OK, anymore opinions, anymore thoughts and stances to "prove" or even "be allowed to have a personal opinion" that exists on the order of "Humanity overall isn't as "shitty" as certain if not many individuals make it out to be" and that the Devil isn't as scary as people make him (or it?) out to be?
Do we HAVE to go into this direction Bloodshot? (I'd rather not, personally.) More so - is this even relevant to THIS topic overall?
Cool - hope others are also OK for it, including any controversial statements on the order of "Laws not always being fair" and the potential topic of female gender in say less than always 100% positive light in plain view.
Also, does this also concern women who are completely INNOCENT and also decent human beings WITH common sense, intelligence and nary a single prejudiced or wrongful thought or action, does this apply to them AS WELL?
I wonder why you give it all THIS much importance 123? Why do you care so much about it all?
I almost feel like paraphrasing the popular 70s disco pop hit "Disco Inferno" by The Trammps that goes "Burn baby burn, disco inferno" when I think of this movie instead, and go "Burn station burn, movie inferno, teh teh teh"... Lol :)
And what does 123Guy want?
Interesting, although I am not sure if I am familiar with such a movement, is it a German philosophical movement from something like Nietzsche's "Thus Spoke Zarathustra" movement or something to do with "Zeit" or even Zoro as in "The Mask of Zorro", not fully unlike that popular 2000 Antonio Banderas and Catherine Zeta-Jones flick?
Check out also the late 2010s film entitled "Burn" (2019) and also - tell me it wasn't at least PARTIALLY inspired by "Thursday" (1998) not least of which, the theme and scene of a female assailant (leave the rest to distant imagination) does something to a man of a related nature, whilst also having similar Tarantino-esque atmosphere and vibe to it. So yeah add "Burn" to that list too.
Yay, just basically wondering IF its ANY good...
I am more curious what us common folks in the General board think of it, hence...
I go for anti-hero.
Pretty much yeah but then again most of those robbers were portrayed as villains and Waingro for example was downright evil for the many other things HE did especially.
While we're on this subject, have you actually for instance KNOWN someone who didn't do too much homework and was mostly BEHIND on their work for class subject etc but in the end, they still PASSED or even got top marks on some test, be it a Science or Maths end of year exam, some university project or even some college or university subject, and did that surprise you? Or have YOU been like that all, thanks.
And does killing someone who is a rapist and a murderer REALLY make you "no better than them", like that? Aren't those individuals very bad and dangerous? Do they really deserve to live (even if hopefully punished by law)? Where is the line between heroism, justifiable homicide and just sinking down to their level even if you put them down? Who decides and who is right here?
And HOW COME if it really IS so bad and possible and people KNOW IT TOO, then law, which is supposed to be above them, still organized death penalty in the first place or is it just another example of humanity, and legal system created by human beings, being far from ideal?
And what if you kill them in self defense for example?
As much as I sort of understand where folks are coming from, the overall issue feels very frustrating to me and also, God forgive, but if I or my family were in any way victims of such matter, I may not know how to react and I will be too distressed to be "rational". And that would make me no better than they are or, for example, I would be ON THEIR LEVEL??!!??!!??!!????
In wars for instance lots of bad things happen, but in WW2 for example, the Russians were defending themselves against Nazi invaders and killed many of them in defense and they were branded as heroes. And no professional sources or even civilized people would dare claim that they in the process (other matters aside notwithstanding, then again, loads of things happened in such times) fell down to their level. And should we be against defense killings like that too? Or is it DIFFERENT, even if it still involves taking another life, or is there something fundamentally different about death penalty that sets it all aside? My God, law's not perfect but still...
"You could argue it a justified murder, but it was murder nonetheless."
CONTEXT counts and there IS a difference.
It is in a way, yes.
Also, in your opinion, law or not - those offenses of hers doesn't make her a "bad person", correct, as flawed as she may have been? Also, in such establishments, like in other lesser ones, even for lesser offenses, do people get coddled and cuddled and told "don't worry, you have nothing to worry about, it was a mistake but we won't hold a grudge" sort of thing, and if they do or do not, do you think they are RIGHT (as in CORRECT) or... (Or maybe they asked her "Are you sorry?") Its all relative and also, this or anything else, is it entirely normal that the justice system even by people who are good and normal isn't universally looked upon in a perfectly favourable light, but then again, as with life in general, there are no real "good guys" and "bad guys" (or chicks - or even mostly people) right, and no heroes and no villains, correct?
And what on Earth stopped Lindsey Lohan from just being a peaceful, law abiding etc citizen and famous actress, to enjoy wealth and life and whatnot without ANY trouble with the law, DIY, drugs let alone "other worse offenses" (HOPE NOT, but don't worry, I won't go crazy here - my internet buddies and family occasionally "know" what I am up to these days with such mental topics) etc, or does fame and wealth really spoil people ESPECIALLY say Western ones?
"Failure's not an option" - as they say (also a quote from the movie "True Lies" (1994) that is now oh My God 30 years old.)
I can also tell (no offense but), you probably haven't given it too much thought, emotional importance etc in your life, but I sort of did, however, I myself don't have ALL the answers here but I am sometimes feeling as if I am objectively forced into broaching such questions.
Otherwise, you might have said "Well, that's a deep question, and I understand this and that, but actually oh yeah, it can be like this, but then, its because of men being this and mostly that, but also, yeah, its not that simple but its understandable as well"... Again, not telling you what to do (its entirely your choice) but just to give a rough idea of what I was approximately looking for.
