11 Year Old Shoots Intruder

Mordhaus says...

There are definitely a lot of legal issues, the problem is the location. I can't be reasonably certain that a jury would convict the parents and the kid is a juvi at worst, again assuming you can get a judge in that area to convict.

I would suspect the worst damage that could be done would be for the thief to sue them in civil court for pain and suffering. That is something that might actually push through the system, given the lower standard needed for victory.

But yeah, the first things that went through my head when I watched this were:

A. What kind of family leaves a loaded 9mm laying around with an 11 year old in the house?
B. Shooting at a fleeing criminal is definitely a huge no-no in any state.
C. Where the hell did the other 11 rounds go? I mean, full metal jacket rounds fucking BOUNCE when they hit anything remotely hard. I've shot them before at an outdoor range and watched them hit the backing wrong and veer wide of the berm, I cringe at thinking where they were ricocheting with Billy the Kid popping them off like caps.

What?!? The kid didn't start shooting until the robber was outside the home and running away...and he's NOT being charged with attempted murder? WTF?!?
You can't shoot someone who's fleeing in the back. Period. Even in Florida. By the time the kid started firing wildly into his neighborhood, missing with 11 the first shots, he had absolutely no legal right to be shooting at all. This wasn't a stand your ground or threatening intruder situation when he started shooting.
This kid needs to be prosecuted, as does his family for leaving loaded firearms where children can get them.
I agree with @Januari , this entire story is disgusting.

What is his major malfunction!?!

I've loved him as an actor since Full Metal Jacket. If you don't know it's him, you would never recognize him. Amazing transformation.

Why Tipping Should Be Banned

Fairbs says...

My thoughts on tipping...
I'll start off by saying that these come from a U.S. person.
It seems like older generations tip less or maybe it's as you get older you realize you need to hang onto your money more.
A piece of advice passed onto me that I believe in is that if you can't afford to tip then you shouldn't be going out.
I tend to tip 10% for fair / poor service, 15% for normal / expected, and 20% or more for good. Tip jar places, I'll give a buck most of the time and not a percentage and this is also true for pick up orders.
I'm not sure why, but even if I get shitty service, I still tip. I don't go back, but the message is that even without giving decent service you still get a tip and I don't agree with that so I need to stop tipping crap service.
The places I go to a lot, I tend to tip more because you get to know the people that work there and they are more apt to know what I want almost without asking.
I believe in tipping as an incentive system and don't think they should get rid of it.
Individual places set up how tips are distributed. I think it's old school places where the waitress (waiter) tips out the busboy and cook and whoever else helps them provide better service. This makes sense to me as incentive. Another method is the pooling of tips and splitting them out evenly. This doesn't make sense since someone may not carry their own weight and be rewarded for that. There are other methods to curb that behavior. Full Metal Jacket comes to mind. I think the business itself can take a cut of the tips which to me seems pretty lame unless the owners are actively providing service.
In Oregon, service people get minimum wage (no waiter wage) so with tips, you can actually make a really solid living.
I always thought the smartest people in this trade are the ones that work at high class joints. 20% of a 10$ tab is 2$, but 20% of a 100$ tab is 20$ and that's some payola for likely a comparable amount of service.
For the math challenged, an easy way to figure out ~20% is to take the first two digit of the tab, multiply by 2, and then move the decimal one to the left. So for a 56.78 bill... 56 * 2 = 112... 11.2 or 11.20 tip.

NEVER Throw A Firecracker Into A Manhole!

"Aye Aye Sir"

Yogi says...

>> ^Skeeve:

I love hearing comments about "boot camp" from people who have never been near the military.
There are quite a few reasons why people don't punch their drill instructors. In my experience, the people with "tough guy" attitudes who think they wouldn't stand for that treatment lose that attitude pretty damn quickly.
Most recruits, as @enoch pointed out, are already scared shitless from being away from home for the first time. Those with a little more life experience realize that its a game you have to play to become a soldier/sailor/airman and would be just as likely to attack their drill instructor as they would be to attack their interviewer for a desk job.
And they all know that if they make things more difficult than they actually are (argue, don't give it your all, etc.) the staff are going to make the whole group go through hell and they will be hated by their whole platoon.
Plus, these aren't conscripts, they are there because they want to be there, or they have no other option. Doing something stupid, like attacking an instructor because he yelled at them, is only going to make things worse.
>> ^TheGenk:
A perfect example of why I did alternative civilian service rather than serve in the military; a few seconds into this the instructor would have been lying on the ground and I would have gone to the brig for punching a superior officer.

>> ^hpqp:
When I got the gist of the video I waited through the whole minute of it for Sgt A. Hole to get a gun butt to the gums. I am disappoint.

>> ^Kofi:
Just wait til they meet in the toilets after. Someones gonna go full metal jacket on his ass.



These points don't change the fact that you are all scum! Maggots who don't deserve to be in my beloved Core!
