And here I thought I was done hearing about collar bombs after Marjorie Diehl Armstrong got life in prison.
Oh cool, I didn't know we were such great pals and you knew everything about me.BanicRhys said:I said it was an illogical hatred, didn't I?Sneaky-Pie said:Yes, it only makes sense that because someone has more money than you it's good for them to get a bomb strapped to their neck and the potential to die.BanicRhys said:I was all "damn, poor her".
Then I heard she was 18 and living in the one of Australia's richest suburbs. After that I was all "serves you right". I know it's illogical but I hate all rich people with extreme prejudice, especially the female teenage ones.
Makes total sense and I applaud your total lack of compassion for another human being.
Btw, don't pretend you really care about her. If you do you're either deluded or lying to yourself. She's someone I'll never meet, regardless of whether she lives or dies, her death will not affect me at all so yes, I do not care about her situation and I do not care if she dies.
You're not even in the same country as her, your media might not even mention her death (should it happen), so why do you care so much about someone you didn't know existed up until today?Sneaky-Pie said:Oh cool, I didn't know we were such great pals and you knew everything about me.
If I didn't care about the girl I wouldn't have through the trouble of posting a news story asking Australian locals if they knew more about what was going on. You don't care about the girl and that's fine, but don't assume that everyone else is like you.
We should hang out more often.
It's an emotive story, just roll with it. I'm pretty sure I empathise more with this girl who lives many suburbs away from me than I do with the person who lives 4 houses down atm and that's just how psychology works (in normal people) . Seriously though empathy is not calculated with a map.BanicRhys said:You're not even in the same country as her, your media might not even mention her death (should it happen), so why do you care so much about someone you didn't know existed up until today?Sneaky-Pie said:Oh cool, I didn't know we were such great pals and you knew everything about me.

I don't know, I just might not understand your point of view because I've never been given a reason to care about my fellow man.
So, just because someone else is from another country, I should not care about whether they live or die? They're a human being, like me and you.BanicRhys said:You're not even in the same country as her, your media might not even mention her death (should it happen), so why do you care so much about someone you didn't know existed up until today?Sneaky-Pie said:Oh cool, I didn't know we were such great pals and you knew everything about me.

I am a horrible person for laughing at that.DeadlyYellow said:I'm surprised she's so calm. Most people would really lose their head in panic.The Rockerfly said:Loks like she could of had

YEEEEEAAAAAAHHHH

Just because the situation doesn't effect us doesn't mean we can't think its completely horribleBanicRhys said:I said it was an illogical hatred, didn't I?Sneaky-Pie said:Yes, it only makes sense that because someone has more money than you it's good for them to get a bomb strapped to their neck and the potential to die.BanicRhys said:I was all "damn, poor her".

I wouldn't wish this kind of thing on anyone, but seeing as it has and I can't do anything about it, why should I care?
