The whole story is messed up but tragic nonetheless. There's definitely more to the story than what the media is reporting (as with any story) but what I find most disturbing is the parents having to find this information out when they were on a holiday. What a way to end a holiday and talk about a disturbing reality to come back home to.

That is too funny.

I know Photon (he introduced me to CP); we worked at the same company in the past. He isnt asian.

I found it very interesting that you thought he was asain. It is interesting how our mind shapes an interpretation of what we read and think. Being that I know him a little, I cant even imagine how someone would think he is asain - but, hey, that is my mind shaping my interpretation based on what I know. It is kinda cool...

Asians aren't polite. Have you ever been to a chinese dinner?

I have never met photon but I have always thought of him at white. With brown hair. I don't know why.

You people are such newbies. Kage Bushin no Jitsu means "Shadow clone replication technique." It's pretty obvious Photon moonlights as a Ninja by night.

Haha, I like how my family and I were fighting over how to cook Oysters during hotpot. Good times. I also manage to burn myself because I couldn't wait dumping meat into boiling hot water.

HOLY !! my 2 cents on this story...

Well from about June to september i worked with a vietamese gentlemen by the name of Alex... but his real vietnese name was Vu... I'm pretty sure at the time he was 26 or so, so it would definately fit the age description, and last i heard of him it was probably roughly in January or so when he was heading down to Vietnam for a bit...

MY GOD THIS IS SO CREEPY!!! i'm gonna have to get to the bottom of this!!!

I suggest the next time anyone has any sort of bad customer service there, just swallow your toungue, smile, and gently walk out the door

I find this thread funny...it evolved from "Accused Murderer a Flames Fan" to "Is the Murderer a member" to "Who's all asian?" to "Neeper is asian" to "So am I! but I think Photon is asian" to "Photon likes japanese anime and eats rice, but he's white" to something completely non related to the thread. Too funny.

To be specific, the accused murderer is Vietnamese.

I'm Chinese so I'm off the hook.

But seriously guys, this is a really horrible thing. I can't believe what happened to this 18 year old girl. I'm surprised the families were okay with her going out with a 27-year old.

Wow, crazy crazy stuff, not something you hear everyday.

This thread is hilarious though, you guys crack me up. "yeah I think Photon is Asian".. hahaha who talks about stuff like that?

Is sort of interesting though, I've always had sort of an image in my head of those of you whom I've never met in person or seen a picture of.

What I find among most Asians is that their parents would mostly want them to go out with other members of their respective race. Chinese, Japanese, Vietnamese, you name it, even though some parents are open minded, most are not. It may be his extended family that she saw, but I can almost be certain some things from that trip when she was with him may be sprung something...

Oh... and I'm Chinese
