Yeah, as long as you want to allow people to be free, you have to accept that some people may use the freedom to do horrible things. That's life!

his parents, better than anyone, should've known he was unstable and should've gotten him help...not lock him up

How would they know that he's unstable?  He writes screwy scripts... so what?  That doesn't mean that he's going to go on a rampage.

I totally agree with iago on this one... there's little that could have been done.  It's sickeningly tragic, but it's just the way things are.
news reported that they thought he was suicidal

Kids at his school also said that they would not be surprised if he did go on a rampage.

friend saw an interview w/teacher of seung.
teacher said that she couldnt leave room of students while he was there because they were afraid of him.  they wouldnt enter class if he was the first one there.

... so? Lots of people are suicidal. What do you suggest, we line them up in front of a ditch and shoot them?

If we expect to have the freedom to live our own lives, we have to allow others that same privilege (right?). If my parents both die tomorrow, and I'm suicidal (note that I also read macabre literature), I don't want people locking me up.

Kids at his school also said that they would not be surprised if he did go on a rampage.
I'm sure that's said about a lot of people. Hindsight is 20:20 -- again, without locking up people randomly, there's nothing that could prevent it.

And if he refused? Then lock him up?

I'd bet that you're currently bloated like a water ballon on a hot summer's day.

That analogy doesn't even make sense.  Why would a water balloon be especially bloated on a hot summer's day? For your sake, I hope there wasn't too much logic testing on your LSAT.

It works in Firefox for me, you just suck.

And that video is fucked up. It sounds to me like he was pretty jealous of his classmates.

He hated rich people.....and blacks.  And whites.  Also, Mexicans, Native Americans, Indian, Europeans, other Asians, and just about everyone who wasn't him.
