Work Avoision
Absolutely hilarious. And it's funny 'cause it's true.
Brutal stuff in Medicine Hat.
What in the hell does a 12-year-old girl even have a boyfriend for? And that is one twisted 23-year-old, I might add. The problem with situations like this, is that the rotten bastard should have been thrown in jail for dating a 12-year-old LONG LONG before he had any chance to kill her family. Too bad we don't have capital punishment in this country, this guy would be the perfect case.
Zacarias Moussaoui's jury is deliberating this week. I have a sneaking suspision that the jury's gonna put the axe to the rotten bastard. I still can't get myself to believe that this guy is who he says he is, and for some illogical reason, that leads me to believe he doesn't deserve to die... yet.
Moussaoui has proven that he's a seedy prick. He screams out anti-American and anti-Western rants every time he leaves the court room. He's smiled in pure glee when tapes of 9/11 victims were played in court. I have no doubt in my mind he would kill every Westerner on the planet if he had the chance.
The thing is, he didn't have the chance. He was in jail on 9/11, and was not on a plane. The catch-phrase of the prosecution has been "He lied, 3000 people died", and for some reason this reminds me of the last episode of Seinfeld, when "the gang" was rounded up in jail under "The Good Samaritan Law". In the Seinfeld episode, they were jailed for NOT helping a guy they saw being robbed. It was a savage burn, no doubt about it - but it raises an interesting question about the law.
When you start charging people for crimes (and capital crimes are the worst!) for NOT doing something, where do you draw the line? An example... I hear the couple upstairs yelling and screaming at each other all the time, they really hate each other, absolutley no love. But if she were to kill him someday, should I be held responsible, just because I didn't step in, knowing there was something wrong? Most people realize this would be stupid.
If I were, however, to hear the lady upstairs plotting to kill her husband and I still did nothing about it, then I would have to bear some responsibility for his death - but there is no way I'd be charged with 1st degree murder, the way she would be.
There is a big difference between killing somebody and letting somebody be killed. Of course if you allow somebody to be killed, its brutal, and you should pay the price. But killing somebody (or 3000 somebodies) is a totally different ball-game. The whole trial has been wrapped up in hypotheticals "If Moussaoui had told investigators what he knew, he could have saved those people's lives". Which is a pretty lame-duck argument to kill a man. In Moussaoui's defence, he could make the argument that had he not been in jail for a month leading up to 9/11, he could have stopped the attack all together, and turned the 19 high-jackers into peace-loving Christian missionaries.
The other reason I don't think he should die, is that I think it's part of the plan. I'm a bit of a conspiracy theoriest, but I don't think it's going too far to assume this might have been part of the plan. Moussaoui would have distracted police at the time, and I'm sure that those Al-Qaeda thugs love the prospect of an Islamic extremist being executed by the American government after a high-profile trial. It could also explain the unbelievable lies this guy has been telling all along. He WANTS to die too badly to let him die.
I say, sentance him to community service with homosexual suburbanite females or soemthing, that'd really be punishment (for him that would be punishment, for me it would be a dream come true).
