    it's human nature to want to share things with others that shock you, for better or worse. it's a way of processing it yourself and being able to deal with it emotionally/mentally. as others have said....the title was clear. you don't want to read it-don't. simple as that.

    Human nature to want to share things with others that shock you?? Hardly!! It's all about shock mentality. And for the record, I didn't read the story. I don't have to.

    yeah, when something you find disturbing or shocking, sometimes it's difficult to process it. sometimes it helps to "hey, did you hear about.....?" with others. this is the internet equivalent of that.

    I doubt he posted the article so he could get views on a thread he posted. this isn't grade 4. gimme a break.

    I did not attack or slam anyone.
    Why post this? So disturbing and disgusting.

    Just a question followed by my reaction to the article.

    Nothing is off limits.Everything that happens in the world we live in is open to discussion.I want not just happy stories posted but ones that make me uncomfortable also.I think it's great to have a forum to discuss such issues.If you don't like it,don't read and don't comment.I for one encourage any all stories.
    It's responses and insight we get that help fuel the discussion.Post away BB.
    No censorship here.

    And I was also disgusted by the graphic pictures posted in the Gaza thread and asked people to post a link instead of posting the pictures here.

    I'm glad he got life in prison (hopefully with no chance for parole) and not the death penalty. I believe that a monster like this should have to live with the weight of his actions for the remainder of what is hopefully a long and brutal life. As a taxpayer, I would have no problem letting those dollars go to prolonging said suffering (and for anyone that has an issue with taxpayer's dollars going towards a human's suffering, they probably had better think about how many lives are lost from the over 50% of the USA's budget going towards military purposes, and what agendas the people who start these militaristic ventures possess).

    As for BS12's comment....
    But Badbrains, is there a discussion or debate you want to start from the story?

    I can think of a good one straight away: how we ought to witness man's inhumanity to man, to use these case studies to repel us from such atrocities, and to remind us to never let our moral compasses go on autopilot and deviate towards anything like it. The way I see it, we as humans are riding one car, and with no hands on the wheel, but full throttle on the accelerator, we can not simply proceed straight - we veer off course. We need to put a conscious effort to keep hands on the wheel, to be aware of our crooked tendencies, and to fight the collective momentum of evil with some sort of positive force.

    On the converse, a discussion could just as easily be had about the potential for becoming numb and desensitized in this fucked up modern society. I know I've certainly felt it from time to time, where I say to myself, "this is so incomprehensibly disturbing and wrong, yet I feel nothing".

    Hi BB

    You are correct monsters everywhere. This is sick and disturbing. Stick to your guns man. Hopefully people will post comments about this article and not question why you posted it, that just derails things.

    Sick post - death penalty for him no questions asked (or trial)

    No trial? Have I misunderstood your comment, or are you in fact advocating for no trial? Because our police service is perfect? They have never arrested the wrong guy, or acted on misinformation? With a quick search I could find one, or two, or a hundred, cases of people wrongfully accused or even wrongfully convicted of heinous crimes.

    These acts, if they did occur, are indescribably awful. We don't actually know if they did occur, and if they did, if this guy committed them.

    Since the original article has been removed I'm only going on memory from having seen the link to this article from the other thread, but I think this guy just got arrested over the weekend, so no finding of guilt yet.

    No. I did not even read the article for fear of puking.
    I assumed this was a guilty guy awaiting sentencing. So I jumped and said death to him.
    I can't even believe I am talking about this article, sick
    Having a bad thought in the brain and always saying what your bad thought in the brain is resonates with others and makes you say some things you don't want to.

    Really now. I stand my point as I made in that thread:
    Have images ever scarred your mind? Because I can read about them and wince, and not forget for a while, but the sight of something horrific tends to stay with you… much longer.
    Who knew that our feeds are protected thanks to those whose eyes are burned by gruesome and disgusting content. At the same time, I hate censorship, but this really makes you rethink things.
    Deviance will always reside in society, it's up to us whether we see it or not, perhaps? And how abundant it is in the public eye?
    I am one person, and I thank those who moderate disgusting content. And now I leave these toxic forums, thanks for posting stories meant to only shock.

    Shared in disbelief I think would be fairer.

    You speak to BB's motivation a little unfairly. I highly doubt he's perusing the web looking for awful things to post so he can be the 'King of Gross'.

    Thanks thirty, that's def NOT what I do. I share all kinds of stories both fucked up or in fun. I start threads that are jokes and I start threads that have to do with the real world. What gets me is that I try to make the title as clear as possible as to whoever doesn't want to read or see article/video can skip. No one told these people to click the link to watch or read. Don't like the headline, go post a pic of vedder in his thread.
