Nope. Usually that doesn't include dead neighbors ;-).

Really, i don't freaking care if he was smoking his mattress, eating seaweed or running 30-day-trials of fancy pills. As long he is not offfering that stuff at the kindergarten, i could not care less. That his behavior may cause problems with law enforcement should not come completely unexpected for him. They are not as understanding as we are....

What i care about is: he had regular altercations with his neighbor about his dogs, first the dogs turn up dead, than the neighbor turns up dead and he flees the country while the police wants to question him (which i would not consider unreasonable).

He was in custody a few months prior to the incident. He was treated as roughly as everybody else there. He wasn't killed, not even close. So the claims that he has to fear for his life from the police are not credible.

I am not to say if he's guilty or not. I am saying that he should face the investigation and the subsequent trial (if it comes to that). If he wishes to escape justice, he has to be arrested (as it is custom everywhere in the world). It is the country he has chosen to live in. So he has to follow the rules there.

You'd lock him up based on some sketchy details you read about online. I think the world would be a much safer place without that kind of gross injustice.

No, i would lock him up for constituting a flight risk while being involved in a murder case. If the things happened in the US as they happened in Belize, don't you think he would be in custody now (or having paid at least so much bail to make his appearance in trial likely). He takes pride in escaping the police of the country he decided to live in.

I was making a fun about the concentration on pure horsepower. Of course horesepower matters (a 0 hp car is surely now fun), but it isn't the most critical thing. Usually you get the best experience by balancing things out. To my experience, Nintendo is good at balancing.

I am a PC gamer by heart, but surely my WII is a hell lot of fun with just a fraction of the horsepower of my PC.

Try to say "I hope you'll dont find the bomb" while being patted down by the TSA. That will get you in handcuffs faster than you can say "free speech".

That's stupid, but neither insulting or offensive.

There ain't such thing as total freedom as long as you share this galaxy with others.

Boundaries are being checked and moved every day.

Currently they are moving the wrong way (in UK and elsewhere). We have to hold against it. But don't live under the assumption, there ever will be no boundaries.
