In the United States of America - due to a gun culture Australians will never understand - you are FIFTEEN TIMES more likely to be SHOT, WOUNDED or KILLED than you would in our homeland
Does the Federal Government website http://www.smartraveller.gov.au/zw-cgi/view/Advice/United_States_of_America warn you of this statistic ? NO HERE'S a thought ... Tim Fischer, Australian Politician, Urges Boycott Of U.S. Following Christopher Lane Shooting Death The Huffington Post 08/20/2013 4:47 pm EDT An Australian politician has urged tourists from that country to boycott the United States in response to the shooting death of Melbourne baseball player Christopher Lane. Tim Fischer, who served as deputy prime minister under John Howard from 1996 to 1999, urged Australians not to travel to the United States. He said that such a boycott would send a message about the need for tighter gun control regulations in the United States, according to News.com.au. "I am deeply angry about this because of the callous attitude of the three teenagers (but) it's a sign of the proliferation of guns on the ground in the USA," Fischer said this week. "This is the bitter harvest and legacy of the policies of the NRA..." As deputy prime minister, Fisher led Australia's gun control reforms in the late '90s alongside Howard http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/08/20/tim-fischer-boycott-us-christopher-lane_n_3786687.html |

There are three of them : Which one was last in the pecking order?
He's probably the one that pulled the trigger. It's quite possible that two of these kids had no intention of anyone getting shot. I would interrogate them very thoroughly to see who actually pulled the trigger, and if this shooting of a person was a surprise to the ones who didn't pull the trigger. Did they all agree to shoot someone for the hell of it, or did one of them do this on an impulse? The bigger the crime, the more the obligation on the part of the investigators to make sure no one hangs for another's actions. |

Welfare? The US doesn't have welfare - not as we know it in Australia. For example, unemployment benefits are only paid for 6 months, and only for a person who lost a job through no fault of their own. Payments to families last only two years, and there is a lifetime maximum of five years. THe US has nearly 50 million people living in poverty - they have a higher percentage of people living in poverty than Indonesia! The US also has a very high number of people incarcerated for property crimes. The US has the highest incarceration rate in the world at 716 per 100,000. Australia has a much lower rate 130 per 100,000. |

But two blacks and a mulatto 'wasting' a white? The defence counsel will plead mitigating circumstances for reasons of ... 1. Their young age. 2. Their borderline-retard IQs. 3. Poor family background .. (yiolence; alcoholism; drug-taking) 4. Remorseful. 5. "Only meant to shoot at his feet to scare him" 6. Two of the three were shocked what the other did.

The point is the colour of the skin or racial background of the young men who committed this crime is highlighted by some in here who are pushing their racist wheel barrows again. I suggest people look into the mass murders and killings committed in western nations and they will see that almost all of them are NOT committed by people with dark skin. The statistics show that people with paler skin colour are more prone to evil senseless acts on a mass scale than people with dark skin. Care to explain this statistic? |

Henry Louis Wallace Between September of 1992 and March of 1994, Wallace raped and strangled nine young black women in Charolette, North Carolina. They were all people he knew Carlton Gary The victims were seven white women, the oldest victim was just shy of 90 years old. Celeophus Prince Jr Between January and September of 1990, he murdered six women in San Diego. He stabbed one of his victims over 50 times and left bloody circles around his victims breasts.

Title: Re: Aussie baseball player killed. Post by Winston Smith on Aug 22nd, 2013 at 2:59pm
For me the question is this; would capital punishment deter these sorts of crimes?
I think the certainty of capital punishment would deter potential murderers, but pose an increase in danger to the public when apprehending them. I think most people can agree on the concept of natural justice. We can have a liberal civilisation, with the harshest penalties reserved for the most heinous crimes. The only reason we don't have that now, is due to the attrition of rich people over time, mitigating the harshest effects of the law upon themselves and their families. Only a very few special interest groups would see any alternative but to take those individuals involved out the back, put them down like dogs and bury them in the woods. Of course if we had proper distribution of resources, the sort of deprivation that leads to this sort of thing could be totally avoided, but that's another story; one of the special interest groups. |
Title: Re: Aussie baseball player killed. Post by Quantum on Aug 22nd, 2013 at 3:18pm
I don't think any kind of punishment would deter these kind of people. It is clear that there is something far deeper at play than a lack of fear of punishment.
Three kids kill someone just for the sake of it. I could not even imagine one person being so messed up to do such a thing. But for three of them to all agree to do it is mind blowing. You would think that when the first person suggested such a thing the other two would say "WTF is wrong with you?". But no, they were more than willing to go along with it. Just as amazing is the fact that after they killed the bloke they seemed to do little to avoid the consequences of this action. They just didn't seem to care, and one was apparently finding the whole thing funny whilst being in court. He is looking at spending the rest of his life in gaol, and he finds the whole thing a joke? I don't know how the USA is ever going to fix the problems happening these days. There has always been crazy people, but now it is becoming an epidemic. Threat of death, banning guns, stopping violent video games, etc won't do anything. It is almost as if some people are born with some kind of brain mutation that no longer allows them to be human. |

But these types of rubbish need to be disposed of, if there is any crack at all in the resolve of civil society, a culture will form around exploiting it, that is just the nature of living things. So sad and cruel as it may seem, just as with the boat people, a line HAS to be drawn and allowed to sink in. It's that or allow us to bear arms and defend ourselves, but we have gone too far down the path of totalitarian oppression for that option.

How would you feel if you were? What if you were out walking alone one evening, minding your own business, out of view and earshot of anyone and you were approached by a thug intent on beating, robbing or raping you? This happens quite frequently, you can see it in the crime statistics. He doesn't care about the law and there are no police men around to protect you. What is stopping any thug from preying upon you or anyone else smaller or weaker than them? I have been randomly assaulted on many occasions, just by resisting thuggery or refusing to shut my mouth. The only thing that stopped me from being beaten to death or into a vegetative coma are the fact that I was young and fit, had a bit of martial arts training (not that it really helps), but more importantly I was usually carrying a mobile phone, a long razor sharp knife and pepper spray, which I am able to deploy when fleeing fails. But if something happened and I was caught I'd probably go to jail. Luckily for me I got through my younger years without anything serious happening. But unless you want to be submissive to any random thug who decides to make you his bitch, you have to face prison for defending yourself in Australia. |

No, being prepared to do whatever it takes will though. But this isn't about fear or statistics. It's about being able to meaningfully defend yourself against an assailant without breaking the law. Dismissing that assertion on the basis that you haven't personally been in that situation, is logically flawed. The only thing that might stop a thug is the consideration of the possibility they might die in the process. |

Not if you want to meaningfully defend yourself in a 'king hit', gangbashing, opportunistic violence culture. |

In the real world, violence isn't a planned and agreed to thing. One must often act pre-emtively, with weapons of some sort to avoid the worst of it. Waiting to get punched in the face or pushed to the ground before you retaliate too late. Last time I checked, you could only carry a small pen-knife in Australia, which won't help when poo gets real. |

Judging by the tone of the phone call to emergency services, I can assume that Lane had about 2 minutes of emergency service help delayed by the caller. Not that I am condemning the caller at all. Just that she didn't seem to have a clue as to how serious the shooting was, and how you could bleed out in minutes. The 911 dispatcher didn't seem all that fussed either, but I'm assuming that she did efficiently dispatch an ambulance and police to the scene. But atleast the caller didn't do something like keep walking or assume that the guy was drunk, like some have. So, good on her for that.

And what if there was nobody there to ring 911? Someone collapses on the ground, 911 assumes the worse case scenario. Unlikely lane would have survived with a shot in a chest even if he was shot in the car park of a major hospital. :'( |

Here's a phrase you should memorise: "I feared for my life and I didn't want to hurt anyone." Say this, and you won't be seeing court, let alone the inside of a prison cell. Well, not unless you stop "pre-emptively" attacking people with knives and pepper spray. Just how many times have you been jumped anyway? Perhaps you should stay away from those places? |

Wrong, what you need to do to defend yourself in the real world is often more than the law would deem necessary, depending on the mental state of your assailant. You are looking at unlawful wounding charges at a minimum, if you are serious about minimising your own risk of GBH. Also, your last comment is a logical fallacy. ::) |

Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing.

I wasn't blaming the caller for Lane's situation. I was talking about the fact that the caller was talking with Lane about the fact that he was shot. I doubt that you could say that Lane wouldn't have survived the shot if he was in the car park of the major hospital. Seems that he could have been stabilised and saved had the call been made sooner. |
