Totally pointless and useless comment is totally pointless and useless.

The end does not justify the means.
If we start forming special lines at airports for anyone that might be Muslim or Arab, who else should we be singling out for that treatment? What about Irishmen?
A very, very small % of the Arabs or Muslims in the world have actually blown up planes. There's 1.5 BILLION Muslims on the planet. How many have blown up planes? 20? Statistically speaking... how close is that to 0%?

Amazing that people like this can remember to breathe.. Just how far can we go into denying evident and verifiable facts so that we don't "offend" someone?
Half of AIDS infected Americans are Blacks, yet they are roughly 15% of the population.
White Europeans are more likely to be serial killers than any other ethnic group.
Muslims, mostly Arabs, are responsible for almost all transnational terrorist attacks in the past 20 years.
My guess is that most people are only "offended" by two of the last statements. Why must we completely ignore any racial data we have?
It's akin to directing half of breast cancer awareness efforts to men just because they're half the population. Yes, men CAN get breast cancer, but would it really be the most efficient prevention effort?

Allan is a thief.
Allan is black.
All blacks are thieves.

Yeah, definitely have to agree on suit-guy... there was something very serial-killer about him.


Umm.. I dunno about serial killer. That's a bit extreme. Definitely a creepy douchebag asshole though. His attire proves it... Or at least reinforces it.

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

haha, only if I become a serial killer and decide to track each of you down and kill you in bizarre ways - dropping a rusty flour sifter as my calling card - leaving the police scratching their heads unable to determine what ties all the deaths together ... hmmm. Sounds like a job for a Sheriff Lobo Quincy tag team special episode.




>> ^dotdude:

So dag, should we expect film about YOU and The Sift?

"When did you choose not to be a serial killer?"

"Erm... I didn't."

"So clearly being a serial killer is not a choice."


I support gay rights, but I don't think the logic espoused in this video is really worth anything. If people see homosexuality as a deficiency, then it's just one of many aberrant behaviors that people choose not to have _by default_.

This is one of those songs that if you slowed it down a little and added in some ambient effects, it'd be that creepy song you hear as the camera pans down into a serial killer's basement.

So...UPVOTE!

QM, only you could make "helping people" sound like something only a mentally retarded, serial killer would want to do.

I'm kind of flabbergasted that you still haven't figured out that most of us already know these things, and they aren't what we are talking about. Still, if you must rant...>> ^dystopianfuturetoday:

Killing innocent creatures for fun is evil, whether the innocent creature is a baby, a pet kitty, a pet puppy or a pet bunny. Also, baby killing and pet killing are not mutually exclusive. Torturing animals is a common trait among serial killers. I'm kind of flabbergasted that these arguments have to be made.

Moral Gradients for the Obvious Impaired

Not killing a pet > Killing a pet
Killing a pet > Killing a baby
Killing 1 baby > Killing 2 babies
Killing 2 babies > Blowing up an elementary school full of kids
Blowing up an elementary school full of kids > the Holocaust

Might I remind your honor and gentle ladies and men of the jury that I only killed one baby. It's not like I killed 6 million Jews or anything like that. -AnimalsForCrackers on trial after he put a baby in a trash can

^Is this what you are getting at?

Some people hate cats. I know, my Internet friends, this is hard to believe - but I have met them. Usually they are people with allergies, a sand box in their backyard or with a phobia of toxoplasmosis.


Some people hate a kind of animal. These people are usually referred to as idiots or morons. Hate, seriously? I mean I don't like rats, but I'm not gonna go out of my way to harm one if it means no harm to me. I certainly don't hate rats, why would I? The actions of this woman were more likely motivated by her psychosis and not by a dislike for cats. Look at how she pets the cat before she throws it into the bin. If I didn't know any better I'd say she's a late blooming serial killer in the making.

so a serial killer may be insane?
/shock
what i found most profound about this video was not her obvious insanity,nor the causality of the insanity but rather that they gave her a clean bill of mental health the day prior.
the fact that she compared her plight to jesus does not trouble me but that fact that supposed professional psychiatrists found her sane...does.

Life is not like GTA 4 where you can just walk into a store and pick up a gun if you're a criminal. It's not like a Hollywood action movie where bad guys are armed to the teeth with sub machine guns, sniper rifles and atomic bombs, and the only thing that'll stop them is Bruce Willis or Mel Gibson taking up arms and shooting the living crap out of them.

There are gun restrictions in my country, where you need to register your weapon and buy ammo through specialized shops who keep track on how much you get. You need to get a hunting license and maintain it in order to legally buy and keep your weapon. You also can't have as many guns as you want, nor whatever kind you want.
Now, this is by no means necessarily the reason why the crime rate is lower here than in the states, because it's such a complicated issue that you can't just point to one single thing as the decisive factor. However, the majority of our lesser crimes (and I can imagine most of the more serious ones) are gun-free. I'm just saying that restrictive gun laws doesn't mean you simply take the weapons from law abiding citizens and hand them over to the mob, serial killers and bank heist rings.
