yeah it's all very tragic
I find it hilarious that the Taliban are condemning him. Good one chief...it's not like ya'll don't kill more civies than the U.S. has in the whole 10 year war in two countries, not even counting mutilation.
Again, I can't stand this attitude.
Almost 17,000 Americans were killed by other Americans last year. So I guess that makes the World Trade Center ok, because that was less than 3,000 people.
Pointless murder is pointless murder. It doesn't matter where you live.
And yeah, I understand that they are supposed to be the "bad guys" and we are supposed to be the "good guys" but that actually makes it even worse. You expect the evil people to kill kids. You expect the good guys to save them.
What was wrong with my attitude? We have one crazy kill 16 people and the whole U.S. military is comprised of evil child murderers. Most Americans have no clue what the "bad guys" do over there, and most of it is just religious shit. How about that famous girl who had her nose and ears cut off for running away from her abusive husband?
I don't get your point about the 17,000 Americans, well I don't get it in context to what I was saying.
Shifty, my point was that you are justifying murder because you don't like the people that were murdered. Or you are at least saying it is no big deal because they are the bad guys.
If we lived in a perfect, crimeless Utopia, THEN we could start trying to "fix" the rest of the world. But I guess those people don't have a right to run their country in the way they believe.
Do they mutilate people? Yes.
Do we? Yes.
Do they murder people? Yes.
Do we? Yes.
Are we better than anyone else on the planet? Think about your answer there.
There are a number of people on this thread that have implied that it is no big deal for these murders to have taken place because hey, the people "over there" are murderers anyway, and we just beat them to it.
Let's do an exercise, and invent a fake country. Now let's pretend we live in that fake country together, and we all have that same superior attitude. Now lets discuss a foreign country, a country known as America.
America has about 17,000 murders every year. They are a bunch of murders and therefore if any of us kill any of them, it isn't a big deal. Afterall, we just beat them to it.
America endorses killing their babies before they are even born. They are evil.
America has about 100,000 rapes every year. They are a bunch of perverts and should be wiped out.
America has about 500,000 robberies every year. They are a bunch of thieves and should not be trusted.
America has around 1,000,000 assaults every year. They don't respect each other, why should we respect them?
America has about 2,500,000 burglaries every year... Be careful around them. They will sneak into your house at night and take everything you own.
America has almost 3,000,000 violent crimes against children, every year. They are monsters.
Only 30% of Americans approve of their government right now. We should free them!
Any country looks bad when you only look at the bad. But here is the thing... Are you willing to look at your bad? Or are you blindly going to just condemn everyone else? I am not saying we shouldn't help other places, but I AM saying we shouldn't consider other places inferior and act like: Oh big deal, we killed a bunch of your kids, you would have just gotten around to it eventually anyway. In fact, I think we freed them from a life of living in your shithole country. Their families should be thanking us. Let's give that guy some treatment and a medal. Then we can redeploy him a few months. Surely it won't happen again, but if it does, big deal... They are sand people Muslim terrorists. They all deserve to die anyway.
