I can say to express myself so I'll just leave it to imagination. I really hope the bastards burn though.

"Not showing any remorse, he added that committing the brutal murder did not feel like he thought it would.:" "One of the teens said he had dreamed of killing someone since he was young." sounds like the kids had sociopathic tendencies.

A) Yes a psychopath shows no regard and has no moral compass. B) Wrong, they knew what they were doing was wrong but showed no remorse for it.. Furthermore who cares if they aren't executed? In the US execution costs far more, and just putting prison for life with out parole has the same effects AND is cheaper.

Some people are capable of killing anything including humans without hesitation.

Thats great this isn't about hesitation, a soldier doesn't hesistation but they can sitll feel remorse and regret afterwards.. A psychopath does not..

Some of them just don't care, but that doesn't make them psychopaths.

Yeah it does, thats exactly what a psychopath is all about! A complete disconnect in feeling no remorse or care what they did..

They're just coldblooded.What does make them psychopaths is the fact that they mutilated and burned the body. A normal person would have been surgical. Or as surgical as they could possibly be, which would depend on their efficiency.

A normal person WOULDN'T Have planned and killed a person! Nor would they BRAG about it and proud of it afterwards.

Yet on the other hand idiots do what they do because they are idiots. They don't know any better.

..........No they knew exactly what they were doing.. They didn't care they showed a complete disregard for it, and actually bragged about it.. Thats what psychopath does, not a stupid person.

It's a pretty tricky sig, isn't it? I'll place a line that says 'sig' on my sig soon. I'm too busy being all over the place to make that change right now.
