Couldn't agree more.

Do you believe that you will see the end of the world as we know it in your life time? Are you taking any steps to prepare yourself?

I'm not talking about the end of life on Earth or the complete destruction of the Earth. I simply mean the break down of modern society and reverting back to a time without electricity and other modern conviences. This could be through plague, extreme weather or natural disaster, ect.

I find myself caught between preparing for a life in the modern world and preparing for the collapse of the modern world. Do you ever find yourself in the same conflict?

You won my contest.

You are the first person from Oklahoma I have seen in the forums.

I must say you are pulling things from your a**. This whole paragraph doesn't make any logical sense.

If the laws were simple and the people didn't follow the rules, why would you give them simpler rules to follow?

Why would you send your son to die so that people can have an easier time getting forgivness if the rules were simple to begin with?

If they were simple before Jesus, and we just didn't follow the rules, why couldn't we do it on our own?

If we couldn't do it on our own, how is that not God's fault for creating us with out the capability to attain forgivness for our sins?

I think religous people sometimes confuse logic and faith.

Forest Gump might be historically accurate but it's still fiction.

The bible is just like the stories of Greek mythology, which the prophets ripped off to write the bible in the first place, they are real people and real places but it's not what really happened.

There are just as many times where women poke holes in the condom to try and get pregnant. That happen to a friend of mine, he finally found one of the wrappers with holes in it and found out why she loved to be the one to put them on.

The issue was trust, I trusted someone I shouldn't have. She could have found a way even if I was wearing a condom. I would take responsibility for the child because I chose to have sex with her but all the responsibility for her getting pregnant goes to her.

Everyone eventually stops using condoms. They get a little expensive when you are having sex with the same person on a semi-daily basis for an extended period of time. She took the responsibility of maintaining birth control to prevent pregnancy, then she chose to stop taking it. I don't see where anything changed on my part to stop her from taking her birth control and preventing the pregnancy.

Way to dodge the question.

So if I tell a woman I'm wearing a condom and don't, it's her fault for not being on birth control if she gets pregnant?

I cant blame the woman for lying about using birth control? I can't blame a woman for pretending to be pregnant?

I cant blame her for talking me out of it but I can blame her for knowingly trying to get pregnant when telling me she is taking all nessicary procautions not to. I blame her for lying. If she said she wasn't taking her birth control I'd of tucked it back in my pants and drove to the store.

I'll admit this is very true.
Talking a man out of a condom isn't exactly a hard task in most cases though.
Lesson learned, that's for sure.

I don't see how this fits in male birth control. It's more about women saying they are taking it and lying.

I would totally use that if they had it on the market. I'd rather be sure at least one of us is using it.

using pregnancy as a weapon in their arsenal? If things aren't working with a man, how does getting/pretending to be pregnant help anything?

I'm only talking about purposefully doing this, not accidents.

When you show the worst side of yourself, and she sticks around.

There are so many articles about this case out there, it would be hard to find one that summed it up entirely and unbiased, since it is still being covered. I've been watching it on the news for a long time. Thats why I simply said to research it before posting.

I agree that he went too far. If the kid had died as a result of the first shot to the head, no problems from my view. When he came back and got another gun to finish the job, that's where the ole shawshank prosecution comes to play. If you take the time to reload or get another gun then you are taking the time to think about what you are doing. That's where he moved past the crime of passion/adrenaline rush, it was simply anger that was clouding his mind.

His reasoning for shooting the unarmed robber is that he was moving. In the video he is out of view, so you can't tell if he was moving or not. I'm sure he was moving...being shot in the head will do that to ya, conscience or not.

The pharmacist was also caught in a couple lies with his story. In his first report he said he shot him before chasing after the other robber and then when he gave statement to OSBI he said it was after. He also said something about another person outside pointing a shotgun at him, witnesses outside the store say they never saw the car or man he was speaking of.

I totally agree about not wanting us to become a nation of vigilates. This isn't the wild west anymore, there is more than enough law enforcement to go around, if not too much. You don't get to be judge and jury for someone who has commited a crime against you. Everyone deserves due process.

Thanks, but I missed all the good discussion. That and the article posted is BS, missing a lot of facts and poor wording. Oh well, my opinion is usually best left to myself anyways.

Has anyone heard about this guy?
I'm from Oklahoma so I've heard all about it.
He is the pharmacist who got life in prison for shooting and killing the 16yo who was attempting to rob his pharmacy.

Opinions?

I sudgest looking up the story/watching the video before commenting. It's an interesting case.
