killerofjoy605 Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 Ultimately I think it's a good thing that one was alive so people can get answers and justice can be served. On the other hand, all of the conservatives on my Facebook feed expressed pure anger not to the fact that this tragedy took place, but that he will have free healthcare, room/board, food, etc., for the rest of his life at the expense of our tax dollars. It would cost more to kill him then to let him rot in jail. It's not like he won't be treated like crap by guards and inmates, also a life time in there seems worse then death. I'm glad he's still alive so we can get proper answers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lemongoat Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 How do you figure it would cost more to kill him? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebiglebowski Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 How do you figure it would cost more to kill him? That is a topic that is gone back and forth on even by scholars who spend years trying to really answer the question. You can type the question into google for more info. The honest answer -- both routes are freaking expensive (will cost us millions). But it's not an easy answer and really cost should just be taken out of the equation when deciding on capital punishment, cause there is no consensus. It's mostly a moral issue.

lemongoat Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 What cost are we talking about for killing him? Appeals? I do like the idea of how he would be treated as a smooth looking 130 pound kid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 aziz just announced a benefit show in boston on sunday, 100% of ticket price going to the victims. i'm kind of regretting all that money i spent going to the sox game now, because i don't think i'll be able to afford something that's guaranteed to be awesome.

jerseydave77 Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 The conspiracy shit will never die. The photos of the third guy stripped naked is being called brother one all over the Internet.

Although, it's just an unfortunate coincidence, its just like... shit. yeah, quite understandable. on another note, i'm not a 'free jahar' person, but i am not a 'off with his head' merrrrica person either. i feel for the victims of the bombing and the officer killed, but in my heart of hearts i really feel for Dzhokhar, if telling the truth; that his brother was the mastermind and his family saying how he idolized his brother and followed him around like a puppy dog. i really feel for him, its very unfortunate that he found it necessary to do what they did. its sad to see that young people can be so easily influenced and do such terrible things and in result, others hurt and/or killed in the bombing, like that young boy that died will never be able to experience all of their gifts.

Guest Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 sure, his brother may have brain washed him- idolizing your big brother is not uncommon at all. but when you're swaggin' around like a remorseless little shit... watching your work, going to the gym, partying... i can't feel sorry at all. once he was on his own on friday, without big brother there to lead the way and tell him what to do, he had the chance to just give up. instead, he dragged it along for 12 hours.

dreamover Posted April 24, 2013 Author Share Posted April 24, 2013 i would just love to hear him speak (or see him communicate somehow). I'd like to hear his side. I'm no conspiracy theorist, but I do not take everything I hear on TV by face value. I assume it's not completely true, and there's always more to the story. After the last week, and seeing that the media can be more incorrect than correct, I reserve all judgement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 he could of, but he could of been in fear he would of been killed like his brother. i don't mean to defend his actions in the slighest, i just feel bad for a guy that seems like he enjoyed an american lifestyle and he was then convinced otherwise. its just sad to me. my thoughts too. he should be punished to the fullest, but I cant help feel that he got pulled into this entire mess because of his brother-worship Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
circuit bored records Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 I don't mean to sound like a right now dick but I probably will. All of this "brainwashing" talk is making me feel sick, whether it's referring to the younger or older brother. I haven't really felt this strongly about this story up until today when I read (not on here) multiple stories about these kids being "good kids" who were brainwashed by someone else or some other entity. Any adult who has to use brainwashing as an excuse, especially when it comes to justifying taking another human life is absolutely fucking ridiculous to me. All human beings have their own brains and choose what to do with them, regardless of being influenced by someone else. And if you're that easily influenced by someone to kill another in the name of your religion (cult) or whatever reason, then you don't deserve to be a member of society, period. You lost your chance, and a long time ago at that. I don't feel bad, sympathetic or anything for either of the brothers. Let him rot. lonesomexloveus 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 i completely agree. again, the way i refer to it is just influence. i would never imagine that he's performing some mental hijinks to take over his brother's head. some kids get influenced into doing heroine. this kid was likely influenced into murdering people. doesn't make him any less a piece of sht.

futures Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 That's fabulous. She managed to see that (which I can only assume is the conspiracy theory, I can't open it while at work), but admitted in the article that she hadn't seen any actual footage from the bombing.
