cmotherofpirl Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 THe national news stories have said specifically that no motive was given by the boy. People kill people daily over many issues, it might have nothing to do with his supposed sexuality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vincent Vega Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 Gosh, so many problems with everything that went on there...it's a true shame it culminated in tragedy. I want to know, though, why any respectable parents (or any parents [i]period[/i]) would allow their child to dress like that. And cmum, good point.

They need to find a constructive way to deal with their frustration, but the fact that they HAVE frustration about the affront against their masculinity is a good sign to me. It's just really sad that this one boy took it so far as to kill someone.[/quote] boys fight about everything; if it wasn't cross-dressing it would have been something else. I don't read any good in this story. murder is murder - there is no consoling. Edited March 31, 2008 by tgoldson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking of putting a disclaimer about the fact that his homosexuality might not have been the motive in my message but I think my brain was elsewhere. Thanks for pointing that out.

Adrestia Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 I think he meant to say that it's good to be offended by immorality... but not to react to the offense with immoral behavior. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
