200. Your friend that you were posting to?

They are gone. Mirt works quickly.

So filth is worse than you calling them monsters?

https://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1002&pid=9356874

Shall we replace monster in every sentence you said filth?

jberryhill
196. Justice without hatred is an empty gesture

The objects of justice must be hated.

If you do not hate, you lack virtue.

You must hate and dehumanize others to gain virtue.

These little pie of filth must be punished in the harshest possible way.

Evaluation and counseling? No. That would only be coddling a 14 year old piece of filth.

They should be locked up. All of them. For the longest possible time. No one should try to figure out what led to this behavior.

We know what led to this behavior. They are filth. Their parents are filth. Their friends are all filth.

And the only way to deal with filth is to lock them up and throw away the key!

To be clear. I never stated anything YOU posted. They are YOUR words not mine. I do not know why you are attacking me on words I NEVER SAID. You have been up and down this thread 30 times. Please just call it a night. You just railroaded a thread on a young man that drowned in front of 5 witnesses that laughed and jeered as he went down for the last time and they caught it all on video and cheered. Then went home to post it on social media never once notifying a soul. Not the authorities, not their parents. No one.

Florida Teens Will Face Charges After Mocking, Filming Death Of Drowning Man (UPDATED) [View all] sheshe2 Jul 2017 OP

This message was self-deleted by its author COLGATE4 Jul 2017 #1

Those are bullshit charges. They should be thrown out of court. COLGATE4 Jul 2017 #2

Public outrage demanded they find something to charge them with. EL34x4 Jul 2017 #3

And when a judge stops laughing long enough to throw COLGATE4 Jul 2017 #4

I agree. What they did was disgusting, but not a crime. VermontKevin Jul 2017 #13

It should be.. whathehell Jul 2017 #56

Right, or somesuch, elleng Jul 2017 #59

Yeah..There's a couple of posts here that I find disturbing whathehell Jul 2017 #60

Whathehell? Is all I have to say. sheshe2 Jul 2017 #80

Yep..That poster forgot to mention the victim was disabled too. whathehell Jul 2017 #83

Even with the disabled that only applies up to a point HockeyMom Jul 2017 #305

In pointing out the victim's disability, whathehell Jul 2017 #306

Amazing. cwydro Jul 2017 #112

It's not something I expected to see here. cwydro Jul 2017 #117

Yes, although I'd honestly be surprised to see it anywhere. whathehell Jul 2017 #207

Yes, as Democrats aren't we supposed to be about social responsibility? whathehell Jul 2017 #220

What is the definition of depraved indifference? Orrex Jul 2017 #273

I think they could be charged for filming it. forgotmylogin Jul 2017 #160

It is a crime...depraved indifference. Demsrule86 Jul 2017 #222

"Depraved indifference" is not a crime. It is an element or descriptor. VermontKevin Jul 2017 #259

how about not reporting an accident. demigoddess Jul 2017 #262

It can be a crime...I hope there are some charges against these terrible kids...they serial killers Demsrule86 Jul 2017 #266

In Washington state it is a crime Generic Other Jul 2017 #307

Somehow I think "laughing" might be just a tad inappropriate here.. whathehell Jul 2017 #71

Not laughing about the incident - laughing about the fool of COLGATE4 Jul 2017 #85

Yes, but given the context, whathehell Jul 2017 #205

Yes. (Retired) COLGATE4 Jul 2017 #267

"Depraved indifference" most clearly apply to racists who want to bellow Judi Lynn Jul 2017 #175

Did you read it all and have no outrage yourself? sheshe2 Jul 2017 #5

Yes but it is not a crime jberryhill Jul 2017 #9

But in the video, the observers say, "Oh he not coming back up" "He just died" aikoaiko Jul 2017 #35

Um jberryhill Jul 2017 #84

They left him and didn't tell anyone. kcr Jul 2017 #89

And if they called the medical examiner, he'd be alive? jberryhill Jul 2017 #93

Right. Laughing at him and doing nothing is the right move! kcr Jul 2017 #94

Excuse me? jberryhill Jul 2017 #96

You didn't? Could have fooled me with your posts in this thread. kcr Jul 2017 #98

Okay jberryhill Jul 2017 #100

I never claimed you approved of it. But it's clear you don't see anything wrong with it. kcr Jul 2017 #101

Again you couldn't be further from the truth jberryhill Jul 2017 #119

So what? Ask me how shocked I am that Florida doesn't have a law against this. kcr Jul 2017 #130

Will you be contacting your state legislators? jberryhill Jul 2017 #134

So you're going to double down kcr Jul 2017 #138

It will happen again jberryhill Jul 2017 #139

You are the one who is hung up on the legalities. kcr Jul 2017 #170

The title of this thread is "Florida Teens Face Charges" jberryhill Jul 2017 #171

You found it so disturbing that you were compelled to tell people it isn't illegal. kcr Jul 2017 #174

Hardly jberryhill Jul 2017 #176

So you have based everything you say here on the title of the article and nothing else. sheshe2 Jul 2017 #192

They are "little pieces of filth" as you put it jberryhill Jul 2017 #194

Pretty sure we cleared all this up in my post 200 sheshe2 Jul 2017 #202

It's a bad analogy. whathehell Jul 2017 #217

Here's a link jberryhill Jul 2017 #178

What's amazing? jberryhill Jul 2017 #125

Again. cwydro Jul 2017 #133

Then it should be. Mocking someone who is dying instead of doing anything at all to help like lunamagica Jul 2017 #146

I agree with you jberryhill Jul 2017 #149

Well, perhaps after this, it will be. lunamagica Jul 2017 #156

jberryhill once shot a man in Reno just to watch him die Orrex Jul 2017 #301

Thank you.. whathehell Jul 2017 #244

Hey, jberry sheshe2 Jul 2017 #97

Is that also a crime? jberryhill Jul 2017 #122

I think it is the least wrong, but it is the one that is codified. aikoaiko Jul 2017 #103

The law requires calling the ME, not someone else jberryhill Jul 2017 #127

Either way, but 911 dispatch can send the ME. aikoaiko Jul 2017 #140

Okay, so... jberryhill Jul 2017 #143

No I'm not, but apparently that's not against the law. aikoaiko Jul 2017 #147

Absurd.. whathehell Jul 2017 #209

Um.. whathehell Jul 2017 #215

It should be.. whathehell Jul 2017 #64

"Depraved indifference" is not a crime. It's an adjective. X_Digger Jul 2017 #118

Who is defending that behavior? jberryhill Jul 2017 #128

Still amazed. cwydro Jul 2017 #145

It's beyond mine too jberryhill Jul 2017 #151

Yet your focus has been on the law and that alone. sheshe2 Jul 2017 #166

This is one of two threads I've commented on this story jberryhill Jul 2017 #168

I did not say my OP was about criminal charges alone. sheshe2 Jul 2017 #181

No, the OP is about both common decency and criminal charges.. whathehell Jul 2017 #237

Apparently there are DUers who confuse General Discussion with a Law forum. whathehell Jul 2017 #226

It's less about "defending" and more about ignoring the absolute immorality of these acts whathehell Jul 2017 #218

It's not "hostility to the idea of legal sanctions" COLGATE4 Jul 2017 #254

Technically, no whathehell Jul 2017 #274

As an attorney my job is not to 'express disgust for the acts of the perpetrators'. It is to see COLGATE4 Jul 2017 #281

You're confusing morality with legality. COLGATE4 Jul 2017 #241

By virtue of the fact that we are a nation of laws which we have COLGATE4 Jul 2017 #280
