LA train wreck

[BaronInEdmonton]

A man decided to kill himself by parking his car on train tracks in LA. At the last second he has a change of heart and jumps out. Unfortunately the train derails killing 11. The suicidal man is now being charged with 11 counts of murder. I wonder if they'll give him the 'needle'.

I heard about this, this morning...I actually live ten minutes from where it happened....I hope something very very bad happens to this man, and that he lives to be 150 years to live with it every day of his life. That would be much worse than offing himself.

He will regret not staying in the car while getting raped in prison.

When things go bad indeed.

Just throw him in solitary for the rest of his life. No need to kill him. Let him kill himself.

They should sew this guys eyelids open and leave him tied to a cactus in the middle of the desert.

Something pretty similair happened here last year. Only difference was the guy didnt change his mind but he took several others with him.

If these people are stupid enough to do something like that in the first place but dont have the balls to do the full deed themselves without endagering other peoples lives then hell mend them.

The families of the deceased should get to decide this guys fate.

Wierd, I thought I was in a courtroom with all these judges around...

Its one thing to believe this was a reprehensible act, and that the guy should be held responsibe. Its another to wish rape (see above) and illegal punishment on the guy. This is eye for an eye crap. Surely we've evolved our sense of the 'law' to avoid this type of shoot-from-the-hip justice and judgement. Or have we? :unsure:

Easy to say when you're not the one with a dead wife/husband/parent. Just try to imagine it from the victims families standpoint.

I hear you. We've all lost relatives, we all know the pain of losing loved ones.

That being said, there's an excellent reason why those affected by the crime are not those meting out the punishment. When you lose objectivity, justice tends to go with it.

Good point. I just have a hard time worrying about this guy getting fair treatment when he can't even kill himself properly. I mean, c'mon, how hard is it? No need to take others with you.

Thats the truth. I can't for the life of me understand why you'd pick _that_ way to commit suicide, esp. when considering you're killing others.

Why can't these people just swallow pills or shoot themselves? Just because they're life isn't worth living anymore doesn't mean ours isn't.
