| yea death is a bit much... anyone who has takin psychology would understand that there is a very crucial part of the brain that makes a human better able to "think before they act" that doesnt develope until a person is around 25 years old. Its no excuse but everyone makes stupid decisions when they are young.. if they regret and feel remorse for what theyve done they should live and be happy and never do it again. if they live to do it again and do so, may thier spine shatter |

I dont feel sorry for someone who made the wrong one. Especially when a whole sh*tload of other people were capable of making the right decision (not stealing a car). If he feels no remorse for what he did and only feels bad for getting caught..... i hope he gets prison raped after he recovers. :fingersx: |

what do you mean by death is a bit much????? how would you know? have you ever died???? maybe it is the easist thing you will ever do in your life. i would say him being unable to move but still having a fully functional brain and living till he is a hundread would be far worse than death IMO.... cause then he would have nothing better to do but think of that one day, and wish he could take it back.... 80 years or regret is a far worse punishment than death... i think anywayz. |

| nobody just makes a mistaken judgement to steal a car. that's a lifestyle choice. he's spent his entire life getting up to this point. he probably grew up on the street with no parents to speak of, and well just as any computer programming teacher will tell you: "garbage in = garbage out". it's impossible to un-teach criminal shit like that everything they know in order to put more responsible and publicly productive programming in his head. we don't have that technology. just as a wifebeater doesn't learn his thing from tv, he learned it from his male role-model. you can teach him to hold back, but that will be secondary to his primary knowledge of violent problem solving and short-term thinking mindset. |

this is my point.. when they grow up in a position like that they really have no choice because thats what theyve learned...christians are christians because they were trained that way not becuase they believe in it and chose it from birth.. so i say again, after he spends a few months in jail and sees life the hard way maybe hed be smart enough to realise he aint gotta do stupid shit like that.. the kid was 17 fuckin years old..
lilwiener..if death isnt so bad why are you still alive... cuts ur wrist and come back and tell us how beautiful it is..
he stole a god damn $6000 car and you people think he deserves to die for that?? wtf you guys need some fuckin counselling... |

Umm I htink you got the wrong message there man. Why should someone die for stealing a car? Sure, I'm totally against theft/vandalism etc.. but death is a little harsh.
People are punished, not killed, for doing these things. Death penalty is a little extreme. If he did get hurt or died, well, that's his fault and he brought that upon himself when he stole and wrecked the car.
You could wander off and discuss how prison is a waste of taxpayers money, or some blah blah blah about the death penalty, or some other crap, but that isn't the topic of the thread.
Having said that, does anyone know what actually happened? |

I'm not sure what psychology course it is that you are familiar with. While it is true that the brain of an adolescent continues (through myelination) to develop, which in turn allows them to think more abstractly and to consider the consequences of their actions, no where in any research that I have seen, has anyone ever claimed that a human is unable to 'think before they act' before the age of 25.
The only cases where this may be the case is in instances of brain damage, such as Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder, in which case the impulse control area of the brain (frontal lobe), does in fact affect the ability of the person to judge the consequences of the actions.
From a moral perspective, most humans in our society have internalized societal laws years and years before 25.
If 25 was indeed the magical number, why then is the age of majority 18? And why would we as a society agree to hold teenagers and young adults accountable for their actions?

I never said he should die... I asked why they thought death was a bit much...considering none of us know what death is like, i never said he should die. i mean we could sit here all day and argue that he was a product of his environment and that we are the reason he stole that car and what not.... but I'm just saying that how would death be a punishment for him, if we dont know what its like, personally i'm agaist the death penalty, and agaist killing anyone, i think it would be a lil hard to explain to "THE MAN" when i meet him. I think death is more of a fear thing, but if you have lived your life being the best possible person you could be, then why would someone fear the god that you trust. Unless you dont believe. but i guess thats a lil off topic. |

Its not as simple as thinking before we act. its a portion of the brain that AIDS us in thinking before we act. It is more dominant in some people than it is in others. Some people have far better control than others. I did a 20 page essay on it about 5 years ago, theres alot more to it but considering the circumstances and how minisule this situation is im not about to re write that essay for everyone here =D |

What the hell do you need to know what death is like??
All you have to know is if you die you can't live your life its that simple, death shouldnt even be in the same sentence as stolen car as far as punishment goes. |

| Death may be a bit much but i guess it depends on the situation. If someone stole a new Lambo..... a car that the owner has so much pride in... something he worked so hard for... only to have it stolen and demolished. If you was that owner, wouldn't you wish the guy who stole your car was dead? I personally would. But i guess it depends on what type of person you are. Some people are more laid back, some are more vengeful and vendictive. |
