I feel like most parents would want or need to see the child one last time for closure reasons so I don't think DNA would change anything. I still can't think of anything worse.
Fingerprints would work. But people identify loved ones everyday, shitty yes, but they still do it. Which is pretty much my point, it is shitty but seems to be what the law requires. Unless someone can show me that the law will release a body based on dna or fingerprints.
and all anyone said is that they couldn't imagine having to do something like that and how it would be the worse they would have to do. Not sure why you felt the need to reply with the response you did.
This. I'm not a father or even married, but I know even if something that awful happened I would have to see it for my own eyes for reasons I can't explain.
Apparently some fucking faggot ass high school kid thought it'd be funny to make a twitter mocking the kids who died today. Here is a screen cap from the twitter page, NSFW Spoiler Well one of the elite hackers on the internet known as The Jester has figured out who it is. TMB has been known for helping in the cause for justice. Here is his facebook according to Jester. https://www.facebook.com/hsejuggalo ohhaithur BTH Let's see what you guys got.
I have to admit I got nervous when I saw General Duck posted itt after the carnage he's provided us in the Alive or Not gifs thread.
I can't sleep. Things like these shootings would be sad to me in the past, but now that I have a kid it makes me physically sick to my stomach.
I was barely functional because of the Sandusky stuff for a couple days. I got sick really bad from it. I don't know if it's better or not, but this incident just has me numb.
I got drunk as I could trying to not think about this deal. I can honestly say I think the world overall is a permanently worse place for me after this event. I was a history major and I studied mankinds greatest atrocities at length, but this fucked me up in a really different way.
To me it's fucking morbid. Why have that be your last memory. I had an option to view my grandpa, but I preferred to remember the last time I saw him living.
I had to perform CPR on my best friend's dad in his front yard after he collapsed while mowing his lawn... I'll never forget the look in his eyes while he was laying there (he had a massive aneurysm and pretty much died instantly). I had to go to his viewing just to have one last memory of him other than that image of him dead as a door nail looking back at me while I tried my best to resuscitate him
The crime happened on 12/14... 12+14=26 The killer was 20 years old... 26-20=6 There were 3 guns on the scene... 6 6 6 IT WAS A SATANIC RITUAL MASS KILLING!!!!!!! And you wonder why nobody even likes you.
I can't imagine how much therapy every parent/officer who had to visit that crime scene is going to need after seeing that I can't even imagine and the thought of what the inside of that school must look/have looked like makes me sick
I could walk in to any of our schools at any time. I will be having a diacussion with our Superintendent very soon.
Soledad O'Brien is having a hard time keeping it together while interviewing these parents right now.
Still won't watch coverage because I know I'll rage about the retarded questions/statements from the media.
Did we get a name? His fb page is down already but I'm sure the HSE in his profile refers to a school/area that's only about 10-15 away. Would be willing to go call this fat faggot out. And then have him make me a blizzard. edit- nevermind found it
i'm just saying i'm seeing all these people talking about how its the worst thing in the history of man and how they are physically sick
I'm surprised God went to a larger font, let alone bold. Something tells me that's not actually God putting His words on a tee shirt. :skepticalhippo:
what the fuck? where else would we go talk about it? it's not like i haven't talked about it with other people besides tmb
Where else exactly are they supposed to do it? The whole point of this place existing is giving an outlet for the posters here to discuss topics in ways they couldn't normally. As for people being extremely upset by this, I would imagine it's not only the fact that 20 small children were murdered in cold blood for no reason, but that it happened in a place where parents leave their kids for extended periods of time almost every day because a school is just assumed to be a safe place. It worries you about your own children, whether "rational" or not, and you become terrified of the remote possibility that it could happen to them.
I'm trying to put this into to words, but the more I think about it the more it just fucks me up. These were little kids. I don't know if you have kids, or have ever worked with kids, but they likely had no clue what was going on in that class room. They've never seen/heard a gun before, probably had no concept of what murder/death is, and were stuck in a room without their parents while some psycho started shooting. Just hearing that little girl talk about how other kids were getting stomach aches reminded me how innocent kids are and how clueless and terrified the ones in that room were. This is really tearing me up...
It's terrible. My son is 5 and is in kindergarten. 2 nights ago, they had their Christmas concert. 27 kids. I LOVE my son, and would rip out someone's trachea just for threatening him, let alone harming him. I just keep crying for all those little babies that are gone, and their families who are left with COMPLETE emotional devistation. I guess it's called transference. (sp?)
Some of us have kids and/or coach kids in this age group. Using tmb as a medium to express feelings is easier for a group of hardasses than it would be to talk to someone IRL I have had talks with my wife and my kids about it. I like to think that I'm one of the biggest dicks on this board but even I can't stomach a bunch of 5 year olds being subjected to this real life violence. It's one of the worst crimes on our soil, and the victims are babies
