Murder is a way of life it seems. You got monkeys who kill other monkeys, ant's that attack and kill other ant nest's. Killer whales.. Even that piece of chicken your eating was murdered. The plant that was grown and killed so you could have that cup of coffee.. The list goes on people....

I know! It scares me because it's murder for entertainment....
I don't see that it is any different than a snuff film...without the sex.
It is televised execution, and one day they'll probably be legal and prime time, since some psychological think tank will find it does not affect the viewer at all except perhaps to make us more grateful for our own relatively improved situation.

PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. -- Police say a teen "brutally and mercilessly" hacked his parents to death with a hammer and then threw a house party via Facebook invites while their bodies remained in a locked bedroom. Port St. Lucie police were dispatched to 371 NE Grandeur Ave. at 4:20 a.m. Sunday on a tip that the 17-year-old had murdered his parents and the bodies remained inside the house.
Police arrived and were greeted by a "nervous and panicky" Tyler Hadley, 17, and evidence of a house party. Behind the locked master-bedroom door were the bodies of Blake, 54, and Mary-Jo Hadley, 47, Tyler's parents. The bodies were partially buried under household items with a hammer between the two bodies.
Police say the bodies were only partially hidden under linens, books, picture frames and towels.
What can be said about this gruesome horrible act? A 17 year old boy, a recent high school drop out. His parents worked for the local nuclear power plant. The kid recruited people for his party on facebook and the party goers did not know his parents lay murdered in a locked bedroom. Is this a sign of the times? I wonder if he was on or recently taken off anti-depressants?edit on 18-7-2011 by newcovenant because: (no reason given)
Tyler Hadley was arrested and charged with counts of 1st degree murder and is being heldwithout bond. Police say he will be charged as an adult. Police say Tyler Hadley dropped out of classes at St. Lucie West Centennial High School and had apparently attempted diploma completion programs at two other schools.
After graduating I found at during College in the Fall that when her mother passed her father & brother blamed her for it...she was being mentally & physically abused, raped, & who knows what on a continuous basis. I couldn't believe no one stepped in while we were in high school to help her. That fall she killed her father & brother, stabbed them over 135 times with 7 different knives. Such a shame...they drove her to it....
We so quickly react with calls of violence. I don't, I react with calls for love. What drives a kid to be this way? If we learn from these events we help him and society, if we heap violence upon violence we feed the very problem we are trying to escape from
