...this type of person is unable to take responsibility for ruining their own life.

I'm aware this kind of information causes many people to shit bricks. I'm not interested in wasting my time arguing about it with morons. If you agree with it or not, it doesn't matter and I don't care.

Truth = Truth.
Ah Inazuma, where have you been of late with all your insane ramblings? I've actually kind of missed them. Perhaps you've been intimidated by the generally superior and somewhat more sane tirades offered by the returning champion of opinion, lordofduct?

In any case, you are either a special breed of troll or a really sad case.

Actually...

Special Breed of Troll = Really Sad Case

Just a protip, kiddo - if you are looking to make a serious argument about any subject at all you need to learn to stop with the sweeping generalizations. It obscures any valid claims you may have and makes you look like an idiot. In any case, it shows poor rhetorical form. Frankly, it suggests that since you can't figure out how to engage in basic argumentation with any thoughtfulness, you probably can't figure out too much else out about the world either...

And yes, I know I bit the troll bait. But it tastes SO good!

Generalizations are generally true. I just wanted to explain to people about the type of person the robber was. We know for a fact the robber is:
- Poor
- Has a child
- Believes in prayer
- Commits crimes

I love how you say I'm wrong but you never attempted to explain how exactly. If you want to prove me wrong and actually explain why, you are free to send me a PM. You can call me a troll but I'm really not one. Also, even if I was the biggest troll on the planet, that doesn't automatically make everything I say untrue.

Inazuma, that doesn't really narrow down the suspect list (especially the fact that the robber "commits crimes". Don't all robbers commit crimes?). C'mon, the police needs you!

Here we agree.

Troll ≠ Everything untrue

Watch guys, I can do this too.

I am
-a male
-a college student
-a gamer
-a non-drinker

HOLY SHIT THAT MEANS ALL COLLEGE STUDENTS ABSTAIN FROM ALCOHOL.
As pointed out above, correlation != causation. You cannot meaninglessly associate facts like that.

Actually Inazuma, you have convinced me that people should not have children. If only I could travel back in time and tip off your parents. :wink:

Leave Inazuma alone if he wants to blindly believe in something let him. :mrgreen:

This story just made me sad. Like all men he made a choice but he knew it was wrong. The fact that he only took $20, I don't know how much he could have gotten but it seemed he only wanted to take what he needed. I am not religious but I can envy anyone who can grasp on to something with such conviction despite the facts. I would rather believe that I go somewhere better when I die or that life has meaning but alas I can't. I hope he gets help and more people so such things won't happen. I don't know his life circumstances so I won't judge him. I hope I never feel that that is the only way I could survive. :cry:
