I just viewed the top CNN stories...you this crazy horror incident, a preacher killing his wife, and a sicko guilty of videotaping a torture death of a woman.

:eek: :( WTF is wrong with people??

This is why I hate watching the news, makes you think how scary life is out there.

It's not even a full moon or is it?

I can't even imagine the horror of that. One of the most disturbing things I've ever read.

hard to say what you would have done if you were actually there. Everyone, myself included, likes to think they would have done something to prevent it, or stop it and save the guys life, but until you're actually in a situation like that (not that there are many situations like that) there's no way of knowing what you would do

like i said in the MT thread, this guy had probably been stabbed with a hunting knife like ten times before anyone could even get out of their seats....then what? You run at a big guy with a rambo knife? Someone would have to be the leader in a counter-attack... I sure as fuck wouldn't.

I can't stop thinking about the family....imagine knowing that happened to your brother/son?....I really hope I don't find out I know anyone directly affected by this.

Just watched the local news on it...
They haven't even been able to charge the guy yet, he's still 'riled up' and in a holding cell.
They released the kids name...already a facebook tribute up.

True. I rarely get decapitated while riding my bike or driving my truck. I'm mean, a couple of times sure, but rarely...

on any public transport, i have a tendency to ride in the back, in the last seat. with my back against the wall. planes, trains, whatever.
like i'm some kinda mobster anticipating an attack. truth is, it IS for that sorta reason, i realize now.
i don't like the idea of stranger danger sitting behind me. if they're in front of me, i can see 'em comin.

yeah, me too

When I first heard about his I also wondered why some of the other travelers didn't try to help. I always wonder how I would have reacted. I mean.... the killer had a big knife apparently, and probably nobody else had a similar weapon - maybe a pocket knife or something. But it seems like you could have gotten baggage out of the overhead compartment and thrown it at him. If a lot of people did that with a lot of baggage maybe they could have stopped him. Or if there was a heavy tool or something to whack him in the head. But who knows? Maybe by the time that people realized what was happening the kid was dead. I feel so sorry for that boy.

Here is some updated info...the killer (no picture) has an Asian name...whats with that. Seems like lots of Asians are going around stabbing people...been in the news alot lately.

The vic's picture is there...what a shame. Turns out he wasnt sleeping. He was texting with his ex listening to music.

Actually that is how I am all the time and everywhere. I never sit with my back to a room and I like to see the exits . Paranoid? Probably...

Most people can't go from 0 to 'I have to stop a psycho with a big butcher knife' real quickly. Most people don't want any part of a situation with that much blood and violence and potential for bad injuries or death. I am curious as to how I would have reacted and I make no predictions.

his poor family...to know someone you love died like that...ugh. this story literally makes me nauseous.

and seriously, i sleep on public transportation daily...makes you think twice.
