George Lucas wrote it, not me. But point stands.

I'm gonna go out on a limb here an assume that this guy was a typical immature bully prick in school and that he wanted a PS3 only so that he could either sell it or use it to play some mindles FPS that so many of these frat-fucks enjoy playing.
Conclusion: Mourning the death of one of those so called "people" is like mourning the death of an insect.

What gives you the right to assume anything about his character?
Secondly, are you saying there isn't anything possibly redeeming in a "bully prick"?

What gives me the right? Well not only did the guy steal the PS3 but he um....BROKE THE VICTIMS JAW! Criminals like that are usually the types who barely have the intelligence to spell the word "decency", so they go through life hitting things and hope for the best. These people need to be eliminated.

Oddly enough, I have zero tolerance on a few things, but when I got the Myers-Briggs test done by a psychologist about 10 years ago, they found that compassion was one of my greatest attributes, heh. Something doesn't add up...

Also, how is he also not a victim? One man's jaw broken and his PS3 is stolen, one man is killed (and we don't know what happened there), which even the law says is not fitting punishment for his crimes.

I'm still waiting to find out if he, in fact, was one of the men involved in the robbery and beating.

If he were black I bet the situation would be more controversial.

I'm not really sure what naive means, Solid. I understand definitely that nobody's an angel though, and wearing a uniform certainly doesn't change that. I'm just hoping you aren't trashing what I said on my earlier post.

I just see this as another example of police brutality.

Well, this thread is oddly interesting - lots of people who are very quick to judge the police, and at the same time oddly unwilling to allow anyone to judge the person who was shot.
So, I'm confused; can someone perhaps tell me what the stance is? Is consensus that judging people based on a single action is wrong - or not?
