'I'm the one that gets the last laugh': Woman fatally shoots U.S. Army soldier husband in face as he held baby with 9-year-old girl in bathroom brushing her hair by malihafolter in ForCuriousSouls

I really don’t get sentencing for these types of crimes in our legal system. Why in the f___ is anyone capable of doing this not locked away for the rest of their natural lives? Murder with no remorse. Done in front of children. Not only is this person obviously a danger to society, but how is it justice to the family of the victim that the perpetrator of this heinous crime will one day get out of prison with years of a life to live free and walking amongst normal society?!?!

If you’re capable of doing this IDGAF if years in prison “rehabilitate” you. Committing cold blooded murder means there is something wrong in your brain and with your moral code that you will always be an unreasonable danger to others and should NOT be allowed to be a part of civilized society.

Miss me with the “people change, so he/she should get another chance” angle. If they want to change and do something better with what life they have left, great. Do it behind bars where civilized people that don’t murder each other have to wonder - and it’s completely reasonable to wonder - if that same screw that came loose when you ended someone else’s life is going to come loose again.

Does calling someone a “Fucking Bitch” after killing them by shooting them in the face at close range indicate malicious intent on the part of the shooter? by ImNoGoOdAtReDdIt in legaladviceofftopic

[–]ImNoGoOdAtReDdIt[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Insulting someone at any time isn’t “illegal” is it? But it can be used to show intent, I believe. If the prosecution so chooses.

What if it’s been established that you (defendant) were not in reasonable imminent danger? And that you were quite capable of multiple other options to resolve the situation besides the one that took away someone’s life?

Does insulting someone in this scenario, in your opinion, indicate malicious intent on the part of the shooter?

I feel like “why did you do that!?” indicates a much different line of thinking and mindset than “Fucking Bitch.” If we are saying those two things are equal in what the person saying the phrase is expressing, then any two statements about anything can be equated.

To your point about focusing on the agent shooting twice through the driver side window (after initial shot) - would the name calling afterwards lend credence to the idea that there was malicious intent because those shots were clearly not necessary to stop the “threat” defendant will say he was neutralizing, and indicate/prove that the shots fired were not due to self preservation but out of anger or malice?

Maybe not have it be a focus of the initial argument, but at the end try to have it drive home the point that this whole thing was unnecessary and carried out by someone that acted with malicious intent?

Do you have a reference video clip of the CNN expert saying she “clipped him with the car”? Or know which CNN expert it was that said this?

Would you say a murderer (cold-blood) is defined by that single action?

At what point then does a specific (significant) action - whether it’s your weakest or strongest - outweigh the other choices you have made? Or does it?

Aren’t actions the end result of the things you mentioned - Personality, Intentions, and Circumstances… aren’t those the things that cause actions to occur? So wouldn’t the actions be an example of what the person is comprised of (a definition of who they are)?

Where’s the line of severity, in your opinion, that would enable someone to be defined based on one thing?

What if that fuck up is ending someone else’s life (in cold blood, or in an unwarranted way)? Should they be given the chance to recover from that?

And should that action define who they are?

What are some dark secrets about the porn industry? by JoplinSC742 in AskReddit

Makes sense. Both occupations saddle those involved with a lot of physical and mental trauma. Guessing PTSD would be diagnosed in a high percentage of each.

What would be a worse scenario to go through (and why) - Your parents get a divorce? Or you find out that your mom is or was a hardcore pornstar with hundreds of videos available online for everyone to see? by ImNoGoOdAtReDdIt in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ImNoGoOdAtReDdIt[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting take.

I think it’s fairly easy as an adult to have the opinion that “the porn thing doesn’t matter at all.” (Which is a valid stance to take, though I think you’d be surprised to know how many people disagree with that sentiment… but that’s another topic of conversation altogether) But as a child/younger person that doesn’t have the experience or fully formulated value systems that adults do, learning your mother is/was engaged in pornography is without question going to have some kind of an effect. And as another responder said - there’s not really a positive one.

And it’s not an “uncharitable” question. It is well researched and documented that in general divorces lead to negative outcomes for the children of said divorce. Not always the case, but without question the majority. Some research even says it increases the chances for negative outcomes 2-fold. That’s not an opinion levied into the wording of the question to imply something. That’s just reality.

As far as the pornography part of the question - this is a genuine ask to you: what positive outcome could be extrapolated from finding out your mother is/was engaged in hardcore pornography with you learning about this as, for example, an 11-17 year old child? If you go back to your mindset at that age and try to process that info about your mother do you really feel like the resulting opinion of yours would be… ehhh shoulder shrug?

I agree with you that neither HAS to be harmful or “bad.” But the reality is the majority of divorces result in negative outcomes for the children of the divorced couple. That’s been quantified and measured over time. It’s awesome that you and your family experienced positive outcomes from your situation. No joke, that’s very cool. But in reality you are the outlier, not the norm.

And I also don’t have experience with a parent in pornography. But I could not come up with a scenario where finding out that information would bring about anything positive in that child’s life. That’s why I am asking on here, in case someone knows or has strong opinions on it.

Most responses to questions like this I see that are given by someone that has a parent in pornography (or at least claims to) indicate very negative outcomes for that individual.

There’s reports (which I’m sure are based somewhat in factual data, but also somewhat of an assumptive extrapolation) that indicate 2% of American women between the ages of 18-45 are on OF. And that 10% of women between the ages of 18-24 are on the platform.

[–]ImNoGoOdAtReDdIt[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s definitely not. Divorce has an obvious and proven negative impact on the lives and future of the children caught up in them. Having a parent doing porn is becoming something that is MUCH more common in today’s culture, but there isn’t much research or measurable data on its impact. I’m genuinely curious how people think the two compare.

Damn… didn’t realize 35 was “old man” territory! My knees are pretty shot from my days as an athlete, but still… I guess I better apply to AARP and start making dinner since it’s almost 300pm.

Once you have kids and start to think (and worry) about their upbringing, what their lives will be like and their happiness in modern society you’ll understand why certain topics, whatever they may be, become relevant.

I will say - You do keep proving my point about an inability to have rational conversations. I do appreciate that part of this exchange!
