The thing that gets me - damn CNN again - is that they make a big whoopdeedoo about the brothers, how they're "living the American Dream", how they're "good kids", yada ya. Just like the little shitheads who raped that girl in Ohio, CNN making the big deal about how they were star football players and what not, how "their lives are ruined" - where's this sympathy for rapists and murderers coming from? How about the victims, eh?
they're always "good kids", they're always "the good neighbours", and they're always "the family people"....
but as long as there is a chance of someone slipping off the law and harming others, there will be harm done.
basically, because
they canwhether or not they are caught afterwards, there's nothing stopping them from ever plotting something like that.
hell, I have the materials for a molotov arsenal in my back yard's shed... I could set the whole block on fire, and nobody would ever get any warnings until it was too late.
the thing is: everyone, at some point in their lives, gets the knowledge on how to harm other beings... it's human nature (we wouldn't be humans if we hadn't developed the spear for hunting, or the fire for cooking)
you can't give any serious understanding or forgiveness to these men, but it gets you thinking about the "how" they got to think about the act of causing harm to others
the sooner we understand that violence is not a sickness but a symptom, the sooneer we will get rid of the actual disease, and the sooner we will change this world.
...come on.. this is supposed to be a Star Trek fan site... aren't you guys supposed to understand this phylosophy thing already? XD
