Starting Over
JabbaJawz said:I'd still not fight tooth and nail - brain injury or not. And if he was truly 'brain injured' than WTF was he doing out in society?
So let me get this straight. My cousin that was struck from behind while traveling on foot ended up with severe brain injury should not be allowed in society for what someone else did to him.

Have you EVER seen anyone high on crack cocaine or Heroin? To see somebody that paranoid will scare you ½ to death, and yes, I believe somebody could kill another person being under the influence of CDS depending on what it is.
Marijuana is a gateway drug to the hard stuff and often they will lace it with PCP. I did not have knowledge of his prior arrest. I didn't see it when I ran him yesterday in the Judicial Case Search.
Jabba,
The hardest thing I have to do in my job is tell a parent they are an enabler to their child’s drug problem or problems in general.
Sex offenders are often the nicest people you’d ever meet and they do exactly what is asked of them, but I do not believe they will change and that it is only a matter of time before they commit the offense again. I’ve often wondered thou that if a person was molested as a child they would grow to hate that and the way it made them feel, never wanting to inflict that on another. I just don’t get people or their fragile little minds.
What difference does that make? He killed someone and should be punished for it.
In an ideal world, as a parent, you'd know that something was wrong with your kid and try to seek help for them before it comes to this.ememdee19 said:
I have no problem when an abuse victim kills their abuser. In Jabba's example, if the little girl had beaten her attacker to death with a crowbar, I'd have been the first one to say he had it coming and she should receive counseling but no punishment.
But I highly doubt that's what happened here. This is a 22 year old man we're talking about, not a little kid or some dippy woman who "can't" leave her abusive old man.
If he's a danger to others, that is correct - he shouldn't be allowed in society.redneck_woman said:

As a matter of fact I have and it's not a pretty sight.
My whole point was that if he was high due to smoking pot, I seriously doubt that pot could be used as the scapegoat. I'm not implying that drugs should be used as the scapegoat, nor should a mental illness or injury. But on the other hand, if it were crack or heroin, I could forsee that happening as it has many times in the past.
I have a feeling this will be turned into a case of temporary insanity or they'll use his "brain injury" as an excuse.

Right Where I Belong
I would have to agree. The man that murdered my brother was pretty much over the edge. However, the justice system failed my brother in his attempt to keep this guy away from him. His family, knowing that he was unstable, tried numerous times to get him commit but couldn't get him the help he needed.vraiblonde said:
youre an idiot, they charge extra if it is laced with PCP, and its no more a gateway than cigs and beer- douche
1st, why do I care what they charge for marijuana vs. marijuana laced with PCP?
2nd, did I say it was less than a gateway than any other addiction?
3rd, why do I gotta be a douche?
