He was really arrogant. You know the type. He thought he was a super genius since he was a kind of smart kid, but he'd wasted his life lying and playing video games.

That always blows my mind too, at this point everyone has some basic idea of the scope of forensics, but nope I won't try to burn my house down with a sketchy old neon sign or something, just dump that gasoline baby!

someone i really dont like once walked in front of my car (illegally crossing the street) but i didn't run them over because from forensic files i know they'd be able to tell i didn't brake oh yeah and cause murder is bad

That one where the space heater actually did burn the woman's house down killing her son basically changed my position of the death penalty for eternity.

PetraCore posted:Yeah but if you leave it open as an option I think it's going to be used when people are emotionally very affected by what happened, and sometimes that can cloud things. Furthermore, I don't want to loving martyr someone. I want them to live out their life unable to ever hurt anyone else and to be cut off from media coverage of what they did. My concern with genocidal ppl or mass killers like Brevik is that ideas have power and letting them sit around spewing their poo poo into the world had very real consequences. Let them be martyrs. Timothy McVeigh the martyr is better than Timothy McVeigh the wackadoo writing letters to the alt right

This might be a dumb question but can't they just give people like Brevik and Luka Magnotta a different sentence where they are allowed zero access to the outside world? Magnotta is an attention whore and you have no idea how much it pisses me off that his bitching and moaning gets put into the press on top of him making relationship connections with outside sycophants. Also poo poo like Brevik getting a Playstation is what drives people to support the death penalty. I'm not saying I do, but maybe save those luxuries for literally anyone else in jail but him?

Because their legal systems view access to the outside world as a human right. The thing with rights is they apply to everyone.

How many people born after 1995 even know who McVeigh is? If he was still alive and had access to the internet, he'd be a loving hero to the alt right.

You don’t seem to understand rights. That’s like saying “why don’t we just shoot McVeigh on sight? Just revoke his trial rights!” That’s not how rights or laws work

Yawgmoth posted:Actually, I think you'll find that many laws have an "if you break this law you will lose a number of rights" clause built right in! Giving up due process is in no way comparable to losing your right to move about the country because you committed a crime and are now locked up in the pokey for 15 years. yes but cruel and unusual punishment isn't allowed. countries like norway consider locking someone in a room with nothing to do to be cruel and unusual, and i'm inclined to agree. the purspose of the death penalty is not to inflict pain - it's to remove the truly dangerous from our society. people like ted bundy who will kill if they escape, or mcveigh that will keep putting out hate. norway actually has a good thing going because brevik whining about his ps2 makes him look like a huge pussy, not a badass to be emulated

I wish Netflix had a shuffle feature for 23min shows. Especially when there’s like 200 of the things.

I wish they had a feature that let you delete the ones you know you aren't going to watch.

Aren't the URLs the same for each show for each user? Seems like with a little spidering you could make a site that uses redirects to do so...

Sorry if this is off topic but I figured this might be a good place to ask this: anyone have recs on sword and scale episodes to listen to? I finished all of Forensic Files, I had been listening to LPOTL a lot and it's good but I'm mostly caught up now. Or any other recs? I prefer stuff like FF that's sciencey or that mocks the perps (TIMOTHY THE NOODLE MCVEIGH) ala LPOTL rather than really cheesy dateline type stuff.

Netflix only has handpicked ones but if you click the following link, you'll have access to drat near all of the old ones for free. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=user?FilmRiseTrueCrime?playlists You can also find all of the New Detectives and FBI Files stuff on there.

I just watched a good one of that put out about the Good Guys store hostages. Robokomodo posted:I wish Netflix had a shuffle feature for 23min shows. Especially when there’s like 200 of the things.

A little more annoying to set up than Netflix but it will do exactly what you want. I don't have a goddamn episode of The Simpsons past 1998.

Apropos of nothing, there’s also a Netflix documentary series on the Indian cult that poisoned a small town, Wild, Wild World. It’s basically a pretty thorough explanation of what happened from the Rajneesh cult’s creation to the modern day incarnation, interviewing people from all sides involved... Though, uh, fair warning, there is a lot of implicit sympathy for the cult by the film makers, though they don’t deny any of the really screwy poo poo they pulled, either.
