    Well, there goes another life to a living hell. Its his fault, right? He made an error.

    I personally have a very high regard for human life, more than anything else on this planet.
    I feel that we should nurture each other as absolutely best as possible. This is what I want for myself, for everyone.

    He caused psychological and social damage to some young women.
    Should society throw his life away now, forcing him into permanent submission to its will?
    Should society make him a slave? Shall we battle them in an area, to exact our price?

    Society should seek to repair him. When he has been evaluated as repaired, return his freedom to him.
    We should also examine and document this whole situation for science, for psychology.
    What happened to him?!? Why did he slip? What events or lack of events can he identify that lead him to his error?
    Run psychological evaluations of this man while treating him humanely. Treat him like a human being.
    Show him the respect of another living creature.
    Don't force him to be raped. Don't force him to be a slave. Don't force him to live in hell.

    Don't act out of anger, vengeance, hate or disgust. Act out of love.

    Act like a father, act like a mother, for society is our ultimate mother, ultimate father.

    No one is perfect. Everyone slips to their carnal callings.

    It is only out of mutual self-understanding that we continue to progress into our mutual full potential.

    Here is someone's son. He has hurt many daughters, no doubt, but he is still someone's son.
    If society decides to ruin his life, they will also be ruining the lives of his family.
    They will also be hurting the lives of all of their family friends.

    His children, should he bare, shall be affected. All of OUR future shall be affected. I want us to create a positive future.

    I don't want to live in a world where rape exists ANYWHERE, where murder exists.

    Where a reactive and non-proactive thoughts prevail.

    Please, can we love each other? Can we help each other?
    Must our response to people breaking rules is to always beat them down into painful submission?
    Must every vibrant and curious and creative soul that wanders out of bounds be crushed?

    Do you really think Google hasn't thought of this? I have no doubt that the algorithm makes use of all available options and without a doubt does so much faster and more efficiently than any human ever could.

    Humans are capable at doing many things well, but machines are entirely built from the ground up to serve a very specific purpose. That's why we have them - they're better than what a human could do.

    Humans - always thinking that they're something special just because they don't yet have anything obviously better than themselves to compare themselves to.

  5. So the "c" in the iPhone 5c stands for "cheap". No on Did Apple Make a Mistake By Releasing Two New iPhones? · · Score: 2

    So the "c" in the iPhone 5c stands for "cheap". Not in price, but in cost to produce.

    Up until now, when Apple released a new phone, the previous version would be sold for a hundred bucks less in order to offer a less expensive iPhone to the market. With the iPhone 5s coming out now, they've decided that they can produce a new, cheaper, uglier, easier to make version instead of continuing to produce the actual iPhone 5.

    In other words, if you're going to spend the money on an iPhone 5c, you would be way better off spending it on a used mint condition iPhone 5 instead of Apple's little bastard.

    You're right, that belief is not racist in and of itself. Racism is about *treating* people differently in any way because of the persons skin color, country of origin or ethnic background. It is not racist to believe something is more likely so long as you also recognize that it is also not definite - it only crosses the line into racism when you act based on that theory.

    You can use deadly force, with no duty to retreat, if you reasonably believe that deadly force is necessary to prevent serious bodily injury to yourself or another or to prevent the commission of a forcible felony. Deadly force, with no duty to retreat, is also allowed to prevent unlawful entry of your home, property or occupied vehicle or to prevent the hijacking of a plane or while attempting to take control of a plane that has been hijacked and is in flight. You can also use deadly force, with no duty to retreat, to prevent trespass or criminal interference with property that legally belongs to your immediate family or property you have the authority to protect.

    In your home, on your property, in an occupied motor vehicle, on an airplane during a hijacking, on property owned by your immediate family or any other property you have a legal right to protect.

    Everyone who is seeking to take this person's life away, whether by execution or by life imprisonment, are both seeking vengeance. This person is a human being and his life should still be valued. He obviously has psychological issues that need to be addressed.

    He, like most criminals, should be submitted to psychological institutions, offered high quality education, and, once certain they're psychologically stable with a bright future (post-education), released.

    People are like computers - if they have the wrong information running in their heads they're going to fuck up. Some more than others.
