    But progress! 73 years ago today, George Stinney was electrocuted by South Carolina for the murder of two girls. He was black, they were white. He was also 14.

    I believe he was also later officially exonerated. :(

    Works for me!

    The justifications for that belief are just as horrible.

    Personally, I rather agree with the professor.

    I mean...what kind of doofus goes to North Korea -- frickin' NORTH KOREA -- in the first place, much less does anything that could get him in trouble.

    I'm not saying killing him was a nice thing. I just think he had it coming.

    He should never have been in North Korea in the first place, let alone breaking the law there.

    He didn't deserve what he got, but you can't say the guy wasn't stupid.

    Anakin.Skywalker CT1138 There is a world of difference between saying that someone made a stupid decision and saying that someone deserved to die for something like pulling down a poster.

    Are you saying we said he deserved to die?

    No, I don't think either of us said that, if I may speak for CT1138 too.

    He played with fire...a very big fire. He got what was coming, whether or not he deserved it.

    Quoted because this cannot be stated enough. Stupidity is not a capital offense and should not be in any part of the world. Putting the blame on Warmbier looks like an endorsement or at least a shrugging off of the behavior of the North Korean government.

    He wasn't charged and killed with being stupid.

    Stupid got him charged and killed. You do not, as an individual, tick off a country like North Korea.

    Stupid kills.

    "Stupid got him charged and killed" does not change what I said.

    This is the Hating Humans thread, and the humans we should be hating are the North Koreans who killed him.

    It does not matter if he was stupid. Saying that he got what was coming to him is the same as saying that what North Korean did was acceptable.

    It was not. Straight up trolling this thread to say that it was.

    lol. I meant he got what he deserved in the sense that he had it coming, and shouldn't have been messing around like that. He got the punishment I think quite a few people could see coming. I do not believe (and I don't think the professor does, either) that stupidity deserves capital punishment. But did he do something that could bring about his death? Absolutely, whether it was "fair" or not.

    Although I don't agree with any of what you just said, I will let it go because, as a moderator, you have declared it trolling.

    Instead of backtracking, just take ownership of your inhumane beliefs.

    Hey, I never said I was a nice person. I have what most people would consider a really ****ed up sense of justice and fairness.

    I really must agree with Anakin.Skywalker here. It's no different from somebody going to, say, Nazi Germany in 1937 and vandalizing their hate posters. There's simply certain ways you behave when you choose to visit a known human rights violating dictatorship where you don't have the same rights you have at home, and vandalizing the propaganda posters is a quick way to get in trouble. I will repeat, because I'm sure somebody will have reading comprehension problems: he did not deserve to die for this. He should have been banned from the country the moment it happened. Is NK to blame for his death? Absolutely, but you can't deny that Warmbier isn't at the least partially to blame for the start of the whole debacle in the first place.

    I think we've all said our piece here and this is not going anywhere good. Let's find some other humans to hate.
