SportsDino · 10-15-2009, 04:30 PM

If this is a hoax they should publicly flog whoever is behind it (and make them pay for it, even if it is over 20 years to do so). Maybe if its the kids being stupid they just have some sort of fine, but you shouldn't abuse the efforts of several dozen people trying to save a kid for a cheap laugh or some sort of publicity stunt.

Logan · 10-15-2009, 04:31 PM

My issue with these sorts of boxings is that, in all honesty, we're pretty much self-policing at this point when it comes to everything besides questionable coverage of titties. You have an overreaction, an explanation, and an apology. Done and moved on. Two people bicker or a bunch gang up on another...eventually it either loses steam or you agree to disagree, and you move on.

To box someone over word choice is just ridiculous at this point of the board's life.

That really was fantastic. If there was a QOTM devoted just to our female users, that would shoot right to the top of the list.

And yes, I thought the whole balloon thing was fairly comical. Btw, what's so much worse about joking over this rather than, say, a Darwin Awards thread?

If Lathum was going to get boxed, it really should have been for this:

I demand that you be boxed for demanding that I be boxed. And the next 3 people that post after this as well for good measure.

Ok I think it's clear there are people that can find humour in this situation, and people that think you're a horrible person for finding humour in the situation. Can we drop it at that?

SportsDino · 10-15-2009, 04:46 PM

I demand that there be a forum just for boxed people, since the population of people in the box may soon exceed that outside the box!

What type of society are when in when we place certain people over others? Kid, Adult, White, Black, Man, Woman, why should it matter?

I can tell I'm in the minority here and this is getting conflated with the boxing pretty hardcore which is something I'd like to avoid, so I'll step out. Obviously I disagree, but we'll leave it there.

You think the rape of an infant is the same as the rape of an adult? In your mind, you wouldn't consider one worse? Wouldn't demand more justice for one?

GoldenEagle · 10-15-2009, 04:58 PM

My first reaction is how stupid the parents can be to leave this sitting around the house unsecured. No one deserves to lose their kid, but its almost like they were just asking for it.

My reaction to the thread is wow. If Lathum would have said that to me, Logan, jbmagic, or anyone else not tight with SD there would be no banning.

SD is just stepping up and protecting one of his homies.

I think rape in general is bad, regardless of who the victim is.

Everyone here agrees that rape is bad (I hope). But that's not the issue, it's whether society treats victims differently. So if you heard about a 40 year old woman being raped, and then a 5 year old girl being raped, you would have the same exact reaction to each?

How about if you were on a sinking ship? Are you against the "Women and Children First" rule?

TCY Junkie · 10-15-2009, 05:23 PM

So SD should roll a dice and whatever # comes up in that many days he boxes someone. Then roll the dice again to see how many days. And repeat this process once someone is boxed. What's the odds of them all being bad dice rolls and having the most boxed on a certain day. I can't think of every thing so someone else should figure out a random way to pick the people. Not MJ4H though because I have a man crush on him, I like asian girls next to pools.

Well, we have hate crime laws and affirmative action in our society. We have age of consent laws in our society. We have specific laws against child abuse, and some states even have elder abuse laws.

But yes, let's complain about people finding it in poor taste to joke about a kid dying WHILE the situation is unfolding.

I'm with Ronnie... I just don't get this attitude.

gstelmack · 10-15-2009, 05:28 PM

I'm pretty sure someone saying FU to anyone plus calling them a douchebag is worthy of a boxing around here.

not really. especially not when that person has enough time to think about it and post an apology before the boxing even happens.
