Manslaughter charge for bloke who killed tagger

[Ixion]

If the red neck tag fits...

If you want to kill people who tag your garage or front fence, irritating that may be, then I'm not going to stop you. Just don't expect any suppport from me or the justice system if you're caught.

Something equally tiresome is a childish habit of not putting a space after punctuation, particularly fullstops.

No.I do not want to kill people who tag my garage or front fence. I just want to stop them.And not get killed myself in the process.Which means arming myself to the level I (reasonably) expect they will be armed to.

And,spaces cost.Are you not aware there is a world recession on?

on the radio news... guy hears his van start up last night, runs outside and gets a beating from 2 guys

[PrincessBandit]

My point is just that the guy fucked up, fucked up big time. Raised the stakes and now everybody pays.

A severe beating would have sorted it.

Hmmm, and if he'd died from the beating?........outcome still the same.

You have to play the odds.....

Stabbing someone in the heart carries a much higher chance of death then hitting someone with a bat.

You stab someone in the chest when you want to kill them.....Crack someone with a bat, they get the message loud and clear.

YEAH mate !!

It's very unfortunate, for both of them, that the kid died.

Pffft.
True.
Especially if they are dead.

No one cares. Everybody expects stuff like that to happen.

People only act shocked when a law abiding citizen beats the shit out of/kills a criminal.

Yeah, Nice work, Remove the guts of it and go ppfffttt.

Couple questions for ya genius.

Why do you cops hit people with batons rather then carry knives and stab people in the chest?

If someone confronts you with a knife and sticks it in your chest, what's running through your mind?, Holy fuck this guy is trying to kill me?

Becaaaaauuse cops are trained to hit only where it will hurt, not kill so no whackes to the head.

And they don't use knives 'cos it would take ages to hose the resulting blood from the rear of the patrol car.


Oh, and in answer to the question I have omitted from the quote: You also have to consider the intention of the knife wielder - not just the likely victim.

You should enter politics when you tire of handing out tickets, Completely evasive nonsense rather then facing the facts.

Here you go,real answers, study them.

The reason you use batons is because the odds of killing someone are far less then if you went around stabbing people in the chest.

and, If someone confronted you and stabbed you in the chest then hell yes you would come to the conclusion they were trying to kill you, If you had your stab proof vest on then your conclusion wouldn't change, The outcome would simply be different. Instead of a potentially fatal injury to deal with you could just get on with the business of whacking them in the head with your baton.

You forgot about the extra range and a few other things that make the baton better than a knife like public (particularly the recipient) acceptance, easier training etc but feel free to rant/troll on with this topic that you seem to have such a wealth of knowledge on.............

[Patrick]

Aye?, he excelled at it, killed him with one thrust, How much better can you get?

Sure, If your going for style you could draw it out a bit, a few stabs here,a few stabs there, a poke in the eye ball, whatever.

But as far as confronting someone on the street, and killing them, he nailed it.

Now put him in Jail.



That aside, which part of stabbing someone in the heart is hardly trying to kill?

Way too much ranting here... 11 pages already...

I hear the kid was Japanese... it was hari kari... He was a no hope loser who wanted to end it all...

So, Its all about the extra range, Hell, carry a sword then.

As according to your logic the odds of killing someone with a deadly fuckin weapon don't come into the equation.


Public acceptance,ffs, Yeah no shit we wouldn't accept you guys running around stabbing people, It all goes back to the point your blind to, there's more chance of death.

Going back to the start I think the topic was the intent of the stabber...my how we've gone off topic.
